HOLT CAT welcomed customers to its Anna, Texas, facility on July 8-9, 2026, for a hands-on compact equipment demo designed to give operators the opportunity to spend time in the seat of Cat machines while learning about available technology, attachments and dealer support.
The event featured four demonstration stations focused on lifting, grading, loading and digging.
During the demonstrations, HOLT CAT personnel walked attendees through the operation of Cat compact track loaders and compact excavators while discussing machine features and common applications.
Among the equipment demonstrated was the Cat 265 compact track loader equipped with a grading attachment. Staff also showcased the Cat 303.5 mini-hydraulic excavator, giving attendees the opportunity to operate the machine while learning digging techniques and machine controls.
HOLT CAT representatives highlighted several technology features available on the latest compact equipment, including operator profiles, adjustable control patterns and automatic bucket self-leveling. They also discussed the dealer's field service capabilities, preventative maintenance programs, machine training and attachment options available for a wide range of applications.
According to HOLT CAT, compact track loaders such as the Cat 255 and 265 continue to see strong demand because of their versatility across construction, landscaping and property maintenance applications. Dealer personnel also explained how compact excavators are commonly paired with compact track loaders to handle excavation, grading and material handling on the same project.
The demo event gave attendees an opportunity to evaluate equipment in realistic jobsite conditions while speaking directly with HOLT CAT sales representatives and machine specialists about machine configurations, technology packages and attachment options.
HOLT CAT will continue demo events in south Texas locations later in 2026.
