Optimal Loader/Truck Pass Matching
| Note | An optimum system match gives you a major productivity advantage. The 740 GC is an excellent match for the Cat 374F and 352F Hydraulic Excavators; and Cat 972M, 966M, and 962M Wheel Loaders. Having matched loading and hauling tools results in increased production and lower system costs per unit of volume moved. |
| Wheel Loader: 972M - Passes | 3 |
| Wheel Loader: 962M - Passes | 5 |
| Wheel Loader: 966M - Passes | 4–5 |
| Hydraulic Excavator: 374F - Passes | 3–4 |
