Handle Extreme Volumes With Power and Capacity
As the largest P‑Tier loader, the 904 is built for massive material movement and high-capacity loading, making it ideal for quarry, mining, and large-scale production environments.
Maximize Loading Efficiency at Scale
Advanced payload technologies like SmartWeigh™ (when equipped) help operators consistently hit target loads, improving cycle efficiency and increasing total tons moved per shift.
Built for Continuous Performance in Harsh Conditions
Heavy-duty structures, reinforced drivetrain components, and jobsite-proven systems are designed to withstand extreme workloads and keep machines productive with minimal downtime.
