Move More. All Day. Every Day.
Z-bar Linkage
The proven Z-bar linkage with Performance Series Buckets offer excellent penetration into the pile, high breakout forces, good
roll back angles, and faster dig times. The results are improved tire life, superior fuel efciency, and exceptional production
capabilities; all helping to enable asustainable solution for your business.
Load Sensing Hydraulics
Load sensing hydraulics produce ow and pressure for the implement system upon demand and only in amounts necessary to
perform the needed work functions, enhancing machine productivity and fuel efciency. Implement controllability is improved
through simultaneous implement operation and repeatable ne modulation, enabling greater operator comfort through ease
ofoperation.
Ride Control
Ride control provides the operator with a smoother ride over rough terrain, enabling a more comfortable ride at higher speeds.
The benet is reduced cycle times, higher productivity and better fuel efciency while performing load and carry applications.
The system works by using an accumulator to dampen the linkage motion, acting as a shock absorber.
Torque Converter
The 966K torque converter is optimized to improve fuel efciency and deliver more power to the ground.
Transmission
The K series transmissions incorporate a new shifting strategy that delivers smoother shifts, faster acceleration, and better
performance climbing a grade. When placing the transmission into forward gear, the machine will automatically start in
secondgear. With the further enhancement of a torque based 2 to 1 downshift, the downshift will only occur based on machine
load. Owners and operators will fully benet from utilizing the automatic 1-4 transmission mode, which results in lower fuel
consumption and optimal machine performance.
