C-Series skid steer loaders biggest and most powerful ever from Cat
These four new Cat C-Series skid steer loaders – models 246C, 256C, 262C, and 272C – are engineered for high performance. Units include electro-hydraulic joystick control of the hydrostatic drive system, and feature electronic torque management for smooth operation and high productivity. With an operating capacity of 3,250 pounds (1,474 kg), and 90 hp (67 kW), the vertical lift 272C is the largest capacity and most powerful skid steer loader Caterpillar has produced to date. The smaller 262C has an operating capacity of 2,700 pounds (1,225 kg) and also features vertical lift for enhanced truck loading capabilities. The 246C and 256C are radial lift machines with rated operating capacities of 2,150 pounds (975 kg) and 2,350 pounds (1,066 kg) respectively.
A 3.3-litre, turbocharged Cat 3044C DIT engine powers all four models. Both the 262C and 256C deliver 82 net hp (61 kW) and the 246C generates 73 net hp (54 kW).
Other key features and options of the C-Series skid steer loaders include: high lift, dig and tilt forces; a Cat XPS high-flow, high-pressure hydraulic system; a sealed and pressurized cab and an optional air suspension seat; excellent visibility; and a range of options.
