953 Track Loader
Save money and transport time with one rugged machine that does it all – land clearing, digging, grading, truck loading, slope work and more. Crawler loaders give you lower ground pressure and better traction so you can start the job sooner, and work longer, in all kinds of underfoot conditions. Cat® Track Loaders give you all this, plus outstanding performance and fuel efficiency.

Note (1)
All non-road Tier 4 Interim and Final, Stage IIIB, IV and V, Japan 2014(Tier 4 Final) and Korea Tier 4 Final diesel engines are required to use onlyUltra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuels containing 15 ppm EPA/10 ppm EU(mg/kg) sulfur or less. Biodiesel blends up to B20 (20% blend by volume)are acceptable when blended with 15 ppm (mg/kg) sulfur or less ULSD.B20 should meet ASTM D7467 specification (biodiesel blend stock shouldmeet Cat biodiesel spec, ASTM D6751 or EN 14214). Cat DEO-ULS™ or oils that meet the Cat ECF-3, API CJ-4, and ACEA E9 specificationare required. Consult your OMM for further machine specific fuelrecommendations.
Note (2)
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) used in Cat Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems must meet the requirements outlined in the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 22241.
Note (3)
Engine power at 1,800 rpm. The net power advertised is the power available at the flywheel when the engine is equipped with fan running up to maximum speed, alternator, air cleaner and aftertreatment. Net power is tested per ISO 9249:2007 and SAE J1349:2011.
