Cat® 374 Hydraulic Excavator

No matter how hard the work, the Cat® 374 Excavator is built to do it. Three modes of operation, Power, Smart, and Eco, help operators reduce fuel consumption and optimize performance. Built for durability, the 374 is structurally sound with reinforced track rollers, booms, sticks, upper and lower frames. Simple, easy-to-use onboard technology such as Cat Payload, Cat Grade with 2D, Lift Assist, 2D E-Fence, and Work Tool Recognition helps boost efficiency and jobsite safety. The deluxe and standard cab options feature operator-pleasing ergonomic amenities such as the front-facing control panel, keyless pushbutton start, and large touchscreen monitor with jog dial keys.
