Case new line of compact track loaders

A new line of compact track loaders combines the technology in the company's new 400 Series skid-steer loaders with Case's long experience building undercarriages for crawler dozers and excavators. The vertical-lift 445CT and radial-lift 450CT have net horsepower ratings of 74 and 82, respectively, with lift capacities of 3,500 and 3,857 pounds. The undercarriages add about 1,000 pounds to the basic skid-steer configuration and, as a result, breakout forces and tipping loads get a boost.
