ACERT™ TECHNOLOGY. Since March

2003, ACERT Technology has been

proving itself in on-highway trucks.

More recently it has proven itself again

in field tests of off-highway equipment.

This technology allows Cat engines to

meet durability and reliability

expectations without sacrificing fuel

economy or performance.

CATERPILLAR DESIGNED

COMPONENTS. Components used to

build Cat Wheel Loaders are designed

and manufactured to Caterpillar quality

standards to ensure maximum

performance even in extreme operating

conditions.

Engine electronic control modules and

sensors are completely sealed against

moisture and dust. Deutsche connectors

and electrical wire braiding ensure that

electrical connections resist corrosion

and premature wear.

Hoses are engineered and manufactured

for high resistance to abrasion, excellent

flexibility and easy installation and

replacement.

Caterpillar®couplings use o-ring face

seals to provide positive sealing for

durable leak-free connections.

Heavy duty components reduce the risk

of leaks, corrosion and premature wear

increasing uptime and helping to protect

the environment.

MONITORING PROGRAMS. Monitoring

product health is key to maintaining

reliability of any equipment. Many

programs are available on the 950H -

both as standard and optional features -

to help you track machine condition.

Caterpillar Monitoring System. The

950H is equipped with the Cat

Monitoring System (CMS) that keeps

watch over the health of your loader.

CMS monitors critical engine system

functions and will derate the engine to

protect itself from damage if needed.

Depending on which of the following

six critical conditions arise, the CMS

monitor or front panel will display

warning lights and sound audible

alarms.

• High coolant temperature

• High air inlet temperature

• Low engine oil pressure

• High fuel pressure

• Low fuel pressure

• Engine over-speed

Product Link. Product Link is a state-of-

the-art satellite technology based

product that provides two-way

information flow between machine on-

board systems and the Caterpillar

network operations center. Multiple

types of information can be collected

and tracked - from machine location

and service meter hours, to health and

productivity information.

The Cat®950H - Tested And Proven - Ready To Work

RELIABILITY

EquipmentManager. With a

subscription to EquipmentManager

through the Cat Dealer Storefront the

information collected through Product

Link can be transmitted to a computer.

With fast, easy-to-access machine

information, you can optimize asset

utilization, reduce security risks,

improve maintenance management and

implement before-failure repair

strategies. The result is more uptime,

lower operating costs and a higher

overall return on equipment investment.

S•O•SSM Services. Keep minor repairs

from becoming major ones and avoid

complete failures. By regularly taking

samples from the ports provided, your

Cat dealer tracks wear of components

and parts, oil performance, and oil

condition and uses that data to predict

wear-related problems before they

happen. Often a simple adjustment or

replacement of a part, based on S•O•S

reports, can keep a small problem from

turning into a major repair - allowing

your machine to be running when you

need it, not waiting in the shop for

service.

EPA TIER III, EU STAGE III COMPLIANT

C7 ENGINE. ACERT Technology

combines proven systems with

innovative new technologies to

precisely deliver fuel to the combustion

chamber. It maintains engine

performance, efficiency and durability

while dramatically reducing emissions.

The Cat C7 with ACERT Technology is

a 7.2 L displacement, 6-cylinder,

electronically governed engine.

Electronic fuel injection is provided

through the well-proven Caterpillar

hydraulically actuated, electronically

controlled unit injection (HEUI) system.

A wastegate turbocharger, equipped

with a titanium wheel for improved

durability, combined with air-to-air

aftercooling (ATAAC) provides

consistent high horsepower with

increased altitude capability.

Electronic Controller. The engine is

governed by the ADEM™ A4 electronic

control module. The controller

continually adjusts engine output based

on load demand using a series of

sensors located on the machine and

engine.

Hydraulically Actuated Electronic Unit

Injectors (HEUI). The HEUI™ system has

been at work in Cat engines across the

product line with a proven track record

of consistent, durable, reliable

performance.

Engine Block and Pistons. The gray,

cast iron engine block is made of the

same material as the cylinder heads.

Wall diameters are thicker than in

previous designs while adjustments

have been made to reduce sound levels

and increase rigidity. One-piece all-steel

pistons are housed within a wet,

replaceable cast iron cylinder liner

constructed of high-strength, heat-

treated castings. Steel-forged

connecting rods are larger in diameter

and are connected to the crankshaft with

two bolts.

Cylinder Head. The cylinder head is a

one-piece design that incorporates

cross-flow design to facilitate air

movement. This allows the engine to

breathe cooler, cleaner air with less

effort.

