Is it time to upgrade your construction or landscaping equipment fleet by adding a new compact track loader (CTL)? If you’re in Western North Carolina, turn to the equipment pros at Carolina Cat for the revolutionary Cat® 275 and 275 XE track loaders. These next-generation earthmoving machines join the Cat 255 and Cat 265 lineup to provide a comprehensive selection of advanced CTL solutions.
Features and Benefits Overview
These state-of-the-art compact track loaders include numerous advanced features and benefits that will improve jobsite results and add more value to your business.
Enhanced Power
The Cat 275 and Cat 275 XE rely on a rugged C3.6TA engine that seamlessly combines maximum power with exceptional fuel efficiency. This electronically controlled engine offers standard two-speed travel to adapt to your jobsite movement needs and an optional Speed Sensitive Ride Control system that helps to optimize material retention when navigating uneven terrain.
Flexible Hydraulics Solutions
Choose from three levels of hydraulic performance to meet your unique performance requirements, especially when adding attachments:
- Standard Flow: Choose this basic hydraulic option when working with attachments requiring the lowest levels of auxiliary flow and horsepower.
- High Flow: This hydraulic performance solution is ideal for applications that need more hydraulic flow and enhanced attachment performance.
- High-Flow XPS: Consider this more robust hydraulic system that delivers higher flow and pressure for your most demanding applications and attachments.
Improved Performance and Handling
The Cat 275 and 275 XE include advanced technology that simplifies operations and increases efficiency. An intuitive touch screen monitor provides access to an integrated radio, Bluetooth® connectivity and a multicamera display, including a side view option, for enhanced visibility and safety.
The 275 XE and 275 track loaders from Caterpillar also have an advanced joystick that provides unparalleled machine control. Operators can perform various functions without removing their hands from the control.
Upgraded Operator Stations
Redesigned operator stations create a more productive environment for CTL users. A more spacious, open area and additional seat adjustability can increase operator comfort. You can also choose a sealed and pressurized cab that reduces noise and prevents dust and debris penetration. This cab has strategically placed vents that permit exceptional air circulation.
Another optional feature is a high-back air seat with heating, ventilation and adjustable joystick controls.
