434 Backhoe Loader

The Cat® 434 Backhoe Loader provides a proven engine, improved operator comfort, greater lifting performance, an optional powershift transmission, an Excavator Style Boom, powerful and efficient hydraulics, three Power Management Modes, and Product Link™.

Proven Cat® Engine

Powered with proven and reliable Cat® engine. There are two power rating options for the Tier 2 equivalent Cat 3054C engine with 68.5 kW and 74.5 kW. For the Tier 3 equivalent C4.4 engine this comes with a power rating of 74.5 kW. All the options deliver superior performance with best in class fuel efficiency.

Improved Operator Comfort

Pilot hoe controls are an optional upgrade on your 434. These controls mounted on fully adjustable pods offer the operator finer controls whilst giving improved ergonomics and comfort.

Greater Lifting Performance

The option of a larger boom cylinder will give greater lifting performance on the back of the 434 machine.

Powershift Transmission (Optional)

The 4 speed powershift transmission, improves operator comfort by utilizing the Power Shuttle Lever to shift gears. There is no floor-mounted gear shift lever, improving the already spacious work environment.

Excavator Style Boom

The Excavator Style Boom is iconic to the 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.

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.