RADIATOR. Brazed aluminum

construction provides a stronger joint

for maximum durability and resistance

to leaks. The 6-fins-per-inch, square-

wave core design decreases the chance

of blockage and plugging.

POWERSHIFT TRANSMISSION. The

950H continues to use heavy-duty

powershift transmission technology

proven on previous models and

currently used up through the largest

wheel loader built by Caterpillar - the

994F.

The planetary powershift transmission

features heavy-duty components to

handle the toughest applications. Built-

in electronic controls enhance shift

quality, productivity and durability.

Control Throttle Shifting. Control

Throttle Shifting regulates engine speed

during high-energy directional changes

for smoother shifting and longer

Electronic Clutch Pressure Control.

Electronic Clutch Pressure Control

(ECPC) system modulates clutches

individually to improve shift quality,

component life and operator comfort.

Adjustment is simplified with all

solenoid valves externally mounted on

top of the transmission housing.

AXLES. The 950H axles are designed by

Caterpillar for durability in all operating

conditions. The front axle is rigidly

mounted to the frame to support the

weight of the wheel loader and

withstand internal torque loads as well

as external forces encountered

throughout operation.

The rear axle is designed to allow ± 13°

oscillation. All four wheels remain on

the ground over uneven terrain

providing excellent stability and

traction.

6

Built Strong And Tough

DURABILITY

Integrated Braking System. The Cat

exclusive Integrated Braking System

reduces axle oil temperatures and

improves transmission neutralizer

smoothness. IBS has a direct impact on

durability of the axles and brakes

especially in applications involving

long distances and/or heavy braking.

STRUCTURES. The articulated frame

design of the 950H features a durable

box-section engine frame and rigid

four-plate loader tower that is

robotically welded. Robotic welding

creates frame joints with deep plate

penetration welds and excellent fusion

for maximum strength and durability.

Engine End Frame (EEF). A full box-

section engine end frame with hitch

plates at the front end provides a strong,

rigid structure that resists twisting and

impact loads. The result is an extremely

solid mounting platform for the engine,

transmission, axle, ROPS and other

accessories.

Spread Hitch. The distance between the

upper and lower hitch plates is an

important contributor to machine

performance and component life. The

Caterpillar spread hitch design provides

excellent load distribution and bearing

life. Both the upper and lower hitch pins

pivot on double tapered roller bearings -

improving durability by distributing

both vertical and horizontal loads over a

larger surface area. The wide opening

also provides excellent service access.

Non-Engine End Frame (NEEF). The

non-engine end frame provides a solid

mounting base for the front axle, lift

arms, lift cylinders and tilt cylinders.

The fabricated, four-plate loader tower

absorbs the forces associated with

loading, twisting and penetration.

Counterweight. The two-piece

counterweight is integrated into the

950H design and styling. This 1853 lb

(840 kg) counterweight incorporates the

rear lights into the top of the structure.

A heavy-duty counterweight, 3084 lb

(1399 kg), is optional for logging or

high-lift applications.

Linkage. The 950H linkage is a single-

tilt Z-bar design. Z-bar linkage

generates excellent breakout force and

good rack back angle for better bucket

loading and load retention.

Lift arms are solid steel, providing

superior strength with an excellent front

end viewing area. The proven design

offers excellent dump clearance and

reach for exceptional matching to both

on- and off-highway trucks.

Rotary sensors, for the tilt lever and lift

circuit allow the operator to

electronically set detent positions from

the cab. A guard covers the sensor to

protect it from damage.

• Hydraulics are easy to control with

low effort

• Maximum fuel efficiency and

flexibility in idle speeds

• Consistent horsepower regardless of

conditions

• Standard and optional features that

maximize productivity

LOAD SENSING HYDRAULICS. The

950H features a load sensing hydraulic

system that automatically adjusts to

operating conditions to provide only the

hydraulic flow required by the

implement for improved fuel efficiency.

With the new M3PC Priority

Proportional Pressure Compensation

Valve, implement control is improved

over the previous system - raise/lower

and rack back/dump can be operated

simultaneously and fine modulation is

repeatable for improved productivity.

Operators will notice enhanced ease of

operation, more rimpull into the pile

and a 20% increase in lift force.

Electrohydraulic Implement Controls.

Electrohydraulic implement controls on

the 950H provide the operator with in-

cab programmable kickouts to prevent

material spillage - improving

productivity. The implement control

console features an optional

Forward/Neutral/Reverse switch

allowing fast, easy directional changes

to reduce cycle times.

