The Caterpillar 301.5 is a market leader in the 1.5-tonne class, offering industry-first features that maximize operator comfort and jobsite productivity. Its standout “Stick Steer” system allows the operator to switch from traditional lever controls to joystick steering at the touch of a button, making travel and blade operation far more intuitive. This compact machine is designed to work in the tightest spaces while delivering the power and performance of a larger unit.

With an expandable undercarriage that retracts to 990mm, the 301.5 can fit through narrow gates and side passages, then expand to 1300mm for maximum stability while digging. The machine also features a unique tilt-up canopy, providing unparalleled access to major hydraulic components for fast and easy maintenance. Whether for residential landscaping or utility trenching, the Cat 301.5 is built for the high demands of Australian jobsites.
