Caterpillar Machines Mini Excavators 305E CR

The Cat 305E CR delivers high performance in a compact radius design to help you work in the tightest applications. Comfortable Working Environment Spacious and comfortable operator station with excellent visibility and legroom keeps the operator comfortable and reduces fatigue. Standard features include reclining suspension seat with adjustable wrist rests, pilot operated controls on all services including travel levers and dozer functions, a pattern control changer (not available in all regions) accessible from the cab to switch between excavator and backhoe style controls and ample storage space under the seat that can be locked for added security. Fast, Powerful Digging with Load Sensing Hydraulics High digging forces and fast cycle times deliver the productivity that your job demands. Load sensing hydraulics optimize flow for smooth, powerful performance and increased fuel efficiency. Engine Automatic engine idle automatically lowers engine revolutions when not in use to conserve fuel and lower environmental noise and emissions. With the standard automatic two speed feature, the machine will automatically balance high speed and torque travel requirements based on the conditions to give the operator the optimum speed and control. The machine can be put in low gear if slower travel is desired while in tight conditions. COMPASS The COMPASS control panel was specifically designed by Caterpillar for compact excavators. It adds several new features to the machines including: passcode protected security system, adjustable auxiliary work tool flow control, economy mode, continuous flow, pattern changer and maintenance and performance information. Compact Radius The compact radius design gives greater machine versatility and the capability to work within confined areas. This allows the operator to concentrate on the work being done without having to worry about damaging the back of the machine or other job site obstacles. Serviceability Easy access to the radiator and oil cooler results in simplified cleaning and reduced maintenance time, S·O·SSM oil sampling valve allows easy sampling of the hydraulic fluid for preventative maintenance and 500 hour engine oil and filter change period reduces operating costs and machine downtime.
