Frequently Asked Questions for the Cat 265 Skid Steer Loader

What is the difference between Cat 289 and 265?

The 265’s new engine offers 43% more torque than its predecessor, the 289. Other performance improvements include greater lift height (raised to a towering 11 feet), and higher tilt and lift breakout force.

Improvements to the cabin mean a better experience overall for operators, too. The cooling system now sits lower to improve visibility, and a range of touchscreen displays gives you better control and understanding.

Hydraulic flow can also be adjusted to match the needs of specific attachments.

All of these innovations add up to a premium skid steer machine.

How much does a Cat 265 skid steer weigh?

The operating weight (complete with standard fluids, attachment, and an average-weight operator) comes to 10,492 pounds.

How wide is a Cat 265?

If you have the 450mm/17.7 inch tracks, your model will be 75.8 inches wide.

What is a Cat 265 Skid Steer price?

Is 1500 hours a lot for a used skid steer?

That’s not a lot for a skid steer that receives proper, scheduled maintenance. But that’s not always the case. Make sure to stick with trusted dealers like Quinn when buying used equipment.
