416F BACKHOE LOADER

Spacious working environment for all day comfort.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Superior Comfort The ergonomic, automotive style operator station helps you work comfortably and productively all day long. Select the configuration that meets your needs - Canopy, Cab or Cab with air conditioning. Features include:

• Adjustable air suspension seat (standard)
• Excellent visibility over the hood
• Easy-to-read gauge cluster
• Ample legroom
• Storage compartments for tools and belongings

Ride Control The optional Ride Control System smoothes the ride in all conditions, including load and carry, highway roading or simply moving around the job site. The result is increased operator comfort, reduced operator fatigue and improved material retention.

Gauge Cluster The new gauge cluster provides a digital display of system information such as torque converter oil temperature, hour meter and operator settings.

Backhoe Controls Two mechanical control patterns are available; two lever excavator and two lever backhoe. Ergonomic, permanently attached foot pedals control auxiliary functions.

Built for performance, power and fuel efficiency.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Cat Engine The Cat 3054C DIT engine meets all U.S. EPA Tier 2/EU Stage II emission standards.

Transmission The standard power shuttle transmission provides four speeds forward and reverse. Hydraulically shifted clutches allow on-the-go direction and travel speed shifts.

• Hydraulic proportional control valves deliver smooth speed and directional shifts.
• Four Wheel Drive option improves mobility and loader performance in poor underfoot conditions and can be activated on-the-go.
• Maximum roading speed of 40 km/h (25 mph) improves travel time between job sites.

Brake Mode Selector Optional brake mode selector switch has three positions: two wheel drive, two wheel drive with all wheel braking and four wheel drive. Two wheel drive with all wheel braking provides better tire life while roading and engages the front axle when brakes are applied for improved braking performance.

Load-sensing system matches power to demand.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Powerful Hydraulic System The load-sensing, closed center hydraulic system matches pressure and flow to the job demands. Whether you’re in full trenching mode or digging around delicate services, you are in control. In applications such as production trenching where speed is important, the system will provide the flow needed to get the job done quickly and efficiently. New electronic pump torque limiter delivers improved power management and hydraulic performance. The load-sensing hydraulic system also delivers:

• Better fuel efficiency
• Quieter operation
• Reduced wear on components
• Cooler hydraulic temperatures
• Full dig and lift forces at any engine speed

Superior digging forces.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Boom The excavator-style boom is built for optimum performance and durability. The curved design provides added clearance when digging over obstacles or loading trucks. The narrow boom enhances the viewing area to the bucket and the trench throughout the operating range. More robust swing casting and double clevis design improves durability and reliability.

Stick Serrated edges on the stick provide improved material clamping for clearing and demolition applications. The optional extendible stick (E-stick) increases reach and dig depth by approximately 1.1 m (3.5 ft).

Thumbs Thumb mounting provisions are standard on every Cat Backhoe Loader for added machine versatility. Cat hydraulic thumbs are available for increased versatility. Mechanical thumbs are also available through your Cat dealer.

Strong lift and breakout.

BENEFITS AND FEATURES

New Loader Arms New front loader arms deliver more reach, dump height and breakout.

Single Tilt The standard single tilt loader linkage features strong lift and breakout forces for solid performance in backfilling and truck loading applications with pin-on buckets. The 416F is equipped with either a general purpose or multi-purpose pin-on bucket to meet your specific needs.

Return-to-Dig The return-to-dig system reduces loading cycle times by bringing the loader bucket back to the dig position with an easy pull of the lever. By the time the loader bucket is at ground level, the bucket is angled correctly for the next load or cut.
