Infinite Variable Speeds (hydrostatic transmission)
- Smooth controls, more operator comfort
- Increased operator productivity
Joysticks for Transmission and Work Tools
- Easy to maneuver
- Intuitive controls minimize training requirements
High Reach Work Tool
- Loader arm allows cleaning of the walls of the hold
- Increases versatility of the machine
Track-Type Undercarriage
- Low ground pressure for better traction in some materials
- Several shoe widths available or can be manufactured at order to meet customer requirements
- Optional center hole shoes reduce track packing and track chain tightening which extends undercarriage life
Lifting Eyes
- Front eyes welded on the Track Roller Frame (TRF)
- Rear eyes mounted on the main frame
- Wide spacing for good stability during lifting
Sound
- Sound suppressed cab and air suspended seat reduce operator fatigue and increase concentration
- The sound levels measured per ISO 6396 reach 76 dB(A) for 963D
Visibility

- Day and night operations are lighted with 8 halogen lights: 4 lights facing frontward, 2 lights facing rearward and 2 facing sideways
Rear Engine and Cooling System Location
- Improved machine balance
- Engine less exposed to dust, increase engine life
- Limit plugging of radiator core
- Better visibility at front
- Reduce O&O cost
Reversing Fan
- The air flow can be either automatically or manually reversed. Maintains proper heat transfer by blowing material out of the radiator core.
- The hinged radiator grill gives easy access to the cooling system of the machine
- The hinged hydraulic fan makes the cleaning of the radiator easy and faster
Heavy Duty Bumper
- Gives outstanding protection for the rear of the machine
- Cooling system is well protected in case of accidental impacts with a wall of the shiphold
Maintenance and Serviceability
- Filters and other systems are accessible from the ground on each side of the machine
- Cab can be tilted 90° with a crane or 30° with a hydraulic jack allowing job site repair
- Makes the maintenance of the machine easier for engine or hydraulic components
Engine Air Precleaner
- Debris is centrifugally removed from the airstream and delivers cleaner air to the engine filter
- Air filter life is extended
Work Tool Options
- Pin-on trim blade for all material
- Pin-on trim blade for coal
- Pin-on general purpose bucket
- Pin-on multi purpose bucket The 963D can also be equipped with a Fusion™ quick coupler that allows to switch work tools easily.
