Available in Mill Hall, Pennsylvania, this 2008 CAT 259B for sale is a compact track loader showing approximately 2,800 hours and offered at $29,000 OBO. The major selling point on this machine is recent engine work: according to the seller, the engine was rebuilt last week. The seller also reports that one track is new and that the machine is currently working and operating well.
For a buyer comparing older compact track loaders, the combination of roughly 2,800 reported hours and an extremely recent engine rebuild deserves attention. Major engine work can represent a substantial investment in a used track loader, making the details of the rebuild especially valuable for a prospective buyer to review.
Recently Rebuilt Engine
The most important update on this CAT 259B is the seller-reported engine rebuild completed last week.
Rather than offering the machine with an unknown or long-term engine history, the seller reports that substantial engine work has just been completed and the loader is now back in operation.
Prospective buyers should ask for the exact scope of the rebuild, including the components replaced, who performed the work, the engine hours at the time of repair, and any invoices or parts receipts that may be available.
If supporting documentation is available, it would be particularly valuable for a buyer considering this machine.
Approximately 2,800 Reported Hours
The hour meter is reported at approximately 2,800 hours.
Hours are an important consideration on any used compact track loader, but they become only one part of the overall evaluation when major mechanical work has recently been performed.
With the engine reportedly rebuilt only last week, buyers will want to consider both the machine's total chassis hours and the extremely limited operating time accumulated since the engine work.
Track and Undercarriage Update
The seller reports that one track is new.
That is an important maintenance item on a tracked machine and gives the next owner one recently replaced component in an area that can represent a meaningful ownership expense.
The condition and age of the opposite track, along with the rollers, idlers, sprockets and remaining undercarriage components, have not yet been documented and should be inspected by a prospective buyer.
Compact Tracked Design
The CAT 259B belongs to Caterpillar's compact track loader family, combining the maneuverability of a skid-steer-style loader with a tracked undercarriage.
Caterpillar describes its compact track loaders as being designed for applications including general construction, landscaping, agriculture and snow removal, with compatibility for a broad range of work tools.
That makes a machine in this size class useful for contractors, farms, landscaping operations, property maintenance, material handling, grading, cleanup and other jobs where flotation and traction can be advantageous.
Loader Capability and Hydraulics
Published Caterpillar specifications available for the later 259B Series 3 list approximately 71 net horsepower, a 2,950-pound rated operating capacity at 50% of tipping load, and a 5,900-pound tipping load. The same factory literature lists standard auxiliary hydraulic flow at approximately 22 gallons per minute with 3,335 psi loader hydraulic pressure.
Because this machine is seller-identified as a 2008 CAT 259B, these later Series 3 figures are provided only as useful model-family reference information. The exact specifications and configuration of this individual machine should be verified from its serial number before purchase.
Size and Operating Weight
Later published CAT 259B Series 3 specifications show an operating weight of approximately 8,934 pounds with 12.6-inch tracks, increasing to roughly 9,227 pounds with the wider 15.7-inch track configuration.
Actual transport weight will depend on this machine's configuration, attachment, track setup, fluids and any added equipment.
Buyers arranging transportation should verify the actual dimensions and operating weight before dispatching a trailer or carrier.
Seller Reports Good Operation
The seller reports that the CAT is working great following the recent engine rebuild and is available for sale now.
Trustworthy Equipment has not independently inspected the machine, so serious buyers are encouraged to inspect the loader, review the engine-rebuild information and confirm the undercarriage condition before completing a purchase.
Asking $29,000 OBO
The current asking price is $29,000 or best offer.
For buyers looking specifically for a used CAT 259B, tracked skid loader or compact track loader, the recent engine rebuild and new track are two of the most significant features of this particular machine.
