About this equipment

The 2005 Caterpillar 330CL is a robust excavator, powered by a CAT C9 diesel engine. It features a 24" bucket, hydraulic coupler, and an enclosed cab with A/C, heat, and radio for operator comfort. Despite its 10,015 hours of operation, the machine remains in good condition, with a functioning transmission and hydraulic system. The undercarriage and tracks are also in good shape, with about 50% life remaining when inspected. The inspection reported a few signs of wear, including minor engine oil leaks, engine smoke under throttle, a malfunctioning horn, and some cosmetic damage to the body and cabin. Listing content, notes, photos, and hours displayed were obtained in February 2024 and can be confirmed on request.
