"Rugged," "versatile," "a dream to run" is what operators say about the Caterpillar 259D3 tracked skid steer loader. At 9000 pounds and powered by a Cat C3.3 B DIT (turbo) 74 horsepower engine, the 259D3 has the muscle to do a wide range of jobs for contractor and homeowner alike. It can be fitted with nonhydraulic attachments such as a standard 72" front-end-loader bucket or forks, or with hydraulic Quick Attach devices such as a 4-in-1 opening bucket, a posthole digger assembly, or a 60" brush mower. The 259D3 is controlled by joysticks (there are no clunky foot pedals to worry about), and the rubber tracks enable it to negotiate even the most challenging terrain. It’s a strong lifter too, with the capacity to raise a load of 2000 pounds to 10’.

The Boxer 500 Series has recently been redesigned to provide even greater productivity on the jobsite. The updated Boxer packs more punch including increased operating and tip capacities; offers a wider wheelbase for improved stability, better sight lines for operator visibility, longer reach and increased dump height for loading and unloading materials and more ground speed to reduce cycle times. The operator station has also been simplified to help reduce operator fatigue and promote ease of operation.
