CAT 994 loader
Manufacturer: NZG
Scale: 1:50
You don't see one of these everyday... look at the size of this
thing the tires alone are over twice the size of that man below
The cab as a thick R.O.P.S. frame over it to protect the operator
and inside includes and operators seat and steering wheel
The enormous rubber tires on this model are what make it so
unique (I wonder what one of those costs on the real machine!)
Here's a frontal picture to show the large bucket and details
Rear view showing all the walways and great details including
ladders, railings, large radiator vent, and thick under counter weight
The other side is just as detailed
An above picture shows all the upper details like the FOUR exchaust
stacks and all the srrounding railings
The thick front boom includes two large hydraulics for maxiumum
bucket force
Here's a close-up of the toothed bucket with protective upper
screening and wear guards under
And of course the 994 rotates by center hydraulics to steer
The rear axle as a full suspension system, as you can see
here as it goes over that rock all wheels stay on the ground and
the bucket remains flat
The bucket has full movement and can be tilted down to dig
down low...
...brought up to scoop...
...raised to reach over haul truck...
...and fully dumped
This is a HUGE model (as you can see here compared next to the
smaller NORSCOT 992G loader) and a great job done by NZG. This is a
great model for anyone who likes loaders or mining equipment. There
is also a CAT 994D model available which includes black railings
Wow not much needs to be said about this photo, that massive 793C
truck is filled in just seconds, 3 scoops from the 994 overfills the truck!
