New 6060 Electric Hydraulic Mining Shovel in North Carolina

Back to Home

The Cat® 6060 Electric Hydraulic Mining Shovel combines everything you love about the 6060 with everything you demand from Caterpillar to deliver a shovel that uses efficient electric power to help you produce more — while keeping uptime high and operating costs low. Powered by dual electric motors, the 6060 Electric uses power more efficiently than diesel machines and produces zero direct carbon emissions.
With its rated backhoe payload of 65 tonnes (71) tons and face shovel payload of 61 tonnes (67 tons), the 6060 was among the first shovels in the mining industry tailor-made for mines using 240-ton (218-tonne) haul trucks, providing an efficient 4-pass solution to meet production capacity in these environments.

    Hydraulic pump shop is unmatched. I made the mistake of going somewhere else before bringing my pump here. These guys were more than helpful and friendly. Went out of their way to help me find a solution for my problem even when it didn’t benefit them. This is how businesses should be run. I won’t go anywhere else.

    Too bad Poole Cat Field Service is better at invoicing than actually getting my machines moving.

    A prompt and courteous technician arrived, and correctly diagnosed two problems with my mini Ex. Thank you. I corrected those problems, but machine still did not work.

    He diagnosed a fuel problem as a clogged filter, rather than a bad fuel pump which I managed to diagnose. I also figured out, via help on the internet, that the fuel shut-off solenoid was bad.

    Machine runs fine now. So my advice is to check the internet, before letting Poole charge you $870 for a two hour field visit. And you can find a perfectly fine aftermarket fuel pump for $20 rather than the $250 that Poole charges... and it arrives faster,

    Need to teach a tech how to drive a service truck. Around 2:48 on highway 40 east, the truck pictured (plate ending in 8236) flew across 3 lanes of traffic to meet the Cleveland rd exit. Almost hit a semi and caused me to swerve with my children in the car. Glad making the exit was more important than children’s lives.
