Interior Condition - Good Misc Info - Bidders are encouraged to inspect. **This vehicle is 3 years from the MFG date, we are offering a 5% Buyers Premium when paying with cash or certified funds** The following general information is web-sourced and may contain variances from the subject unit: 2023 Cat 938M Wheel Loader represents an incredibly efficient, high-performance medium-duty machine. By pairing a smart hydrostatic powertrain with an updated ergonomic cab, this setup maximizes cycle times while minimizing operator fatigue. Here is a comprehensive look at how these specifications translate into work site performance. Engine: Heavy-Duty Performance & Efficiency The heart of this wheel loader is the Cat C7.1 engine , custom-tailored for fuel efficiency and low-speed, high-torque work. Power Output: Delivers a stout 184 HP (137 kW) when running in Performance Mode (HP+). This setting increases hydraulic speeds and engine response by roughly 10-12% for aggressive digging and fast cycle times. Configuration: A 7.01-liter turbocharged and aftercooled 6-cylinder diesel engine built to absorb heavy spikes in loading demand. Emissions: Utilizes a completely self-managing Clean Emission Module featuring a Fit-for-Life Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) . The operator never has to pause work for regeneration, as the system cleans itself automatically in the background. Intelligent Hydrostatic Transmission Caterpillar's modern hydrostatic ("Hystat") drivetrain acts like a smart automatic transmission but provides infinite variable speed adjustments and precise control. 4-Range Capability: Electronically split into 4 speed ranges covering ground speeds from a crawl at 0.6 mph to a rapid transport speed of 25 mph . Creeper Control: Found in Range 1, this lets you strictly limit maximum ground speed via the in-cab display without dropping engine RPMs. This is ideal for maintaining full hydraulic tool performance at a slow, continuous pace. Directional Shifting & Traction: Smooth Forward/Reverse (F/R) directional shift aggressiveness is adjustable. It also includes an integrated Rimpull Control system to dynamically govern tire torque, virtually eliminating wheel spin on slippery underfoot conditions. Premium Operator Environment (Spacious Cab) The dynamic M-Series cab mimics automotive-style creature comforts to ensure operators remain fresh and focused through long shifts. Ergonomics & Controls: Features a premium suspension seat with seat-mounted joystick controls . Because the joystick housing moves with the travel of the seat, it isolates your hands from bumpy, rocky terrain. Visibility: Minimalist, thin cab pillars and massive windows afford an exceptional panoramic view of the work tool, rear contours, and blind spots. Climate Control: Fully enclosed, pressurized, and sealed to block out harmful job site dust and noise. Includes automatic temperature control and standard rear window defrosting lines. Technology Integration: Operates with a primary LCD display paired with a full-color secondary touchscreen display. Soft-touch keys allow operators to adjust lift/tilt kickouts, set hydraulic flow settings, and review onboard diagnostics effortlessly. Heavy-Duty Loader Bucket & Undercarriage #345-2426 Loader Bucket (replacement cost $11,500.00) This is a rugged, 3.5 cubic yard heavy-duty bucket designed primarily for loose material handling and aggressive pile dressing. Weighing 2,215 lbs , it leverages an open-throat, curved side-bar design to secure superior material retention and achieve fill factors up to 10% higher than traditional flat-walled designs. Titan MXL 20.5R25 Tires (replacement cost around $1,800.00) A rugged, radial loader-tier tire footprint providing high traction, stability, and excellent puncture resistance when handling dense loads over gravel or broken concrete.
