Benefits & Features

Application Specific Configuration

Guard Your Investment

Choose from a complete range of optional guarding to protect your machine from the harsh environment of a waste handling application. The machine guarding is purpose built to protect the machine's major components and systems to keep you on the job and maximize production rates.

Breathe Clean

Maximize your engine life and extend filter cleaning intervals with a turbine pre-cleaner. Keep cool with a reversing fan to purge the single plane, widely spaced core cooling package and brush-less sealed alternator. Breath clean with a powered RESPA system for the operator environment designed to eliminate 90% of the particulate in the air and filter the remaining 10%.

Maximize Tire Life

Fine tune your wheel torque to match the underfoot conditions and maximize performance while extending tire life. Cat Waste Handlers feature wheel torque adjustments through an exclusive Rimpull Control feature designed to keep your operating costs low.

Customize Your Experience

Work as one with your machine by customizing the controls.

Flexible Power Train

    A smooth, step-less electronically controlled hydrostatic transmission provides adjustable power to the ground with excellent groundspeed control and customizable feel.
    • Select your Power Train Mode:
      • Torque Converter (TC) for smooth rollout.
      • Hystat for aggressive engine braking.
      • Default mode which blends the best of Hystat and Torque Converter characteristics.
    • Reduce tire wear using Rimpull control which enables you to match available tractive power to underfoot conditions
    • Set Directional Shift Response, soft and smooth for material handling applications or sharp for aggressive operation.

Adjustable Electro Hydraulic Controls

    Easily customize the hydraulic performance through touch screen display to optimize your efficiency.
    • Optimize hydraulic modulation with Fine Mode control when working with forks.
    • Quicker Hydraulic response for fine grading at speed and quick functions through Lift and Tilt response settings.
    • Fully adjustable ride control activation speed along with 3rd function auxiliary flow for powering a roll out bucket.

Operator Profiles and Coded Start

    • The M Series Wheel Loaders will remember you and your personal settings with unique operator codes to make this machine truly yours and keep it secure on the job site.

Efficiently Powerful

Power on Demand

A choice of Power Modes allows you to choose between maximum fuel efficiency or boosted power along with hydraulic speed to get your work done even quicker.

Standard Power Mode

    • Saves up to 10% fuel compared to previous K Series models while running at an efficient 1,600 rpm.
    • Recommended for load and carry to maximize fuel efficiency.
    • Power-by-range logic increases power in speed Range 4 automatically to maximize travel speed and grade climbing performance.
    • Reduces cab sound levels down to a whisper quiet 64 dB(A) typical.

Performance Power Mode

    • Enabled at the push of a button (HP+).
    • Boosts engine power by up to 10% in all speed ranges.
    • Boosts engine speed by over 12%.
    • Increases hydraulic cycle times and productivity.

Six Cylinders of Efficient Power

    The Cat C7.1 engine provides more efficient, quieter operation while delivering superior performance and durability through a high torque, low speed design, with a Clean Emissions Module that is designed to manage itself so you can concentrate on your work.
    • No downtime for regeneration with a passive low temperature system that keeps you on the job.
    • Fit for Life Diesel Particulate Filter that is designed to exceed the engine overhaul life.
    • Extended fluid fill intervals with minimal use of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) with up to four fuel tank fills per DEF fill.
    • Configurable auto idle shut down based on time and ambient temperature to further reduce fuel burn and keep operating costs low.

Power to the Ground

Lock up and go with fully locking front differential axles that can be engaged on the move at full torque with the pull of a trigger on the seat mounted joystick. Maximize your traction with optional Limited Slip Differential on the rear axle to keep you climbing.

Independent service brakes on front and rear axles provide robust stopping performance while a push button electronic park brake allows you to safely secure the machine with ease.

Work Made Easy

Optimized Z-bar Linkage

    The Caterpillar patented optimized Z-bar linkage combines the digging efficiency of a traditional Z-bar with integrated tool carrier capabilities for great performance and versatility.
    • Perfect Parallelism functionality available in Fork Mode gives truly predictable performance while high tilt forces throughout the working range help you safely and confidently handle loads with precise control.
    • Forward Visibility has been maximized with the introduction of Gen III lift arms which bring a cast torque tube resulting in class leading front visibility when combined with the new cast couplers.*
    • Enhanced coupler options, new ISO or Fusion™ Cast Couplers offers additional visibility when compared with previous plate style couplers.
    *New lift arms available on standard lift 926M.

Quick Loading, Performance Series Buckets

Performance Series Buckets deliver up to 10% higher fill factors and better material retention for significant productivity and fuel efficiency improvements. The buckets feature a longer floor to take a bigger bite of the pile, an open throat to heap higher and curved side bars to help with material retention. This optimized shape is echoed across the General Purpose, Light Material, and High Dump bucket families.

Smooth and Predictable Multi-Function Performance

    M Series machines feature an electro-hydraulic control system that is governed by the Intelligent Power Management system for peak efficiency. The load-sensing, variable flow system senses work demand and adjusts flow and pressure to match the operators request.
    • Multi-Function without compromise through Caterpillar's exclusive dedicated hydraulic systems featuring three pumps:
      • 1st pump for Intelligent Hydrostatic drive
      • 2nd pump for implements
      • 3rd pump for steering system
    Drive, Lift and Steer simultaneously with smooth predictable control. The M Series simply does what you ask it to.
    • Programmable in-cab kick-outs are easy to set on the go for tilt, lower and lift. This feature is ideal for applications where the work cycle is repeatable allowing you to quickly return to programed set points such as ground and level.
    • Fine tune hydro-mechanical performance with fully adjustable 3rd function flow through the touch screen display (when equipped) for a perfect marriage between machine and attachments.
