Benefits
Cat® Customer Value Agreements simplify ownership with planned maintenance, genuine parts, dealer expertise, and smart monitoring to reduce costs and extend machine life. Flexible plans and options for customer‑managed (Convenience plan), dealer‑managed (Performance plan), or protection‑focused (Confidence) coverage.. With Toromont Fast Track, exclusive to Cat® CVAs, you get next‑day parts, two‑day repairs, and Cat® Credits if delays occur—keeping downtime off your schedule.
SAFETY
- Excellent visibility thanks to cab position that provides clear view to the digging and loading areas, floor window that provides a view to the tracks, LED lighting and standard Vision 360 camera monitoring system.
- Emergency egress ladder with a self-closing door located in direct proximity to the cab.
- Safer access with 45-degree powered access stairway that features emergency lowering via a nitrogen accumulator, which ensures it remains operational even when the machine shuts off.
- Safer electrical and/or mechanical maintenance thanks to lockable battery isolation switch.
- Safer service with improved sealing between motors and hydraulic pumps, improved routing and separation of hydraulic lines and electric cables.

- Independent Oil Cooling system that protects and extends the life of hydraulic components by keeping oil at optimal temperature.
PRODUCTIVITY & PERFORMANCE
- Up to 5% greater efficiency through Hydraulic Optimization, which dynamically assigns individual pumps or groups of pumps to deliver the exact flow and pressure that each hydraulic function requires.
- Faster boom movement by using float valves instead of pumps to lower the boom.
- Faster cycle times and improved energy efficiency delivered by closed-loop swing system, which also generates less heat.
- Greater operator control thanks to five circuit hydraulics that allow for two cylinder motions, two travel motions, and swing to be controlled simultaneously.
- Easier and faster face shovel operation with unique TriPower face shovel design, which generates superior mechanical leverage and control.
- Increased productivity and greater uptime with twin motors, which enable up to 65% of full production with a single motor.
BUCKETS & GET
- Buckets and ground engaging tools (GET) designed to maximize durability and productivity and ideally matched to your shovel and application.
- Integrated to work as part of a machine system — helping you achieve high productivity and the lowest cost per ton.
- Variety of sizes and material densities for the ideal match to your shovel and application.
- Deliver optimal payload when combined with Cat GET and wear components.
- Wear packages that protect your investment, including special liner material and lip shroud, wing shrouds and heel shrouds.
CONNECTIVITY & TECHNOLOGY
- Greater connectivity with improved Product Link™ Elite system, which increases the availability of data provided by the 6060.

- More room in the service compartment, plus easy access to slew gearboxes, rotary distributor, oil cooler and more.
- Clear arrangement of components on the superstructure for easy access and serviceability.
- Hose assemblies that can be built locally using all Cat material.
- Access to Cat Electronic Technician, which helps dealer service personnel more easily diagnose and prevent issues.
SUSTAINABILITY
- Twin electric motors use power efficiently and produce zero direct carbon emissions.
- Less heat and improved efficiency with the closed-loop swing circuit.
- Reduced owning and operating costs thanks to increased commonality of systems and components, plus a reduction in unique part numbers.
- Preservation of raw materials, energy conservation and reduced emissions through the Cat Reman program, which returns end-of-life components to like-new condition.
