This is a mini excavator—sometimes called a compact excavator or digger—a small tracked earth-moving machine designed for precision digging, trenching, and material handling in confined spaces. Mini excavators are widely used in construction, landscaping, utility work, and demolition. Caterpillar is a world-leading manufacturer of construction and earthmoving equipment, serving industries from infrastructure and mining to agriculture and forestry.
The Caterpillar 302-05 is a used 2022 model in as-good-as-new condition with only 80 operating hours. It is located in Germany and is priced at €35,000.
The machine is powered by a three-cylinder Caterpillar C1.1 diesel engine producing 16.1 kW (21.6 horsepower) and meets EU emission stage V through an optimized combustion process. It has an operating weight of approximately 2,130 kg, making it highly portable while retaining substantial digging capability.
The hydraulic system uses load-sensing technology with flow sharing and is built around an axial piston variable displacement pump dedicated to work equipment. The upper carriage features a monoblock swivel boom measuring 1,850 mm with articulation of 65 degrees to the left and 50 degrees to the right, paired with a long dipper stick of 1,160 mm. Maximum upper carriage slewing speed is 9.8 rpm. The internally toothed slewing ring is fitted with an automatic swivel brake and a hydraulically releasable spring-loaded parking brake for secure holding on slopes.
The undercarriage is hydraulically adjustable for ground clearance and grading. The machine is equipped with a quick coupler for rapid tool changes and includes a dedicated auxiliary hydraulic circuit (AUX1) with two-way proportional control, suitable for attaching a hammer or tilt bucket. Both the main boom and side-articulated boom can be operated independently via the left and right joysticks with slider controls, and all working hydraulics are electro-hydraulically proportional for precise, responsive digging and material handling. Internal stock number 00129.
