Cat 303.5E2 Walk Around and Review 

i’ve run takeuchi case cat john deere bobcat yanmar by far my favorite was cat and i also liked bobcat and case but john deere is second to cat kubota just sucked i tried several i like the cat machines for skid-steer to they have awesome service parts availability and for my backhoes they have parts on hand for something 25years old cat is awsome in my book you made great choice i like the 303 we have what got me on a 303 is i rented one it had 8000 hours and no issues ran awsome

How long did you wait for the machine to come in after ordering?

I wonder if the cab option is worth it if you are on somewhat of a budget?

What year machine is this?

so, we got a mini 304e2 and I was wonder were you buy a set of forks for them

great review, I am going to buy one tomorrow. kinda wonder how they compare to a 304. we like the size and ease to transport in a dump trailer. we are just looking to dig for now. 645 hr like yours for 39k

full yard walk around of everything? id love to see it all

Would you ever have the need for an additional counter weight? Make it more stable for your lifts? Did you think of a smaller machine since you do not dig that deep with your projects? Hanks for postings

Shackle, you meant to say. Yeah, it's a nice little machine. The thumb makes these little minis very useful and productive.

How do you like the grading bucket I just bought the exact same machine.

btw, there's one big advantage to the canopy versus the enclosed cab: you can easily remove the canopy to get under low-clearance areas to work in. Who knows, you might get a job someday that requires it.

How much hp does it have

Can you do a review/walk around of the skid steer

How much did it cost?

How do you move a half pallet of pavers with the excavator?

can u do a vid of you doing a job with the 303.5E

Dose it have the beeping noise on it

This tractor is absolutely awful. The best thing about it is the floating blade. But that alone doesn't justify to buy. The company I work for went from 35G and 50G john deer's to these. This excavator has no back fill power. No side swipe power whatsoever. It's all the tractor can do just to turn around. Controls are very laggy compared to john deer. Oh and by the way ever single one we have gotten has leaked hydrolic fluid from where ever it can leak from. Less than 10 hours of use. Do what you want, but many people including myself to not suggest you get this. Have a blessed day
