FAQs

Learn more about whether this model is right for your company. Here are some answers to the most frequently asked questions about purchasing and maintaining a new Cat 950 wheel loader in California.

What Is the Bucket Capacity of the Cat 950?

The Cat 950 is compatible with buckets ranging from 3.3 to 5.75 cubic yards (2.5 to 4.4 cubic meters.)

Typically, users lift heavy, loose materials such as gravel, sand, and soil in construction, engineering, and demolition projects. However, this model is also suitable for use in agriculture, industrial applications, and more.

What Size Tires Are on a 950 Loader?

The Cat 950 features BOCE and Bridgestone 23.5R25 VJT L3 radial tires, which have a gross weight of 729 pounds. 

These tires are also designed with specialized center tread blocks and a non-directional pattern, which helps them better withstand the demands of rugged environments. 

How Much Does a 950 Cat Loader Weigh?

The operating weight of the Cat 950 is 42,461 pounds. It’s important to note that this weight includes:

  • Parallel lift Z-bar package and roading fenders configuration
  • Bridgestone 23.5R25 VJT L3 radial tires
  • Full fluid levels
  • Standard counterweight
  • Operator in cab

Removing or adding certain factors of the above can adjust the machine’s weight, which can affect your jobsite.

How Often Should You Service a Cat 950 Wheel Loader?

In addition to a daily visual inspection, you should service your wheel loader at regular intervals to prevent small issues from becoming serious and causing a breakdown. 

For example, greasing your machine once weekly can help ensure high performance and prevent excessive wear and tear. Equipment working in rugged conditions will often require more frequent maintenance, as the jobsite will wear its components down faster.

At Quinn Company, our team of more than 550 highly trained technicians and specialists are here to help you keep your machine in excellent working order for as long as possible. Our apprenticeship training program ensures all our technicians are extremely familiar with our equipment, so we can help you find the quickest and most cost-effective solutions for any issues you may have.
