High Performance

  • The C18 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, Japan 2014, and China Nonroad Stage IV emission standards.
  • Match the machine to the job with three power modes - Power, Smart, and Eco. Smart mode automatically matches engine and hydraulic power to working conditions, helping provide maximum power when needed and reducing power when it isn't to save fuel.
  • The advanced electro-hydraulic system helps provide the optimum balance of power and efficiency while giving you the control you need.
  • Available SmartBoom™ lets the boom freely travel up and down without using any pump flow so operators can focus on stick and bucket work.
  • Valve priority helps put hydraulic pressure and flow where you need it.
  • The variable gauge undercarriage retracts for easy transportation and expands to help increase stability and lifting capacity.
  • Program and store your preferred power mode and joystick settings using your Operator ID. The machine will automatically remember your selections.

Integrated Cat® Technologies

  • Cat Payload helps you achieve precise load targets to improve your operating efficiency. Pick up a load of material with a grapple attachment and get a real-time weight estimate without swinging.
  • VisionLink™ provides actionable data insights for all assets - regardless of fleet size or equipment manufacturer. *Review equipment data from your desktop or mobile device to maximize uptime and optimize assets. Dashboards provide information such as hours, miles, location, idle time, and fuel utilization. Make informed decisions that lower costs, simplify maintenance, and improve safety and security on your jobsite.
  • Swing Assist automatically stops machine swing at operator-defined preset points. Simply swing to the desired stopping point and activate using the machine monitor or a preset joystick button. As you get closer, the machine will automatically decelerate and not allow swing past the set point. Swing Assist helps you hit more repetitive swing targets to help reduce fuel use and improve cycle times.
  • Remote Troubleshoot is a mobile application that allows your Cat dealer to perform diagnostic testing on your connected machine remotely to help ensure that issues are resolved quickly and with less downtime.
  • Remote Flash is a mobile application that allows you to update onboard software without a technician being present, allowing you to initiate software updates when convenient, increasing your overall operating efficiency.

Work in Comfort

  • The cab has a wide seat that adjusts for operators of all sizes.
  • Control the machine comfortably with easy-to-reach controls all located in front of you.
  • Standard automatic climate control keeps you at the right temperature all shift long.
  • Stow your gear with plenty of in-cab storage beneath and behind the seat, overhead, and in the consoles. A cup holder, document holder, bottle holder, and coat hook are also provided.
  • Connect to personal devices via the standard radio's USB ports and Bluetooth® technology.
  • Optional auxiliary relay powers on and turns off CB radios, beacon lights, and other attachments without taking your hands off the joysticks.
  • Cat continues to improve user interface functionality for operators of all skill levels. The touchscreen monitor is an easy-to-use operating tool that presents the jobsite dashboard with an intuitive format.
  • Productivity applications are displayed in grid view to read on the go, and touchscreen navigation is programmed to ensure job performance continues without any hold-ups.

Reliable, Durable, and Versatile

  • Count on your machine to withstand wear throughout the years. Boom, sticks, and other high-stress areas are reinforced with thick multi-plate fabrications, castings, and forgings to help ensure quality and reliability.
  • Work up to 3000 m (9,840 ft) above sea level without de-rating.
  • Don't let the temperature stop you from working. The machine has a standard cold-start capability of -18°C (0°F).
  • Auto warm-up speeds up hydraulic oil warming in cold temperatures and helps prolong the life of components.
  • Expand your work capabilities with attachments for a variety of applications.

Maintenance

  • Track your machine's filter life and maintenance intervals via the in-cab monitor.
  • Scheduled Oil Sampling (S•O•SSM) ports are located at ground level, helping simplify maintenance and allowing for quick, easy extraction of fluid samples for analysis.
  • The long life of the air intake filter with pre-cleaner helps save on maintenance costs.
  • The hydraulic oil filter helps provide high filtration performance, anti-drain valves to help keep oil clean when the filter is replaced, and long life with a 3,000-hour replacement interval.
  • High-efficiency cooling fans run only when needed; you can program intervals so they automatically reverse to help keep cores clean without interrupting your work.
  • Boost productivity with proactive service reminders. The integrated vehicle health management system alerts the operator with step-by-step service guidance and the parts needed to help reduce unnecessary downtime.

Safety Features

  • Cab Avoidance helps you avoid contact between your work tool attachment and the cab.
  • Standard 2D E-fence prevents your machine from moving outside operator-defined parameters.
  • The secondary engine shutoff switch stops all fuel to the engine when activated and shuts down the machine.
  • Keep your machine secure with Operator ID. Use your PIN code on the monitor to enable the push-button starting feature.
  • Enjoy great all-around visibility with the help of small cab pillars and large windows. Rearview, left-side, and right-side-view cameras are standard.
  • Standard 1800-lumen LED exterior lights illuminate your surroundings for a safer work environment.
  • Service platform design provides easy, safe, and quick access to the upper service platform. The service platform steps use an anti-skid punch plate to help prevent slipping.
  • The rear cab door entry design features enclosed stairways and integrated lights for well-lit access in all working conditions.
  • Boom and stick lowering check valves prevent reverse flow, keeping your front linkage securely in place should the hydraulic system unexpectedly lose pressure.
  • Make service work more accessible and safer with optional inspection lighting. With the flip of a switch, lights will illuminate the engine pump, battery, and radiator compartments to enhance visibility.

Sustainability

  • The Cat C18 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, Japan 2014, and China Nonroad Stage IV emission standards.
  • Cat diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) and are compatible* with ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels** up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester)*** or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrogenated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.
  • Cat Scheduled Oil Sampling (S•O•SSM) Services help reveal excessive wear, contaminated fluids or other "unseen" issues that can shorten component life. In many cases, you can extend oil and coolant change intervals by using fluid monitoring. Consult your Cat dealer or the machine's operation and maintenance manual for more information.
  • Cat 2D E-fence keeps the front linkage within a predefined work area to avoid hazards such as traffic - not only helping keep personnel safe and helps avoid repairs, downtime, and costly jobsite fines.
  • Extended maintenance intervals help reduce downtime but decrease the amount of fluid and filters that are replaced over the life of the machine.
  • VisionLink™ displays the CO₂ emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.
  • Remote Flash helps minimize downtime and maintenance time while keeping your asset running with maximum efficiency. Alerts for machine updates are sent virtually from your Cat dealer and updates can be deployed without a dealer technician needing to be onsite.
  • Remote Troubleshoot helps decrease maintenance time and keeps your machine running with maximum efficiency by allowing your Cat dealer to virtually test the machine while working. Once a problem is identified, a technician can fix it the first time, saving time and money.
