Engine

Each of the E2 models is equipped with the engine solution to best support the power and performance required based on the weight class and application. Also, standard features like auto idle offer consistent lower engine speeds to increase engine life and offer fuel savings. Smart Technology is a new feature of the 303.5E2. Through the integration of this technology with the U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final 23.5 hp (17.6 kW) engine, the machine is able to meet and exceed performance of the previous generation 303.5E. Additionally, testing on the 303.5E2 revealed an 8% fuel economy improvement and 7% greater efficiency over the E Series.

Automatic Two Speed

With the standard automatic two speed feature, the machine will automatically balance high speed and torque travel requirements based on job site 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.

UNLOCK the new features and experience the value of the exclusive COMPASS control panel on the E2 Series compact excavators

The COMPASS control panel on the Cat E2 Series mini hydraulic excavators was specifically designed by Caterpillar for compact excavators. It adds several new features to the machines increasing the amount of customer value. All of the following features are now standard on all E2 Series models. Complete – All of the control panel features are standard; Operation – Simple operation of the pattern changer, hydraulic quick coupler and fuel gauge visibility all at the push of a button; Maintenance – Maintenance intervals, diagnostics and work hours; Performance – Save up to 20% fuel while maintaining optimum performance levels; And; Security – Anti-theft device with individual user and master passwords; System – Ergonomically designed control panel

Passcode Protected Security System

A standard anti-theft device now comes on every E2 Series compact excavator. A five digit alphanumeric password is required to start the machine when the anti-theft feature is enabled. There is a master password and up to five user passwords can be created by the owner if desired. Keep your machine safe on a busy job site by locking it when you are not around.

Adjustable Auxiliary Work Tool Flow Control

The E2 Series machines now have simple adjustability of the flow going down the boom and stick to the work tool. Both the standard main line and optional secondary auxiliary hydraulics can be adjusted on a scale of 1–15 through a few buttons on the control panel. Adjust the flow to your different tools with a simple push of a button.

Continuous Flow

Once this feature is enabled through a button on the monitor, the E2 Series machines can run in continuous flow mode. With the auxiliary hydraulics on the right hand joystick, just hold the roller switch at the desired flow rate and direction for 2.5 seconds and the machine will maintain that flow rate until it is turned off. Maintain hydraulic flow to your tools at any flow and in any direction with the simple push of a button.

Pattern Changer

Change the operating pattern between excavator and backhoe with a simple press of a button from the comfort of the cab. Exclusive push button pattern changer is safe and easy.

Maintenance and Performance Information

Easily keep track of various maintenance and performance parameters of your machine. Reset the maintenance intervals and ensure the machine is receiving proper care maximizing the life of the machine.

Compact Radius Design

Rubber Track

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

Steel Track Option

Optional steel track is available for harsh conditions such as demolition. The extra weight of the steel tracks generally provides better stability when digging over the side of the machine.

Dozer Blade

See more                        

Simple Dozer Control with Float Function

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.

Excellent Blade Visibility

Visibility to the blade is excellent in any position, allowing the blade to be positioned behind the operator and away from the front linkage for better access when back dragging and finishing in tight areas.

Angle Blade Option

Increase machine versatility with the Cat angle dozer blade. Built for strength and durability, the hydraulic angle blade features a hardened steel wear edge and good protection to cylinders and hydraulic lines. The angle blade can be positioned straight ahead or angled up to 25 degrees to the left or right. This reduces the number of times required to back up and reposition when backfilling so you can finish the job faster. All functions of the blade are controlled with one joystick using a proportional roller switch for the angle function.

Coupler and Work Tool Options
