2017 Caterpillar 305.5

Designed for precision work in confined spaces, this 2017 Caterpillar 305.5 mini excavator delivers exceptional operator control and all-day comfort. Weighing 5,480 kg with a 0.18 m³ bucket capacity, it combines compact dimensions with serious digging capability—38.7 kN bucket force and 26 kN arm force ensure productive performance across demolition, landscaping, and utility projects.

Powered by a reliable Mitsubishi M4M0 engine producing 56 hp, this machine offers smooth hydraulic response and intuitive joystick controls that reduce operator fatigue during extended shifts. The spacious cabin provides excellent 360-degree visibility, allowing operators to monitor surroundings and attachments with confidence. Strategically positioned windows and minimal blind spots enhance safety on crowded job sites.

Stability remains a core strength—the wide track stance and low center of gravity maintain balance during lifting and digging operations on uneven terrain. Currently located in Yichun, Jiangxi, this joint venture-manufactured unit represents proven Caterpillar engineering with straightforward maintenance access and durable construction built for demanding work environments.
