MY NEW CAT 963C

Post #1 by newjcb123uk » Sat Jan 19, 2008 10:30 pm

Heres some pics of my new Cat 963C which replaced a previous model for use on my Landfill Site last year- Our first crawler loader was a 941 which really earned her money. I then went for a couple of 953s and then eventually went for the larger 963 twice. I favour the 953 as its much more agile and "speedy". I still keep one as a back up machine. ;)

We've had a few probs with this latest 963 and cat to take off the drive motors (major job) :roll: to repair failed seals. It's also had to have the injectors replaced :insomnia: and we've also had overheating concerns - the automatic throttle has also given jip :x So it hasn't been all sweetness and light.

TAKE COMPUTERS OUT OF DIGGERS PLEASE! We would have much happier times and save a fortune - Do they not realise to put highly senistive equipment on something which lives with vibration,dirt, water,dust and all the rest of an earthmovers environments is asking for trouble :dizzy:

Enjoy the photos - the pressence of the rainbows was a freeky coincidence - possibly proving that there is really gold at the end of a rainbow -
Cheers - CJM

Hi Chris
Good health to enjoy the new machine!

When I saw the ace bates skips I suddenly realized where you are-any chance of coming up to your site to get a look at your machines???? I do not live that far away-outside the village of Richhill.
