Overview

Powerful, Versatile, Agile

Save money and reduce transportation times with a robust machine for clearing, excavation, leveling, dump truck loading, slope work, and more. Track loaders offer reduced ground pressure and improved traction so you can start work earlier and work longer on soft soils. CAT® track loaders offer all of this, combined with superior performance and fuel efficiency.

Advantages

Versatility One Machine, Multiple Tasks

One operator, one machine for digging, loading, transporting, filling, etc. Fusion quick coupler allows for quick equipment changes. Loaders specially designed for waste, low ground pressure, ship berms, and steel mills, to get the job done.

Up to 10% Fuel Savings

Efficient Cat C7.1 engine. Automatic, Eco, and Power modes adapt to job performance to save fuel. Remote services and machine functions help save on maintenance and upkeep.

Get More Done!

Sized for easy maneuvering and transport with an optional Performance series bucket that increases productivity. Cat Payload technology optimizes bucket loading to speed up cycle times.

One Machine, Multiple Tasks

953 - One Machine, Multiple Tasks

Thanks to its power, traction, and flexibility, the crawler loader only requires one operator to do everything, from site cleaning to equipment installation to finishing work around buildings. The 953 is designed for tight spaces and ease of transport. The Fusion quick coupler allows you to quickly change equipment using a range of tools such as forks, buckets, etc., from wheel loaders and other Fusion-compatible machines. A choice of buckets/teeth, undercarriages, tracks, and equipment allows you to equip your machine for excellent performance in your applications. Configurations specially designed for waste handling, low ground pressure (LGP), ship berms, and steel mills are suitable for the most challenging applications.

Best Performances

953 - Best Performances

The 953 consumes 10% less fuel per hour than the previous model. The optional high-performance bucket increases productivity by 20% compared to the normal GP bucket. Cat Payload technology provides accurate information on bucket load through dynamic weighing. More accurate loading reduces cycle times, saving time, labor costs, and fuel costs. Advansys bucket tips are designed to provide maximum productivity and minimal cost throughout the bucket's lifespan, for your toughest applications. Equipment and steering response is smoother and steering is more efficient than on the old model. Features such as load sensing hydraulic circuit and position sensing cylinders provide precise and immediate performance. All comparisons are made relative to the 953K Track Loader. *Not legal for commercial use.

Easy To Use

953 - Easy To Use

A comfortable cabin and an intuitive 254 mm (10-inch) touchscreen display. The standard high-definition rearview camera is clearly visible on the main screen. The slope indicator makes it easy to use by displaying longitudinal and transverse slopes directly on the screen. Enjoy driver comfort, including a suspension seat, adjustable controls, and armrests. The driver can choose controls via manipulators or with two levers, depending on their preferences or the application. Speed and direction can be controlled via a manipulator or a V-shaped lever and pedals. The equipment's response can be set to different settings (fine, normal, or rough), depending on the driver's preferences or the application. The emission reduction technology (on equipped models) is designed to operate seamlessly; it does not require any intervention from the driver.

Priority To Safety

953 - Priority To Safety

Excellent visibility on the bucket and all around the machine enhances safety and helps drivers work with confidence. Handles and steps allow the driver to easily get in and out of the cabin, from the front or rear of the tracks. A rear camera is available to improve visibility behind the machine. The seat belt indicator records a fault code via ProductLink when the driver does not fasten their seat belt, thus contributing to enhancing safety on the construction site. An ergonomic, quiet engine and controls that require less effort help reduce driver fatigue and improve concentration.

Custom Machines

953 - Custom Machines

Equip your loader at the factory to perform particularly difficult tasks such as work on soft surfaces, waste treatment, work in ship holds, and steel mills. For superior load-bearing and traction or work on sensitive terrain, choose a low ground pressure (LGP) loader with wider tracks. The configuration of the waste treatment loader is a versatile machine that allows for loading, sorting, excavation, and spreading of cover materials, specifically adapted to sanitary landfills or waste disposal sites as well as transfer stations. Protections, scraper bars, and special seals protect the machine and its components from impacts and debris in the air. The improved cleaning system reduces cleaning time, strengthens machine protection, and improves compaction. The machine's traction, long reach, and balance make track loaders perfectly suited for work in ship holds and port handling. Special protections and seals facilitate machine protection, while accessories such as coal buckets and mower blades help you get the job done. Your track loader can be factory-equipped with a heat-resistant cabin, high-temperature protection, and other functions to protect the machine and the operator in high-temperature steel mill work.

Product Link collects machine data, which is then accessible online through web and mobile applications. VisionLink® allows access to information anywhere and at any time in order to make informed decisions to increase productivity, reduce costs, simplify maintenance, and improve safety on the job site. The Cat app allows you to manage your resources at any time from your smartphone. Check the location and operating hours of your fleet, receive maintenance alerts, and request assistance from your local Cat dealer. Remote troubleshooting saves you time and money by allowing your Cat dealer to perform remote diagnostic tests. Remote Flash updates to the embedded software, in the absence of a technician, at a time that suits you, can potentially reduce update time by up to 50%.