CONSTANT NET HORSEPOWER. On

many competitive machines, gross

horsepower is constant, meaning that

net engine power available for actual

work will vary based on demands made

from parasitic sources, such as air

conditioning or cooling fans.

The Cat C7 engine is electronically

configured to provide constant net

horsepower at full parasitic load

enhancing productivity and improving

fuel efficiency.

On-Demand Fan. With electronic control

of the variable speed on-demand fan,

temperature levels of the engine

coolant, transmission oil, hydraulic oil

and air inlet manifold are constantly

monitored. This data is used to control

and maintain fan speed at the level

necessary to maintain normal system

temperatures. Controlled fan speed

improves fuel efficiency, lowers noise

levels and reduces radiator plugging.

Separated Cooling System. Many

competitive loaders use cooling systems

that pull air in from the sides, through

the engine compartment and exhaust it

out the rear of the machine. The 950H

cooling system is isolated from the

engine compartment by a non-metallic

shield. The hydraulically driven,

variable speed fan draws in clean air

from the rear of the machine and

exhausts it out the sides and top of the

hood. The end results are optimal

cooling efficiency, increased fuel

efficiency, less radiator plugging and

reduced operator sound levels.

PLANETARY POWERSHIFT

TRANSMISSION. The electronic

planetary powershift transmission with

automatic shift capability is designed

and built by Caterpillar. The very

responsive, full-power speed and

directional changes provide excellent

cycle times and productivity.

VARIABLE SHIFT CONTROL. Match

transmission shifting patterns to

machine application requirements.

Variable Shift Control (VSC) improves

shift quality and fuel efficiency in

certain applications by allowing the

transmission to upshift at lower engine

RPMs.

Work Smart And Move More

PRODUCTIVITY

RIDE CONTROL. The optional Ride

Control System improves ride,

performance and load retention when

traveling over rough terrain. Operators

gain confidence moving at higher

speeds in load and carry operations

decreasing cycle times and increasing

productivity.

PAYLOAD CONTROL SYSTEM. Scales,

designed specifically for Cat machines

allow on-the-go weighing of material in

the bucket. Operators load trucks more

accurately and efficiently. Loading

trucks right the first time equates to

quicker cycles for the operator and

more productivity and controllability

for your operation.

Payload Control is offered as a factory-

installed option. Driver tickets and a

variety of reports can be printed with

the addition of the optional printer.

AUTOLUBE. The optional Caterpillar

Autolube System provides precise,

automatic lubrication of pins and

bushings - during loader operation.

Automatic lubrication reduces time

spent on daily maintenance and

downtime for unplanned repairs due to

inadequate greasing - improving

productivity.

AGGREGATE AUTODIG. Well-received

by both experienced and novice

operators, the optional Aggregate

Autodig automates the loading process.

Aggregate Autodig provides smoother

loading cycles, consistently full

payloads and eliminates tire spin - all

without touching the controls.

movement to the front or rear of the

machine. The main cab door opens a

full 180° and latches in place to allow

safe navigation to the rear of the

machine.

The right side door opens 10°, or

completely for secondary exit simply by

pulling a pin. A full-length ladder on

the right side facilitates safe exit if

needed.

VIBRATION. Caterpillar understands that

wheel loaders work in some of the

harshest environments. By controlling

normal machine vibrations, operator

efficiency and productivity are

improved. From the ground up, the Cat

950H is designed with many features,

both standard and optional, that reduce

allowing the cab to stay steady.

• The cab is attached to the frame with

iso-mounts designed to reduce shock

loads from the ground.

• The articulation joint is equipped

with two neutralizer valves that

prevent frame-to-frame contact.

• Cylinder dampening slows the

bucket as it reaches the limits of

travel, preventing machine jarring.

• Ride Control is an option designed

to reduce jolting and bouncing

during load and carry operations. An

accumulator acts as a shock absorber

to reduce machine pitching and

provide a smoother ride over rough

terrain.

• Electronically controlled, automatic

kickouts prevent the jerking and

bouncing associated with abrupt

cylinder stops.

• Air suspension seat-mounted

implement controls reduce vertical

vibrations that come up through the

floor.

AGGREGATE AUTODIG. The optional

Aggregate Autodig System provides

smoother loading cycles and

consistently full payloads without

touching the controls - reducing

operator fatigue.

