Benefits & Features
Structures and Cast Box Boom
Structures on the 992G
The structures on the 992G combine the use of robotic welding and castings in critical high-stress areas.
Full Box-Section
Full box-section frame designed for maximum strength and minimum weight.
Box-shaped cylinder tower
Box-shaped cylinder tower is designed for improved resistance to twisting for maximum strength.
Upper and Lower Hitch-Pins
Upper and lower hitch-pins pivot on double-tapered roller bearings and are shaped to direct stress away from the end of the weld, resulting in a smoother transition of stress loads.
Spread-hitch design
Spread-hitch design helps square up the frame while providing increased clearance for access to the hitch and hydraulic lines.
Steering Cylinder Mounts
Steering cylinder mounts are loacated on the outboard side of the front frame to increase component clearances and structural strength, while improving serviceability.
Six linkage joints are oil-filled
Six linkage joints are oil-filled, low maintenance joints which do not require daily service.
One-piece, box-section, steel casting boom
One-piece, box-section, steel casting boom design replaces the traditional steel plate lift arms associated with wheel loaders.
Box-section design of the cast box boom
Box-section design of the cast box boom delivers three times the torsional loading strength of the previous design.
Power Train
Cat 3508B Diesel Engine
The Cat 3508B diesel engine is a four-stroke design and uses long, effective power strokes for more complete fuel combustion and optimum efficiency.
Separate engine cooling system
Separate engine cooling system isolates the radiator and fan from the engine compartment providing lower sound levels, more efficient cooling and a sloped hood for increased viewing.
Caterpillar planetary, power shift transmission
Caterpillar planetary, power shift transmission features perimeter-mounted, large diameter clutch packs that control inertia for smooth shifting and increased component life.
Impeller Clutch Torque converter (ICTC)
Impeller Clutch Torque converter (ICTC) combined with the Rimpull Control System (RCS) allows the operator maximum flexibility in modulating rimpull.
Heavy-Duty Axles
Heavy Duty Axles feature standard axle oil coolers, permanently lubed universal joints and stronger axle components in both the differentials and final drives for increased performance, serviceability and durability.
Oil-enclosed, multiple-disc brakes
Oil-enclosed, multiple-disc brakes are adjustment free with fewer parts for improved serviceability.
Buckets
The 992G has several buckets available
The 992G has several buckets available ranging in size from 1.5 m3 (15.0 yd3) to 12.3 m3 (16 yd3) that may be configured for a variety of impact and abrasive conditions.
Spade-edge Rock Buckets
Spade-edge rock buckets with bolt-on segments.
Heavy-Duty Mining System
This system features independently attached edge and adapter covers, one set of sidebar protectors, and half radius liners.
Heavy-duty Quarry Bucket
The Heavy-duty Quarry Bucket is recommended for use in face loading where moderate abrasion and high impact is encountered. This bucket features additional wear protection items, including: thicker base edge and adapters, additional liners and wear plates, bolt-on half arrow segments, and four sidebar protectors.
Hydraulics and Electronic Monitoring
Revolutionary electro-hydraulic system
Revolutionary electro-hydraulic control system uses separate hydraulic circuits for the implement/engine fan and steering/brake control.
Lift and tilt system
Lift and tilt system consists of larger bore lift and tilt cylinders and a combination of variable and fixed displacement pumps contributing to increased performance and serviceability.
Case Drain Filtration
Case Drain Filtration is included throughout the hydraulic system to protect against contamination.
Vital Information Display System (VIDS)
Vital Information Display System (VIDS) is a user friendly display system that provides operators and service technicians with information on the machines major components and system.
Optional Vital Information Management System (VIMS)
Optional Vital Information Management System (VIMS) is an upgrade to the VIDS system.
Load Sensing Steering
Load Sensing Steering with STIC control system integrates steering and transmission into a single controller. The steering system utilizes a variable displacement pump for maximum machine performance by direction power through the steering system only when needed.
Operator's Station and Controls
Spacious new cab design
Spacious new cab design os 75 percent larger, incorporating innovations for operator comfort, maneuverability and productivity.
STIC control system
STIC control system provides a fluid motion that reduces effort and allows the operator to work the machine for long periods of time with little or no fatigue.
Left brake pedal
Left brake pedal operates impeller clutch torque converter.
Contour Series Seat

Vital Information Display System (VIDS)
Vital Information Display System (VIDS) is the standard display system that provides information on the machine's major components and systems.
Optional Vital Information Management System (VIMS)
Optional Vital Information Management System (VIMS) is an upgrade to the VIDS system that monitors additional components and includes Payload Control System.
Automatic kickouts
Automatic kickouts for lift, lower, and bucket tilt are adjustable electronically from the cab.
Throttle Lock
Throttle Lock allows operator to preset the engine speed for a variety of applications, resulting in faster cycle times and increased productivity.
Rimpull Control System Switch
Rimpull Control System Switch turns RCS on and off.
Rimpull Control System (RCS)
Rimpull Control System (RCS) has four factory preset reduced rimpull settings (80, 65, 50 and 35 percent of rimpull).
Optional Ride Control
Optional Ride Control Switch turns Ride Control on and off.
Quick Shift Feature
Quick Shift feature allow quicker cycle times by automatically shifting from 1st forward to 2nd reverse.
Improved viewing area
Bonded glass in the front window eliminates distracting metal frames and the narrow loader boom and single tilt cylinder provide excellent operator visibility to the bucket.
Serviceability
Easier maintenance and Repair
Easier maintenance and repair through monitoring key functions and logging critical indicators.
Bucket match
Bucket Match
The 992G offers a variety of bucket sizes and available Ground Engaging Tool configurations to properly configure the machine based on material density, impact and abrasion.
