Versatility

A wide variety of optional factory-installed attachments to enhance performance and improve job site management.

Single-Function Auxiliary Hydraulics.

This circuit utilizes one-way flow action with two pumps and can run tools such as hammers and vibratory plate compactors.

Double-Function Auxiliary Hydraulics.

This circuit utilizes two-way flow and one pump and is capable of running tools such as a thumb, tilt-bucket or non-rotating grapples or shears.

Tool Control System. This system offers the most flexibility and versatility of the auxiliary options offered. This system is available in two configurations, as a stand-alone system or with a medium pressure circuit and third pump.

This system is capable of running either one-way or two-way tools and one one-pump or two pump tools. The additional of the medium pressure circuit allows use of tools that rotate such as grapples, shears or multi- processors. Up to 10 different tool settings can be pre-programmed

and selected through the monitor.

Machine Security. An optional Machine Security System is available from the factory on the 325D L. This system controls when the machine can be operated and utilizes specific keys

to prevent unauthorized machine use, a significant theft deterrent.

Product Link. The machine is pre-wired to accept Product Link systems to be installed in the field. Product Link is also available as a factory installed attachment. Product Link can assist with Fleet Management that will keep track of hours, location, security and product health.

Pin Grabber Plus Hydraulic Pin Grabber

Increases versatility of the excavator by allowing the machine to pick up a wide variety of work tools without leaving the cab.

Auxiliary Hydraulics Options. There are four different options that can be factory installed to meet the various demands for hydra-mechanical tools. Single-Function,Double-Function, Tool Control System without Medium Pressure and Tool Control System with Medium Pressure are available as a factory installed option.

Sorting Grapple

Caterpillar Grapples replace the bucket on Caterpillar Excavators, converting them to the ideal machine for handling loose material, sorting trash and demolition site cleanup. An array of styles and sizes are available to match the task at hand.