12

Work Comfortably And Efficiently

OPERATOR COMFORT

CONTROLS. The main control panel on

the 950H is located high on the right

ROPS post - keeping everything within

reach of the operator while maintaining

visibility to the ground. Keeping all

switches and controls conveniently

placed allows better efficiency and

improved productivity all while

minimizing operator fatigue.

STEERING OPTIONS. The 950H offers a

choice of steering systems to provide

flexibility for your application.

Conventional Steering. The

conventional steering configuration

offers a low-effort hand metering unit

hydraulic steering system. Load sensing

steering directs power through the

steering system only when needed.

When not steering, more engine power

is available to generate rimpull,

breakout force, lift force, and results in

reduced fuel consumption. The steering

column tilts for maximum operator

comfort.

Command Control Steering. Command

Control Steering is a load-sensing

system that links the steering wheel and

frame angle positions to provide the

proper amount of steering control. The

speed the machine turns is proportional

to the steering wheel position. Less than

6 lb (26 N) steering effort is required by

the operator, regardless of conditions.

Full machine articulation is

accomplished with a ±70° turn of the

wheel - versus two to three 360° turns

of a conventional steering wheel.

The Command Control Steering wheel

contains the forward/neutral/reverse

switch and the upshift/downshift button

- allowing the left hand to remain on

the steering wheel at all times.

Implement controls are integrated into

the right armrest so they move with the

operator.

FUEL EFFICIENCY. Many manufacturers

tout fuel consumption as one of the

determining factors for machine

acquisition, but fuel consumption is

only part of the story. Productivity must

also play a part in the decision. Even

more importantly, how fuel

consumption and productivity interact -

fuel efficiency - should be considered.

950H Fuel Efficiency. Customer testing

of the 950H is showing an improvement

in fuel efficiency over the 950G Series

II. This fuel savings is achieved through

the integration of the Caterpillar

proportional-flow load sensing

hydraulic system, Engine Idle

Management System software, Variable

Shift Control and ACERT™ Technology.

ACERT™ Technology Fuel Economy.

Based on Caterpillar testing, the fuel

economy of Cat engines with ACERT

Technology is 3 to 5 percent better than

current competing technologies. This

fuel economy is directly related to the

complete combustion of fuel due to the

integration between the electronic

control that monitors conditions, the air

management system that controls air

volume and the fuel injection system

that delivers just the right amount of

fuel as needed.

Free Wheel Stator Torque Converter

(FWSTC). The free wheel stator torque

converter improves power train

efficiency in load and carry operations

which contributes to the improved fuel

efficiency of the 950H.

ENGINE IDLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM.

The Engine Idle Management System

(EIMS) maximizes fuel efficiency and

provides flexibility in managing idle

speeds for specific application

requirements. Four idle control speeds

are available.

Hibernate Mode. Idle speed drops after

a preset time to provide lower fuel

consumption, reduced sound levels and

lower emissions.

Work Mode. Adjust working idle speeds

according to customer preference and

operating conditions.

Warm-Up Mode. Keep the engine at a

consistent temperature in cold

conditions.

Low Voltage Mode. Prevent battery

drain due to high electrical loads from

attachments and accessories.

MAINTENANCE. Proper maintenance of

your wheel loader can help control

expenses and lower your owning and

operating costs. The 950H provides

unmatched serviceability by offering:

• Hydraulic service center

• Electric service center

• Well-protected, easily visible sight

gauges

• Ground level maintenance points

• Easy access to engine compartment

fluid sampling is used to track what is

going on inside the equipment. Wear-

related problems are predictable and

easily and quickly repairable.

Maintenance can be done according to

your schedule, resulting in increased

uptime and flexibility in maintenance

and repair before failure.

PARTS AVAILABILITY. Caterpillar

provides an unsurpassed level of

personalized service for your wheel

loader. With parts distribution centers

worldwide, most parts can be delivered

in 24 hours. Easy access to parts

reduces downtime.

equipment is a very important factor in

maintaining resale value. Cat not only

supplies quality equipment but also

provides product and dealer support to

maintain the reliability and durability of

your machine.

Customer Support Agreements. A

Customer Support Agreement (CSA) is

any arrangement between you and your

Cat dealer that helps you lower your

total cost per unit of production. CSAs

are flexible, allowing them to be

tailored to your business. They can

range from simple Preventive

Maintenance Kits to sophisticated Total

Cost Performance Guarantees. Having a

CSA with your Cat dealer allows you

more time to do what you do best - run

your business.

