• Daily maintenance at ground level, longer filter lifespan, and extended and synchronized service interals help reduce maintenance costs.
    
• The electrohydraulic system eliminates the need for pilot lines and filter.
    
• The air intake filter with pre-cleaner has a high dust holding capacity.  
    
• The final drive and swing drive oil service life is 500 hours.  
    
• Fuel filters are synchronized to be changed at 1,000 hours - keeping your machine on the job for longer periods of time.
    
• The latest hydraulic oil filter provides high-quality filtration performance. It features anti-drain valves to keep oil clean when the filter is replaced, and the 3,000-hour extended replacement interval offers efficiency and convenience.
    
• Grease sealed between track pins and bushings reduces travel noise and prevents debris from entering to help increase undercarriage life.
    
• Auto warm up speeds up hydraulic oil warming in cold temperatures and helps prolong the life of components.
    
• Optional Advansys™ bucket tips* increase penetration and improve cycle times. Tip changes can be done quickly with a simple lug wrench instead of a hammer or special tool, improving safety and uptime.
    
• S·O·S^SM oil sampling ports are on ground level, simplifying maintenance and allowing for quick, easy extraction of fluid samples for analysis.
    
• Using Cat® genuine oil and filters and doing typical S∙O∙S monitoring will extend the current service interval, giving you more uptime.  

    
• The excavator uses less fuel than the 320D2 L in similar applications.
    
• Match the excavator to the job with a choice of two modes: Power and Smart. Power mode provides full-time maximum output. Smart mode automatically matches engine and hydraulic power to digging conditions to help conserve fuel without impacting production.
    
• 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.
    
• Save fuel with Automatic Engine Control (AEC). It reduces engine speed when the machine is not under load to minimize fuel consumption.

    
• The Cat C4.4 engine and electrohydraulic system work in sync to help you move plenty of material while using less fuel.
    
• The Cat C7.1 engine provides another durable engine solution that balances performance, affordability, reliability, and ease of maintenance. It meets the needs of operators looking for an efficient, easy-to-maintain return on investment that performs well in both standard excavation and more demanding environments.  
    
• Two levels of fuel filtration protect the engine from contaminated diesel fuel.
    
• Work up to 4500 m (14,760 ft) above sea level with engine power derate above 3000 m (9,840 ft).
    
• Standard high-ambient temperature capability is 52°C (125°F) with cold start capability at -25°C (-13°F).
    
• A versatile machine that performs well in bucket and hammer applications.
    
• Reliable and durable and built on classic, proven components.
    
• Booms and sticks are robotically welded and checked ultrasonically to ensure maximum durability.
    
• The latest 323 GX can be equipped with a long undercarriage* offering enhanced stability, especially when hammering on inclines or uneven terrain. 
    
• The optional Heavy Duty (HD) boom and stick* are designed to withstand extreme conditions and endure the stresses and forces generated during high impact hammering or other demanding operations.
    
• The optional Super Long Reach* extends the machine's reach and working capacity, making it highly effective for irrigation development, waterway maintenance, and prawn farming.
    
• Cat undercarriage is built strong to absorb jobsite stresses for enhanced performance and durability.
    
• Grease sealed between track pins and bushings reduces travel noise and prevents debris from entering to increase undercarriage life.  
    
• General duty buckets are designed for fast material discharge and cleaning.
    
• The center track guiding guard helps align the excavator track when traveling and working on slopes.  
    
• Fast cycle times give you excellent productivity.
    
• A hammer-ready valve is standard for added versatility.

    
• The cab has a wide seat that adjusts to suit individual operator preferences.
    
• Standard automatic climate control helps keep you comfortable all shift long.
    
• Excellent work site visibility from the cab enhances productivity and safety.
