Cat 303.5E CR

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.
• Two post canopy design for better visibility to the work area.
• A pattern control changer (not available in all regions) is accessible from the cab to switch between excavator and backhoe style controls.
• Ample storage space under the seat that can be locked for added security.

All four E-Series models feature increased stability, while maintaining the compact radius design. This increased stability leads to more productivity and versatility through the use of heavier work tools and the optional long stick.

The 303.5E CR features a zero tail swing design. On these models, the radius of the upper body stays entirely within the width of the undercarriage.

The E-Series is available with a mechanical pin-grabber or a hydraulic pin-grabber quick coupler option. The coupler design uses a wedge to keep the tool secure to the coupler, reducing wear and maintaining a tight fit through the life of the coupler. The hydraulic coupler allows the operator to change tools without leaving the comfort of the cab.

The dozer function is pilot controlled from inside the cab, providing smooth, proportional operation. The standard float function is enabled by pushing the lever fully forward into the detent position. Cleanup and backfilling is easier since the operator does not have to adjust the blade height during travel.

The standard rubber track lets you work on multiple surfaces such as grass, pavement or stone without damaging the surface or machine.

Convenient service features make maintenance easy, reducing your downtime:

• Lifting side hood allows access to air filter, main implement valve, 1-way/2-way auxiliary flow selector, accumulator, fuel filter and hydraulic tank. This eliminates the need to lift the cab when maintaining and servicing the machine.
• Swing out rear door provides access to major components and service points including engine oil check and fill, vertically mounted engine oil filter, starter motor and alternator.
• Easy access to the radiator and oil cooler results in simplified cleaning and reduced maintenance times.
• SOSSM oil sampling valve allows easy sampling of the hydraulic fluid for preventative maintenance.
• 500 hour engine oil and filter change period reduces operating costs and machine downtime.
