The Cat 963 dozer is suitable for heavy-duty work in challenging environments, including building, demolition, soil preparation, and landscaping. Its low ground pressure provides superior traction on slopes and soft ground, making it adaptable for various tasks. The Cat C7 engine is powerful and fuel-efficient, thanks to its low-friction piston rings and oil jets, which reduce friction by 30% compared to earlier models. This makes the track loader ideal for completing tasks in challenging environments.
