This 2005 Caterpillar 914G wheel loader is powered by a 4.4L 4-cylinder Caterpillar 3054C diesel engine producing 95 HP, paired with a two-speed hydrostatic transmission. With 500 hours, the machine features an enclosed ROPS cab with air conditioning, heat, defrost, suspension cloth seat with armrests, and two-speed front and rear windshield wipers. The inspection confirms that the machine starts and operates, with no visible oil leaks and good overall frame and body condition.

The loader comes equipped with a 1.8-cubic-yard standard-lift Z-bar bucket with eight teeth, two-valve hydraulic controls, auxiliary lighting, wet disc brakes, travel alarm, hydraulic controls, and a 53-by-62-inch set of SL hook forks/tines. The hydraulic system operates well overall, with good lift and tilt cylinders, pumps and valves, and hose lines. The inspection noted that the bucket and hoist kickout functions are limited, with float and auto-lift not functioning.

The Caterpillar rides on 15.5-25 Goodyear tires with four tire chains and 27% average remaining tire life. The transmission, steering, brakes, axles, final drives, differentials, and loader frame were inspected and reported in good condition. The engine has some blow-by with smoke venting from the blow-by tube, while the coolant reservoir was empty at startup. With its enclosed cab, 1.8-yard bucket, hydrostatic transmission, auxiliary hydraulics, and articulated configuration, this 914G is well suited for loading, material handling, construction, landscaping, snow removal, and general utility applications.