• Grouped service points and sight

gauges for easy daily maintenance

• Convenient access to engine

compartment for excellent

serviceability

• Swing-out grill and cooling cores for

easy cleaning

• Electronic systems to monitor

product health

HYDRAULIC SERVICE CENTER.

Transmission oil and hydraulic filters

are located in the Hydraulic Service

Center, behind the hinged, right-side

access ladder. The hydraulic oil tank

can be drained from this location using

the access port.

• Hydraulic filter change interval at

500 hours

• Transmission filter change interval

at 1000 hours

ELECTRIC SERVICE CENTER. Batteries,

relay panel and an optional tool box are

conveniently located below the left-side

access platform. The engine shutdown

switch is housed with the relay panel. A

compartment integrated into the access

platform contains the hood tilt actuation

switch, master switch and jump-start

receptacle.

GROUND LEVEL GREASE POINTS.

Grease fittings are grouped on the right

side of the machine in two convenient

locations - in a service compartment

just below the right-side service

platform, and a bank located just off the

non-engine end frame. These locations

facilitate easy lubrication of vital

components located throughout the

machine.

AUTOLUBE. Reduce time spent on daily

maintenance and downtime for

unplanned repairs due to inadequate

greasing with the optional Caterpillar

Automatic Lubrication System. Precise

lubrication of pins and bushings at

specific intervals improves component

wear and reduces ground contamination

from excessive greasing.

REMOTE PRESSURE TAPS. Pressure

taps for the steering and hydraulic

systems, transmission (optional) and

brakes are grouped behind an access

panel just below the right-side service

platform.

S•O•S SERVICES. Sampling valves on

the 950H allow quick access to engine,

transmission and hydraulic oils for

S•O•S analysis. Oil change intervals

and other services can be optimized

according to your work schedule,

reducing downtime and managing

expenses.

Easy To Maintain - Easy To Service

SERVICEABILITY

SIGHT GAUGES. Well-protected, yet

easily visible sight gauges for the

transmission, hydraulic oil and radiator

coolant allow easy daily checks while

reducing the risk of contaminants

entering the systems.

BRAKE WEAR INDICATORS. Axles are

equipped with standard brake wear

indicators, allowing a technician to

easily determine when it is necessary to

service the brakes.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT ACCESS. The

non-metallic hood on the 950H has

been redesigned and restyled from

previous models. Side and top panels

are stronger due to more robust

reinforcement ribs - the change in

contour also adds to rigidity of the

hood.

A single mechanical lift cylinder with

manual back-up opens the hood. The

tilting hood provides excellent access to

the engine compartment, and if

necessary, the entire hood can be

removed with the built-in lift points.

With the hood closed, quick checks of

engine oil levels and the coolant sight

gauge can be completed through the

side service doors.

Panels located behind the tires lift up

and can be removed for additional

access. Roading fenders hinge from the

rear and swing out allowing easier

access to the engine compartment.

ELECTRIC PRIMING PUMP. An electric

fuel priming pump located on the

primary fuel filter base eliminates the

need to pre-fill or manually prime filters

after a change, eliminating engine

contamination.

ECOLOGY DRAINS. Engine,

transmission and hydraulic oils can be

easily drained with standard-equipment

ecology drains. An axle oil ecology

drain is optional.

COOLING SYSTEM. Cooling system

access for clean-out and maintenance is

outstanding. The perforated and

corrugated grill minimizes debris build-

up and swings out for easy cleaning and

access to the cooling cores.

The full-width air conditioning

condenser and oil cooler cores swing

out 45° to allow easy cleaning of the

rear radiator face. Access panels on

either side of the radiator support

structure provide access to the front

face of the radiator and ATAAC cores

for easy cleaning.

CAB. The entire operator station can be

removed in about 45 minutes and is

easy to re-attach. Quick disconnects are

used so no wires need to be cut and no

refrigerant is lost.

Cab cleaning is made easy with

channels on the cab floor and no

threshold at the door - the floor can be

swept or mopped out easily.

WINDSHIELD CLEANING PACKAGE. An

optional windshield cleaning package

consists of two steps for the loader front

frame, two additional handrails and a

folding mirror. This package allows

access to the entire front windshield for

easy cleaning.

COMPLETE CUSTOMER SUPPORT. Cat

field service technicians have the

experience and tools necessary to

service your loader on site. Technical

experts at the dealership and Caterpillar

can provide additional assistance to

field service technicians as needed.
