Equipment Overview
The Cat 262 is a skid steer loader built for extended reach and quick truck loading, current as the 262D3 in Caterpillar’s skid steer loader range as the largest model in the line.

Power comes from a Cat C3.3B DIT turbocharged diesel engine meeting US EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards, driving a 2-speed hydrostatic transmission and four-wheel chain drive. Cat’s Intelligent Leveling system provides electronic self-leveling, return-to-dig, and a work tool positioner, and a standard 86 L/min hydraulic system (121 L/min high-flow optional) powers a wide range of attachments.
