Low Effort Machine Controls.Ergonomic, pilot hydraulic controlsgive operators precision control of theCat Multi Terrain Loader with minimaleffort. The right joystick controls loaderup/down and tilt control and the leftjoystick controls forward and reversetravel speed plus direction. Both joysticksuse an intuitive “S” control pattern.Optional deluxe joysticks now providemore auxiliary controls than before,using positive-action buttons to provide

precision fingertip control of manymachine functions, including:

• Proportional work tool hydraulics

• Work tool electrical

Basic and Deluxe joystick functionsinclude:

• One-touch continuous auxiliaryhydraulic flow

• Momentary auxiliary hydraulic flow

Cab Conveniences. Long hours in theCat Multi Terrain Loader are madeeasier by many standard conveniences,including a 12 volt DC power socket.Side, sliding windows offer protectionfrom the elements and allow fresh airventilation. Redesigned side windowsare removable for easy cleaning.Cabs with the door option installedfeature a new, automatic lock-outswitch that prevents accidental damageby disabling the loader functions whenthe door is open.

High-Efficiency Climate Controls.Operating in extreme temperatures canbe more comfortable with the optionalcab air conditioner and heater installed.Airflow is increased up to 83 percentand is now directed through six adjustablevents. Twice as many vents makesdefrosting the optional front door andside windows easier. The heater and airconditioner can be ordered separatelyor together.

Instrumentation. Cat Multi TerrainLoader instrument panels and gaugesare simple, easy to use and reliable.Bright indicator lights and audiblewarnings signal any critical systemsituation. Positive feel switches,with status lights, control most on/offfunctions. An engine air cleanerrestriction indicator is now in thecab for easier monitoring.

Visibility. Operating ease and productivityis enhanced on the Cat Multi TerrainLoader with excellent visibility. Thewide cab opening offers an exceptionalview of the work tool. The sloped angleof the engine compartment allowsexcellent visibility to the rear of themachine. A new, convex rearviewmirror option gives the operator apanoramic view of the machine’srear and sides. In addition, for bettervisibility in low-light conditions,the standard forward lights are nowadjustable 10 degrees in any direction.

Access/Egress. The Cat Multi TerrainLoader cab is designed to make machineoperation simple, productive andcomfortable. Getting in and out of thecab is easy through a wide opening withthree point grab irons and skid-resistantsteps. Tilt cylinders are neatly locatedunder the lift arms so not to interfere withoperator access and egress. Plenty ofuncluttered floor space makes steppinginto the cab even easier.

Cab Packages. Several cab packagesand options are available. The standardcab offers features such as an adjustablecontoured seat, cushioned contouredarmbar, dual throttle controls, pilotoperated joysticks, 12 volt DC powersocket and optional cup holder.

Cat Diesel Power. The heart of theCat Multi Terrain Loader power trainis the Caterpillar 3024C Turbo dieselengine. This rugged, reliable, four cylinderengine offers aggressive performanceand a fast torque curve for quick response.It is also a low emission engine, fullyU.S. EPA Tier 2 compliant.

Dual Engine Throttle Controls. The handand foot throttles allow the operator tomatch engine speed to the task. The handthrottle is ideal for jobs requiringconsistent engine speed — such as coldplaning, trenching or snow blowing.The foot throttle lets the operatorvary engine speed and minimize fuelconsumption for other tasks such asload and carry, truck loading, gradingand dozing.

Anti-Stall Feature. The anti-stallsystem on the Cat Multi Terrain Loaderallows maximum power to the trackswhile minimizing engine stalling.This system helps maximize productivityfor experienced operators and makesit easier for novice operators to becomeproductive.

Closed-Loop, High Output HydrostaticSystem. The dual, closed-loop, axialpiston hydrostatic pumps are drivendirectly off the engine. The pumpsprovide pressure and flow to two fixeddisplacement motors that power thefinal drive motors, driving the tracks.No chains are used.

High Performance Power TrainCaterpillar hystat power train delivers aggressive performance and easy operation.

Power and Reliability. Maximum powerand reliability are built into the CatMulti Terrain Loader hydraulic system.In addition to providing power to drivethe tracks, this system also provides theloader lift and tilt functions, powers theauxiliary circuit to drive work toolsand drives the engine cooling fan.

Hydraulic Pumps. The hydraulic pumpsare driven off the engine for maximumhydraulic performance and reliability —no belts are used. Pumps are fixed-displacement and provide 60 L/min(15.6 gal/min) at high idle. Maximumsystem pressure for the loader andauxiliary circuit for the 247B and 257Bis 23 000 kPa and 3335 psi. Two fixeddisplacement gear pumps provide flowand pressure for the 257B high flowloader and auxiliary circuit at 100 L/min(26 gal/min) at high idle. Maximumsystem pressure for the loader andauxiliary circuit is 23 000 kPa (3335 psi).Control of the loader lift and tiltfunctions is by hydraulically-operatedjoystick controls for low effort andprecise operation.

Auxiliary Hydraulics. Standard auxiliaryhydraulics to power work tools isavailable through quick connect hydrauliccouplings that are rigidly mounted tothe loader arm. The Caterpillar line ofXT™ ES hoses and O-ring face sealshelp assure a leak-free system.

Reliability and Cleanliness. Hydraulicsystem reliability and cleanliness areimproved by using single componentsin place of multiple components, suchas the monoblock hydraulic valve andmonoblock pumps. Fewer leak pointsimprove reliability and result in acleaner machine. In addition, hydraulicoil flows through a 5-micron spin-onfilter. A filter restriction indicatoris located at the operator station.A 74-micron screen in the hydraulictank prevents larger debris fromentering the system and causingdamage to the hydraulic components.

Hydraulic Oil Cooler. A high-efficiencyhydraulic oil cooler lets the Cat MultiTerrain Loader work longer and harderin higher ambient temperatures, evenwhen using continuous high flow worktools. The high capacity hydraulic oilreservoir also helps keep operatingtemperatures lower.

The hydraulic system has built-in reliability and provides exceptional lift, breakout andauxiliary power to work tools.
