Cat6 980K "12-ton"

[Tony]

Hello, all,

Wondering if anyone here has any seat time running Cat's 980K with what they call the "12 ton" package (aggregate handling). If so, what were your impressions?

Best,
Tony

I've operated a 980G a little different but almost the same

What all is enatiled in the 12 ton package? Counter weight and the 8yd HP bucket? Our 980H loaders all have 7.5 yd buckets but in good fine gravel will get 12-13 tonne (metric) every pass and handle it quite well.

Ben,

I'm not quite sure what the package consists of. It's a package that the local Cat dealer is talking about, but I can't find a spec on it anywhere.
