The 924Gz is designed and built for maximum loader performance. The powerful Caterpillar power train, new load-sensing hydraulic system and Z-bar linkage all combine to give more than ever before from a machine this size.
The 924Gz delivers fast response and aggressive performance in tough applications.
The six-cylinder, turbocharged 3056T has a strong reputation for reliability, durability and performance.
Rugged, field-proven Caterpillar 4F/3R transmission uses heavy-duty components for durable and reliable operation.
Enclosed design allows extended operation even in harsh environments.
Caterpillar offers two general purpose buckets for use on the 924Gz. Careful match of bucket design and machine operating characteristics provide the best digging, loading and carrying performance.
Caterpillar general purpose buckets are suitable for most applications.
Ground engaging tools include hardened steel cutting edges, choice of short or long teeth and a variety of tooth adapters.
For expanded machine versatility, other special purpose buckets are also available. Contact your Caterpillar Dealer for details.
Modular Hydraulic System designed by Caterpillar provides low-effort operation and greater control.
Modular hydraulic control valves add a new dimension of versatility to simplify and lower the cost of reconfiguring the machine for additional functions.
Ride control option provides a comfortable ride at all speeds.
Other hydraulic system features include compatibility with Cat biodegradable hydraulic oil and pressure taps allow quick diagnosis of the whole hydraulic system.
The G-Series cab is a spacious and comfortable work environment that includes larger windows, more interior room, better ergonomics, generous storage areas and a dramatic reduction in interior sound levels.
Access/egress is through a two-door design. Both doors open fully and lock flush against the cab.
Larger windows have more glass area for exceptional visibility. All glass is flat so replacement panels are readily available and less costly than curved glass.
Interior sound power (dB) has been cut in half compared to former models by a combination of improved sound insulation and low-noise components.
Comfortable operation is made possible by pilot hydraulic implement controls and padded, adjustable wrist rest.
Generous storage space includes a lockable compartment, coat hook and molded compartments designed to hold a lunchbox/cooler, thermos vacuum bottle, and a cup or can.
Seat options include a basic seat with full adjustable fore/aft position, seatback angle, bottom cushion height, armrest angle and suspension stiffness.
The cab can be customized with 12 VDC converter for powering 12V electronics, radio prep packages for installation of a radio later, sun visor for windshield, roll-down sun screen for rear window, external mirror package, and auxiliary lighting.
Gull-wing doors with pneumatically-assisted lift cylinders effortlessly lift up for exceptional access to the engine and power train components.
All service points are accessible from the ground level and are grouped in two locations.
A swing-out cooling fan allows quick, easy cleaning and service of the radiator. The fan is hydraulically driven and separated from the engine compartment.
Scheduled Oil Sampling (SOS) valves are factory installed for improved access to engine, transmission and hydraulic oils. SOS valves make oil sampling quicker, cleaner and provides the best oil sample for analysis.
Other service features include longer service intervals and spin-on filters for engine oil, transmission oil and hydraulic oil are easy to reach and change with minimal risk of oil spill.
The 924Gz provides more performance than ever before in a machine this size.
The Cat 3056T is a low emission engine designed to meet current worldwide emission regulations.
Not only is the cab quiet, but spectators outside hear little noise too.
Extra sound suppression with an optional package makes the 924Gz even quieter so it ideal for sound-sensitive applications like urban and night work, and when used for snow removal.
The 924Gz's air conditioning unit uses only R-134a refrigerant which does not contain harmful chlorofluorocarbons (CFC's).
Caterpillar biodegradable hydraulic oil can be used in the 924Gz, providing a more environmentally-sound alternative to mineral-based oils.
Lubricant fillers and drains are designed to minimize spills.
Five hundred-hour engine service intervals and Cat Extended Life Coolant/Antifreeze (up to 6,000-hour service) mean there is less disposal of used fluids.
Many of the major components used in the 924Gz are designed for rebuildability. That means you can have high-quality, certified replacement parts at a fraction of the cost of new.
