High Performance

High Performance

        
  • Use less fuel than the 313F GC to keep you moving and productive on the jobsite.
  •     
  • Easily work on slopes and move around the jobsite with excellent swing torque.
  •     
  • The advanced hydraulic system provides the optimum balance of power and efficiency while providing the control needed for precise digging requirements.
  •     
  • Smart mode meets your power needs by automatically matching engine and hydraulic power to digging conditions.
  •     
  • Get higher production in demanding applications, easier penetration into piles, and faster cycle times with Cat® Advansys™ bucket tips. Quickly change tips with a simple lug wrench instead of a hammer or special tool, improving safety and uptime.
  •     
  • Auxiliary hydraulic options give you the versatility to use a wide range of Cat attachments.
  •     
  • The Cat C3.6 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards.
  •     
  • VisionLink® provides actionable data insights for all assets - regardless of fleet size or equipment manufacturer.* Review equipment data from your desktop or mobile device to maximize uptime and optimize assets. Dashboards provide information such as hours, miles, location, idle time, and fuel utilization. Make informed decisions that lower costs, simplify maintenance, and improve safety and security on your jobsite.

*Data field availability can vary by equipment manufacturer.
Low Maintenance Costs

Low Maintenance Costs

        
  • Expect lower maintenance costs compared to the 313F GC.
  •     
  • Quickly check and service your machine with all daily maintenance points accessible from ground level.
  •     
  • Check the engine oil level quickly and safely from the ground. Fill and check engine oil on top of the machine with a conveniently located second dipstick.
  •     
  • The hydraulic oil filter provides improved filtration performance, anti-drain valves to keep oil clean when the filter is replaced, and longer life with a 3,000-hour replacement interval – 50% longer than previous filter designs.
  •     
  • The engine does not require diesel exhaust fluid (DEF).
  •     
  • Track your machine’s filter life and maintenance intervals on the in-cab monitor.
  •     
  • Boost productivity with proactive service reminders. The Integrated Vehicle Health Management system alerts the operator with step-by-step service guidance along with parts needed so you don't experience any unnecessary downtime.
  •     
  • S·O·SSM ports are located at ground level, simplifying maintenance and allowing for quick, easy extraction of fluid samples for analysis.
Work in Comfort

Work in Comfort

        
  • Increase operator productivity with a large, comfortable cab.
  •     
  • The cab has a wide seat that adjusts for operators of all sizes.
  •     
  • Get in and out of the cab easier using the tip-up left console.
  •     
  • Advanced viscous mounts reduce cab vibration.
  •     
  • Control the excavator comfortably with easy-to-reach controls, all located in front of you.
  •     
  • Stow your gear with plenty of in-cab storage beneath and behind the seat, overhead, and in the consoles. A cup holder, document holder, and coat hook are also provided.
  •     
  • Use the standard radio’s USB ports and Bluetooth® technology to connect personal devices and make hands-free calls.
Reliable, Whatever the Environment

Reliable, Whatever the Environment

        
  • Don’t let the temperature stop you from working. The 313 GC has a standard high-ambient temperature capability of 52° C (125° F) without de-rate and cold-start capability of -18° C (0° F).
  •     
  • Auto warm-up speeds up hydraulic oil warming in cold temperatures and helps prolong the life of components.
  •     
  • Grease sealed between track pins and bushings reduces travel noise and prevents debris from entering to increase undercarriage life.
  •     
  • The track guiding guard helps keep the excavator track aligned when traveling and working on slopes.
  •     
  • The sloped track frame prevents mud and debris accumulation, helping reduce the risk of track damage.
Simple to Operate

Simple to Operate

        
  • Start the engine with the push of a button, a Bluetooth key fob, or the unique Operator ID function.
  •     
  • Program your preferred power mode and joystick settings using your operator ID. The excavator will automatically remember your selections.
  •     
  • Navigate quickly on the standard high-resolution touchscreen monitor or with the aid of the jog dial control.
  •     
  • Continuously improved user interface allows for intuitive navigation, minimizing performance interruption with the easy-to-use touchscreen menu.
  •     
  • Use the in-monitor QR code to learn about machine and technology features through a full suite of “how-to” videos.
  •     
  • The Cat® PL161 attachment locator allows you to track attachments across all worksites, reduce the number of lost attachments, and plan for attachment maintenance and replacement.
  •     
  • Save more time and energy with the available work tool recognition feature. A simple shake of the attached tool confirms its identity and ensures all the attachment settings (pressure, flow, and dimensions) are correct so you can work quickly and efficiently.
  •     
  • Not sure how a function works or how to maintain your machine? Simply access the operator’s manual through the touchscreen monitor.
