Wedges in the coupler pull the attachment tight to the machine in two directions (in and down), and constant hydraulic pressure is applied on the wedges to ensure a consistent, tight fit, providing enhanced tool control and increased productivity. The Fusion Coupler features an advanced wedging mechanism to create a tight, rattle-free fit, eliminating coupler-to-attachment movement and subsequent wear. The 914 can now be equipped with the Caterpillar Fusion Coupler System to provide enhanced durability and attachment compatibility. Correct use of the kickouts has been shown to save up to 20% of the cutting edge life of a bucket. All functions can easily be used together after setting the tool to the desired recall locations. Once the position of the attachment is moved to the desired location, a two-second press of the appropriate button programs that function, which is recalled by using detents in the joystick.


Controlled by four buttons in the cab, the new system can be adjusted to accommodate the kickouts required by two different work tools. Rotary Sensor Kickouts are now an option for the 910 and 914, and the new fork and bucket settings of this system, along with cylinder snubbing, are features now included in the kickout system for the 920. Frequency and duration of automatic reversing can be changed via the Cat Electronic Technician, allowing frequency to be adjusted from 5- to 240-minute intervals and duration from 5-20 seconds. In the automatic mode, the fan is factory-set to reverse direction for 10 seconds every 10 minutes. The reversing fan has a three-position rocker switch in the cab, allowing the system to be turned off, to operate in an automatic mode, or to be momentarily activated by the operator. In operating environments where airborne debris can be pulled into cooling cores and restrict airflow, possibly resulting in overheating, the new reversing-fan option can assist in keeping cooling cores clean for more efficient temperature control. (11 L) for the new loaders, allowing extended work cycles. Fuel-tank capacity also is increased by 2.9 gal. Caterpillar estimates up to 5% gains in fuel-efficiency with the new engine, and the C3.6 meets EU Stage V and U.S. The new engine has the same torque performance as the previous Cat 4.4, and also provides a modest increase in rated gross power, increasing from 101 to 111 horsepower (74 to 82 kW) for the 910 and 914, and from 117 to 122 horsepower (86 to 90 kW) for the 920.

The new Cat C3.6 engine is specifically designed for Cat products. Other new options include a reversing fan, LED working and under-hood lights, Fusion coupler for the 914, and USB ports in the cab. Additional rear guarding is now available for the 914 and 920, and new auxiliary hydraulic lines are available when the three- or four-valve option is selected. The new dual-setting feature is now included in the 920’s standard kickout system. Also new for the 910 and 914 is an available rotary-sensor-kickout system with both fork and bucket settings. All the new models are available in a high-lift configuration, and the 914 and 920 are available in an aggregate-handling configuration.Īmong the design changes is a new engine for all three models the Cat C3.6 replaces the C4.4, and with the new engine, all models get a horsepower boost. New options are available, and certain features available only as options on former models are now standard.
#CAT LOADER MODELS SERIES#
Building on the success of the Cat M Series Compact Wheel Loader range, Caterpillar has added three new models to the lineup, each with significant design enhancements: 910, 914, and 920, the latter replacing the 918M.
