The Cat 313F L GC hydraulic excavator features a Tier 4 Final engine that doesn’t require diesel exhaust fluid. It has a one-pump hydraulic system that simplifies everyday tasks such as light excavating, spreading top soil, setting utilities, and fine grading floors. It also comes equipped with unique features like a stout and stable long undercarriage, a quiet and comfortable full-size Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS) cab, and easy-to-reach service points.

The 313F L GC's 70 horsepower engine provides all the power needed to run the machine’s hydraulic system. Fuel-conscious owners have the choice of high power and economy modes to actively manage fuel consumption. Also, an engine idle shutdown feature stops the engine after a pre-set idling interval, which helps reduce fuel consumption and emissions and also extends service intervals and contributes to higher resale value by eliminating idle time from the hour meter.

The machine’s new hydraulic system delivers reliable power for digging, lifting, and attachment use. The load-sense pump and main control valve calculate exact work demands—all to deliver the stick and bucket force needed to get work done with low owning and operating costs.
