Description
The Kato CL35-4f is a mid-size compact track loader powered by a 62 HP Kubota V2403-CR diesel engine rated at 2,700 RPM. It delivers 6,474 lbs of bucket digging force and carries a 12.7 ft³ heaped bucket, giving contractors serious material-handling capability in a machine that fits where full-size loaders cannot. Canopy operating weight is 7,804 lbs (3,540 kg).
Dual-speed travel runs 4.2 mph (6.8 km/h) in low and 6.2 mph (10.0 km/h) in high, so operators get precise positioning and quick job-site repositioning from the same machine. A 30° gradeability rating and low 5.62 psi ground pressure let the CL35-4f climb slopes and float over soft or sensitive ground where rubber-tire machines lose traction. Rated operating capacity is 1,721 lbs (781 kg) at the 35% tip and 2,458 lbs (1,115 kg) at 50%, and the 24-gallon (90.8 L) tank keeps it running through the day.
Like all Kato equipment, the CL35-4f is built to be straightforward: simple controls without endless sub-menus, so experienced operators are productive from the first bucket. It is new equipment backed by the Kato CES dealer network, which keeps common parts stocked in the U.S. to keep downtime short.
