track loader

Treaded construction vehicle

A track loader is a type of compact construction equipment that moves on continuous tracks rather than wheels, combining the mobility of a tracked vehicle with a front-mounted bucket for loading, digging, and pushing material.

The tracks provide better traction and weight distribution on soft or uneven ground than wheeled loaders: We brought in a track loader to clear the muddy site.
