- Caterpillar 982M Wheel Loader # 55292
The
Caterpillar 982M Wheel Loader is released by Caterpillar late 2013. The
new all-purpose Caterpillar 982M joins the Medium Wheel Loader
programm. The Caterpillar 982M is a 2-pass match for larger on-highway
trucks, but it is not restricted to aggregates and loose material
re-handling. Design changes in the frames, linkage, hydraulics,
horsepower and powertrain extend the application range of the
Caterpillar 982M to sand and gravel and earth bank excavation and even
face loading in shot rock applications. The Caterpillar 982M has longer
standard lift arms than the 980M, making it a great rail car loader due
to the higher hinge pin height. With a full range of bucket sizes and
types plus other available work tools, the Caterpillar 982M Wheel Loader
provides a new option in this size class.
Specification highlights:
- Caterpillar C13 EPA Tier 4 Final ACERT™ engines
- Net Power – ISO 9249: 392hp
- Maximum Gross Vehicle Weight: 79,829lb
- Bucket Capacities: 6.0 yd3 - 18.3 yd3
- Bucket pin height std/high lift): 186in.
This
model is by Norscot equipped with a standard bucket that scoops and
dumps and a detailed operator's compartment. The model has articulated
steering in the Front and the Rear axle oscillates up and down. The
Tires have realistic tire tread. Finishing touch are the realistic
railings and grab bars and the authentic Caterpillar graphics. Retail
Price: US $98.95 plus shipping. The scale model will be, if all goes
according to plan, available for sales in the summer of 2014.
