444 Backhoe Loader
Proven Cat® Engine
Powered with proven and reliable Cat® engine. There are two engine options, Tier 2 equivalent Cat 3054C engine with 74.5 kW and Tier 3 equivalent C4.4 engine with 74.5 kW. Both the options deliver superior performance with best in class fuel efficiency.
Operator Comfort and Control
Pilot Hoe Controls provide smooth and comfort to operators. These controls mounted on fully adjustable pods offer the operator finer controls whilst giving improved ergonomics.
Excavator Style Boom
The Excavator Style Boom is iconic to Cat backhoe loader (BHL). This gives the operator more dig depth and reach when working around obstacles meaning less repositioning of the machine is required.
Powerful and Efficient Hydraulics
The load sensing and closed center hydraulic system actively matches power and flow to the demand and delivers best in class fuel efficiency and better component life. Flow sharing valves provide greater control and precision to the operation.
Power Management Modes
The operator can choose between Eco Mode, or Standard Mode depending on job and site conditions. Eco mode will save the operator fuel, lowering their owning and operating costs.
Product Link™
Product Link™ comes as standard on the Cat BHL (however, depends on the local restrictions if any). Cat Product Link offers data like machine location, Service Meter Units (Hours) (SMU), etc.
