The Caterpillar 301.7 is a highly versatile 1.7-tonne machine that provides the extra stability and reach required for more complex excavation projects. Like its smaller counterpart, it features Cat’s exclusive Stick Steer and cruise control options, significantly reducing operator fatigue during long shifts. Its compact radius design allows it to work effectively in confined spaces while maintaining impressive lifting capacities over the side.

The 301.7 is built for durability, featuring heavy-duty steel body panels and protected hydraulic lines. The undercarriage is retractable for easy access to narrow work zones and extendable for superior balance during heavy-duty digging or when using attachments like augers and breakers. It is a reliable, high-performance option for contractors who need precision and power in a towable package.
