Overview

Cat Landfill Compactors are designed with durability built in, ensuring maximum availability through multiple life cycles. With optimized performance and simplified serviceability, our machines allow you to operate more efficiently and safely. Introduced in 1993, the 836 has been the industry leader for over 20 years. Focused on helping our customers succeed, we have continued to build upon each new series. The 836K continues our legacy of reliability, performance, safety, operator comfort, serviceability, and efficiency.

POWERFUL EFFICIENCY
  • Impeller Clutch Torque Converter (ICTC) reduces wheel slippage and tip wear by modulating rim pull from 100 to 20 percent while depressing left pedal. After 20 percent rim pull is achieved the left pedal applies the brake.
  • Reduces wheel slippage without reducing hydraulic efficiency.
LONG TERM VALUE AND DURABILITY
  • Designed and made with purpose-built structures to remain safe and durable for the long run.
  • Full box-section rear frame resists torsional shock and twisting forces.
  • Heavy-duty steering cylinder mounts efficiently conduct steering loads into the frame.
  • Axle mounting, lower hitch pin, frame plate, and bearing size have all been increased for longer life.
PERFORMANCE WITH LESS FUEL
  • Advanced Productivity Electronic Control System (APECS) delivers consistent, smooth shifting and efficiency through integrated electronic controls.
  • Strategic use of metallurgy and heat treating ensures long-life gears.
  • The Cat C18 engine is designed for maximum fuel efficiency and increased power density.
