This Caterpillar 306E2 is a used crawler excavator — commonly referred to as a digger — available for $13,000. Crawler excavators are earthmoving machines designed for digging, trenching, material handling, and demolition work across construction, civil engineering, landscaping, and utility industries. Caterpillar is one of the world's best-known heavy equipment manufacturers, producing construction and mining machinery trusted across a wide range of industries globally.
This 2020 machine carries an operating weight of 5,795 kg, placing it in the compact excavator class and making it well suited to sites where a smaller footprint and easier transport are priorities. The bucket capacity is 0.22 m³, appropriate for precise digging and loading tasks in tight or confined working environments.
Digging performance is defined by two key figures: an arm digging force of 26 kN and a maximum digging force of 48.2 kN. The arm digging force reflects the pulling strength generated through the stick cylinder, while the maximum digging force is produced at the bucket cylinder and represents the peak breakout force the machine can deliver into hard or compacted ground.
