More Power. More Performance. More Comfort.

The Cat® 265 Compact Track Loader, with its vertical lift design, delivers extended reach and lift height for quick and easy truck loading. Its standard torsion suspension undercarriage system provides superior traction, flotation, stability, and speed to work in a wide range of applications and underfoot conditions.

Features may include:

Redesigned Operator Station
  • Redesigned Operator Station delivers a larger operating environment, and combined with additional seat travel, the 255 provides more space for operators of any size.
Ventilated And Heated High-Back Air Ride Seat
  • Available ventilated and heated high-back air ride seat with seat mounted adjustable joystick controls deliver industry-leading operator comfort.
High-Performance Power Train
  • High-performance power train provides selectable settings for drive power priority and maximum travel speed (overdrive) to customize the machine performance to match the task.
Three Levels Of Auxiliary Hydraulic Performance
  • Three levels of auxiliary hydraulic performance available Standard Flow, High Flow, and High Flow XPS. Standard flow for attachments that require a base level of auxiliary flow and horsepower, High Flow boosts the auxiliary flow for applications that demand additional hydraulic flow for increased attachment performance, and the High Flow XPS hydraulic system provides maximum auxiliary hydraulic performance by delivering additional flow and additional pressure for the most demanding attachments and applications
Electronically controlled Cat C2.8TA engine
  • Electronically controlled Cat C2.8TA (turbo after-cooled) engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards while delivering maximum horsepower across a wide RPM range and providing high torque for increased working performance, no matter the application
