MINI BUT MIGHTY
The SANY SY35 and Cat 303 both stand out in their class size. These 8,000-lb beasts are some of the most versatile and widely used mini excavators on the market today. For many owners and operators alike, this class size provides excellent power and maneuverability while still offering users a more compact size to fit into tighter spaces.
Due to their power-to-weight ratio, mini excavators provide users with plenty of capability for various tasks, including landscaping, demolition, utility work, road repairs, and more. Their wide range of functions makes these small excavators ideal for any project or job site.
The SANY SY35U and CAT 303 boast impressive features that keep the customer in mind whether you are digging or driving to your next site. Tie-downs built right into the frame, 12” rubber tracks, and front-facing dozer blades are just the beginning of what makes these minis all-mighty.
Performance side by side
The SANY SY35U excavator is renowned for its strength, power, and overall reliability. It features two-way auxiliary hydraulics, load sensing, and pre-plumbed coupler lines with up to 10’2” deep of powerful digging forces all in an ergonomic design. With the latest innovations in safety technology and user-friendly controls, this excavator will make any job easier.
Standard safety features like LED front lights, hydraulic lockouts to prevent accidental movement, and rear-view mirrors are included in the base price of this powerful mini machine. The zero-tail swing makes the SY35U ideal for tight spaces, road work, and more. With over 17’ of reach and 8,834lbf of breakout force, it's no wonder this mini has become a favorite on job sites nationwide. With a tagline that stands true, this “Fully Loaded” machine is setting the standard for the heavy equipment industry with its owners and operators in mind.
The Cat 303CR also packs a powerful punch when stacked up with the SY35. While load-sensing hydraulics and two-way flow come stock, matching the SY35, the 303 offers optional plumbing for couplers down the full stick. Featuring a dig depth of 8' 8" and a powerful 6,385lbf of bucket breakout force, this machine stays moving on the job site. The Caterpillar 303 mini excavator has a tilt-up cab, hydraulic lockout, and a wide range of optional safety add-ons such as lights and mirrors. The tilt-up cab gives operators easy access to its engine compartment, making it easier to stay on track with maintenance and job site operations. By combining these features in a compact package, the CAT 303 offers a customizable machine suited especially to you. With all these features in mind, it is easy to see why both excavators offer superb performance for those tackling serious construction jobs.
Operator Comforts
Prioritizing operator comfort, the standard features on the SY35U make it an unbeatable choice for those looking to maximize productivity without maximizing their budget. Bluetooth capabilities allow operators to stay connected on the job while heat and air conditioning provide the optimal work environment on closed cab models. Easy access to the SY35U's pattern change control ensures precise maneuvering on any jobsite, regardless of operator preference. With these features in place, the SY35U is guaranteed to give its operators a customizable and comfortable experience every time.
The CAT 303 offers a unique feature in its easy-to-use stick steer mode that allows operators to choose how they would like to control their machine.
