The 416E lets you get more done with less effort in a
more comfortable operator station, with a serviceable
extendible stick design and increased performance.

Operator Station

Comfort, visibility and style.

Experience a whole new level of comfort with the spacious E-Series operator station. The ergonomic,
automotive style enhances the operator environment. A narrow front dash provides excellent visibility
to the front bucket. Reduced vibration keeps operator fatigue low. In-cab storage compartment and
lockable tool and battery box provides ample space for tools and belongings. The operator station
also features an easy-to-read gauge cluster.

Air Suspension Seat

The standard air suspension seat is adjustable for a greater operating range and more comfortable
ride. A switch allows the seat to be tailored to support differing body weights. Adjustable seat height
accommodates all operators.

Improved Air Conditioning

The improved air conditioning system features enhanced air distribution and performance for a more
comfortable work environment. A nearly 20% increase in air ow over the D-Series combined with
improved louver locations provide superior operator comfort.

Backhoe Controls

Two mechanical control patterns are available: two lever excavator, and two lever backhoe.

Configurations

The 416E operator station is available in 5 options – ROPS Canopy, ROPS Canopy Plus, Utility Cab,
Utility Cab Plus and Utility Cab Plus with Air Conditioning. See Standard and Optional Equipment
for details.

Hydraulics

Load-sensing system matches power to demand.

The 416E has a load-sensing, closed center hydraulic system,
which closely matches power and ow to the demand needed
by the implements. So whether you’re in full trenching mode,
or delicately digging around services, you are in control.
In applications such as production trenching, speed is important
and the system will match the ow needed to get the job done
quickly and efciently. The load-sensing hydraulic system
also delivers:

A cooler hydraulic system•

Better fuel efciency•

Quieter operation•

Reduced wear on components•

Cat XT™-3 ES ToughGuard™ hoses combined with Cat
couplings and O-ring face seal ttings provide a leak-free
system. The 416E also features new ow-sharing hydraulic
valves, ensuring proportional ow of oil to all hydraulic
cylinders, providing greater control and improving multi­function performance.

Ride Control

Delivers even greater
operator comfort.

The optional Ride Control System smoothes the ride in
all conditions, including load and carry, highway roading,
or simply moving around the job site. It reduces machine
loping, providing a smooth and stable ride for increased
operator comfort and reduced operator fatigue. The Ride
Control option improves material retention in the loader
bucket for increased productivity and a cleaner job site.
The system is easily engaged by an On/Off switch on
the front console.

Power Train

Built for performance, power, reliability and fuel efficiency.

Cat Engine

The 416E features the Cat® C4.4 DITA (Direct Injection
Turbocharged Aftercooled) engine and meets all U.S. EPA
Tier 3/EU Stage IIIa emissions requirements. Horsepower and
torque rise deliver strong loading and roading performance.

The water separator service indicator ensures the •
operator is alerted when service is necessary.

Dry-type axial seal air cleaner with automatic, integrated •
dust ejection system for more efcient pre-separation.
Both air cleaner and precleaner functions are incorporated
into a single unit mounted under the hood.

Transmission

The Cat standard power shuttle transmission provides four
speeds forward and reverse. Hydraulically shifted clutches
allow on-the-go direction and travel speed shifts.

Hydraulic proportional control valves smooth speed •
and directional shifts.

Four Wheel Drive (4WD) option improves mobility •
and loader performance in poor underfoot and can
be activated on-the-go.

Maximum roading speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) for faster •
travel between job sites.

Cat Rear Axles are designed specically for demanding •
backhoe loader applications. Axles feature outboard
planetary gear sets for easy serviceability and brake
design improvements for longer service life.

Brake Mode Selector

The brake mode selector switch has three positions: two
wheel drive, two wheel drive with all wheel braking and four
wheel drive. Two wheel drive with all wheel braking provides
better tire life while roading and engages the front axle when
brakes are applied for improved braking performance.

Backhoe

Designed for high performance and easy service.

The E-Series backhoe delivers industry-leading digging forces. Serrated edges
on the stick provide improved material clamping for clearing and demolition
applications. The single pin bucket linkage contributes to best-in-class rotation
of 205 degrees for all applications.

E-Stick Design

The optional extendible stick (E-stick) increases reach and dig depth by approximately

1.2 meters (4 feet). The new design delivers increased life and easy in-eld adjustment
with common hand tools.

Curved Boom

The excavator-style boom is built for optimum performance and durability.
The curved design provides additional clearance over obstacles while digging
a trench or truck loading. The narrow boom enhances the viewing area to the
bucket and trench throughout the entire operating range.

Thumbs

Thumb mounting provisions are standard on every Cat Backhoe Loader for
added machine versatility. Hydraulic thumbs are available factory-installed.
Mechanical thumbs are available through your Cat Dealer.

Loader

Strong lift
and breakout.

Single Tilt

The standard single tilt loader
linkage on the 416E features
strong lift and breakout forces for
solid performance in backlling
and truck loading applications.
The 416E is equipped with either
a general purpose or multi-purpose
pin-on bucket to meet your
specic needs.

Return-to-Dig

The return-to-dig system reduces
loading cycle times by bringing
the loader bucket back to the dig
position with an easy pull of the
lever. By the time the loader bucket
is at ground level, the bucket is
angled correctly for the next load
or cut.
