Features:

The Cat® 309 CR Mini Excavator delivers maximum power and performance in a mini size to help you work in a wide range of applications.

ALL DAY COMFORT

� A sealed and pressurized cab is equipped with an improved air conditioning system, adjustable wrist rests and a suspension seat to help keep you working comfortably all day long.

EASY TO OPERATE

� Controls are easy to use and the intuitive Next Generation Monitor provides customizable machine operator preferences and easy to read machine information.

STICK STEER TRAVEL MODE

� Moving around the job site is even easier with the Cat Stick Steer option. Easily switch from traditional travel controls with levers and pedals to joystick controls with a push of a button. The benefit of less effort and improved control is in your hands!

BIG PERFORMANCE IN A MINI DESIGN

� Increased lifting, swinging, travel and multi-functioning performance helps you get the job done more efficiently. Dig-to-blade and dozer blade float features allow for easy clean up and long undercarriage provides improved stability.

HIGH FLOW

� Dedicated auxiliary hydraulic pump is ideal for running power-hungry attachments while allowing the machine to simultaneously travel and multifunction. This feature allows consistent pressure to the auxiliary lines with no loss of hydraulic power keeping your attachment running at full power maintaining optimal productivity.

SAFETY ON THE JOB SITE

� Your safety is our top priority. The Cat Mini Excavator is designed to help keep you safe on the job. A back-up camera, courtesy work lights and a fluorescent retractable seat belt with optional seat belt reminder system are just a few of the safety features we’ve built into the machine.

SIMPLE SERVICE FOR LESS DOWNTIME

� Maintenance is quick and easy on the Cat Mini Excavator.

Routine check points are easy to access at ground level with grouped service points and robust service panels.

LOWER OPERATING COSTS

� Equipped with features such as auto idle, auto engine shutdown, and efficient hydraulics with a variable displacement pump, the Cat Mini Excavator was designed with reducing your operating costs in mind.

EASE OF USE FOR CAT MINI EXCAVATORS

Ease of Use assists operators in controlling the machine to simplify operation, improve accuracy and enhance overall productivity on the job site.

Ease of Use is available equipped on your mini excavator from the factory or as an upgrade kit post purchase.

Operators can choose from two software packages, Indicate or E-Fence to suit their application needs.

INDICATE

Ease of Use Indicate is an entry-level grade system providing visual and audible indicators to where the bucket is versus a target grade to cut and fill to exact specifications the first time without overcutting.

applications.

E-FENCE

Ease of Use E-Fence automatically constrains machine motion within operator pre-set boundaries for Ceiling, Floor, Wall and Swing to avoid structures overhead, underground, in front or to the left or right of the machine.

applications.

CAT GRADE

Cat Grade is available as an aftermarket-installed automatics system that is easy to learn and use. Cat Grade Advanced 2D and 3D give you the ability to create, manage and grade simple to complex designs with accuracy ensuring cuts and fills are made to exact specifications.

Cat Grade reduces costs, improves accuracy, provides improved operator efficiency and enhances safety.

GRADE ADVANCED 2D

Cat Grade Advanced 2D allows the operator to set parameters for digging and leveling operations, including cross slope and work site main fall.

Grade Advanced 2D also lets the operator input, edit and work to basic 2D design plans from the operator’s seat.

GRADE 3D

Cat Grade 3D for excavators adds deeper design capabilities, plus, Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers and a correctional data source to achieve Real Time Kinematic (RTK) positioning guidance for more complex planes, slopes, contours and curves.

Availability varies by region, please contact our Cat dealer to discuss the best technology options for you and your application.

Engine

• The Cat® C3.3B engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards.

• Cat diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels** up to:

�20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester)* �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.

*�Engines with no aftertreatment devices can use higher blends, up to 100% biodiesel (for use of blends higher than 20% biodiesel, consult your Cat dealer).

**�Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels.

Air Conditioning System

• The air conditioning system on this machine contains the fluorinated greenhouse gas refrigerant R134a (Global Warming Potential = 1430).

The system contains 1.0 kg (2.20 lb) of refrigerant which has a CO2 equivalent of 1.430 metric tonnes (1.576 tons).

Paint

• Based on best available knowledge, the maximum allowable concentration, measured in parts per million (PPM), of the following heavy metals in paint are:

– Barium < 0.01%

– Cadmium < 0.01%

– Chromium < 0.01%

– Lead < 0.01%

Sound Performance

Operator Sound Pressure 72 dB(A) (ISO 6396:2008)*

Exterior Sound Power Level 99 dB(A) (ISO 6395:2008)**

*�The declared dynamic operator sound pressure levels per ISO 6396:2008. The measurements were conducted with the cab doors and windows closed.

**�The labeled sound power level for the CE marked configurations when measured according to the test procedure and conditions specified in 2000/14/EC.

Oils and Fluids

• Caterpillar factory fills with ethylene glycol coolants. Cat Diesel Engine Antifreeze/Coolant (DEAC) and Cat Extended Life Coolant (ELC) can be recycled. Consult your Cat dealer for more information.

• Cat Bio HYDO Advanced is an EU Ecolabel approved biodegradable hydraulic oil.

• Additional fluids are likely to be present, please consult the Operations and Maintenance Manual or the Application and Installation guide for complete fluid recommendations and maintenance intervals.

Features and Technology

• The following features and technology may contribute to fuel savings and/or carbon reduction. Features may vary.

Consult your Cat dealer for details.

– Advanced hydraulic systems balance power and efficiency

– �Power On Demand provides full time efficiency and power when you need it, and is transparent to the operator

– �Auto idle and auto engine shutdown

– �Extended maintenance intervals reduce fluid and filter consumption

– �Remote Flash and Remote Troubleshoot (if equipped)

– �Mini Hydraulic Excavator Ease of Use features improve operator efficiency minimizing fuel consumption (if equipped)

• A machine with higher recyclability rate will ensure more efficient usage of valuable natural resources and enhance End-of-Life value of the product. According to ISO 16714 (Earth-moving machinery – Recyclability and recoverability – Terminology and calculation method), recyclability rate is defined as percentage by mass (mass fraction in percent) of the new machine potentially able to be recycled, reused or both.

All parts in the bill of material are first evaluated by component type based on a list of components defined by the ISO 16714 and Japan CEMA (Construction Equipment Manufacturers Association) standards. Remaining parts are further evaluated for recyclability based on material type.

Because of variations of product configurations, the following values in the table may vary.

Recyclability – 96%
