Performance,
Power and
Control —
The top of the class
The 821B and 921B offer outstanding
performance, power and control.
Whether you’re digging into a bank
of gravel or dirt, hauling logs from
truck to pile, or working in scrap
handling, you’ll experience for
yourself the precision and power that
put these wheel loaders at the top of
their class.

Customer-driven features make the

821B and 921B the wheel loaders of
choice for maximum productivity
and minimum fatigue. The cab
design offers controls within easy
reach, panoramic vision, and
operator comfort. Superior hydraulic
capacities and maximum loader
productivity make them the right
choice for the most demanding jobs.
Choose from the standard or
extended reach models to meet your
specific job requirements.

The Case B Series wheel loaders –

621B, 721B, 821B and 921B – carry
on a tradition of exceptional power
and control to get the job done
every time.
