The Cat® 309 CR Mini Excavator delivers maximum power and performance in a mini size to help you work in a wide range of applications.
| Note | The 309 CR specifications are based on a machine configured with a Long (L) Undercarriage. |
| Note (1) | *Minimum Weight is based on steel tracks, no counterweight, operator, full fuel tank, standard stick, blade and no bucket. |
| Note (2) | **Maximum Weight is based on steel tracks with rubber pads, counterweight, operator, full fuel tank, long stick, blade and no bucket. |
| Gradeability - Maximum | 30 degrees |
| Type | Load Sensing Hydraulics with Variable Displacement Piston Pump |
| Note | Flow and pressure are not combinable. Under load, as flow rises pressure goes down. |
