Compact Cat® Wheel Loaders have steering wheels and pedals like those on a car. They offer a high seating position and a sloping hood for good all-around visibility. At Caterpillar, good design and safe design are synonymous. But there's another component to machine safety: the operator.
Trained operators read and understand the Operation and Maintenance Manual. They understand the function of all controls prior to operation. They start their day with a walk around inspection and report any safety issues immediately. They know that sloped surfaces present stability challenges, especially with a loaded bucket. And they visit SAFETY.CAT.COM™ for additional safety information.
Caterpillar Medium Wheel Loaders provide high levels of reliability and durability. Popular safety-related options include a rear-view camera to increase visibility to the rear of the machine and a window-cleaning package with handrails and platforms to improve access to the front of the windshield.
