The 2021 Caterpillar 320GC Hydraulic Excavator is a low-hour, fully operational mid-size excavator with 1,730 hours, designed for light- to medium-duty applications like digging, trenching, and material handling in construction, landscaping, or municipal projects. Powered by a 146 HP Cat C4.4 Tier 4 Final diesel engine, it features a 38.5-inch bucket, hydraulic thumb, auxiliary hydraulics, pattern changer, standard boom, 115-inch stick, Grade Assist, and a climate-controlled cab with A/C, heat, air suspension seat, AM/FM radio, LCD display, backup camera, and sunroof.
Features
Chassis and Exterior
Built on a robust X-structure lower frame, the 320GC measures 31 ft 3 in long, 10 ft 5 in wide (with 31-inch tracks), and 9 ft 8 in high, with a 12 ft 2 in track length and 14.7 ft ground clearance, offering stability and maneuverability. The 31-inch steel tracks with triple grouser pads provide excellent traction on rough terrain, supported by an eight-roller undercarriage and 4,200 kg (9,300 lb) counterweight for balance during lifting. The standard reach boom (18 ft 8 in) and 115-inch (9 ft 6 in) stick achieve a maximum digging depth of 22 ft 1 in, maximum reach of 32 ft 10 in, and maximum loading height of 21 ft 4 in. The 38.5-inch general-duty bucket (likely 1.0-1.31 yd³) with Advansys™ tips ensures efficient digging, while the hydraulic thumb enhances material handling for rocks or debris. Auxiliary hydraulics (23 GPM, 5,076 PSI) support attachments like hammers or grapples, and the hydraulic quick coupler
enables fast swaps. Work lights, travel alarm, rearview camera, and bottom guarding protect components, with a sloped track frame preventing debris buildup. The excavator has a high-ambient capability of 52°C (125°F) and cold-start capability of -32°C (-25°F), ideal for extreme conditions.
Interior Comfort
The enclosed ROPS cab (ISO 12117-2:2008 compliant) features a spacious, ergonomic design with 50% reduced vibration via viscous mounts, a heated air suspension seat, automatic climate control, AM/FM radio, Bluetooth/USB-enabled radio, LCD display (8-inch touchscreen), backup camera, and a sunroof/moonroof for enhanced visibility and comfort. The Cat Grade with 2D system with Grade Assist automates boom and bucket movements for precise grading, displaying real-time depth and slope data. The pattern changer allows switching between ISO and SAE control patterns, and joystick buttons control auxiliary functions like CB radio or beacon lights. In-cab storage includes a cup holder, document holder, bottle holder, and coat hook, with a tip-up left console for easy entry/exit. The hydraulic lockout lever and ground-level shut-off switch enhance safety, and the low noise level (est. 70 dB) reduces operator fatigue.
Operational Capabilities
The C4.4 engine delivers 146 HP with up to 20% lower fuel consumption than the 320F, using Smart mode to match power to digging conditions, supported by Economy mode for additional savings. The hydrostatic transmission with two-speed travel (2.2 MPH low, 3.4 MPH high) ensures smooth operation, with Boom Assist, Bucket Assist, and Swing Assist automating movements for grading, sloping, or truck loading, reducing effort and fuel use. Cat Grade with 2D boosts productivity by up to 45% with laser-capable indicate-only guidance, while the hydraulic thumb and auxiliary hydraulics enable versatile attachment use (e.g., thumbs, hammers). The 38.5-inch bucket with 106 kN digging force handles tough materials, and the pattern changer adapts to operator preferences. Maintenance intervals are extended (e.g., 3,000-hour hydraulic oil filter, 1,000-hour engine oil with Cat filters), reducing costs by up to 25% compared to the 320F, with ground-level access for daily checks (e.g., engine oil dipstick). VisionLink® integration allows remote monitoring of health, location, and fuel. The 1,730 hours indicate light use, and the excavator is fully operational, ready for digging, trenching, or lifting tasks.
