[. . . ] With the auxiliary hydraulics on the right hand joystick, just hold the roller switch at the desired flow rate and direction for 2. 5 seconds and the machine will maintain that flow rate until it is turned off. Maintain hydraulic flow to your tools at any flow and in any direction with the simple push of a button Pattern Changer Change the operating pattern between excavator and backhoe with a simple press of a button from the comfort of the cab. Exclusive push button pattern changer is safe and easy Maintenance and Performance Information Easily keep track of various maintenance and performance parameters of your machine. Reset the maintenance intervals and ensure the machine is receiving proper care maximizing the life of the machine 7 Compact Radius, Zero Tail Swing Work in the tightest areas Compact Radius The compact radius design gives greater machine versatility and the capability to work within confined areas. This allows the operator to concentrate on the work being done without having to worry about damaging the back of the machine or other job site obstacles. On the 305E CR and the 305. 5E CR, the upper body stays within 140 mm (5. 5 in) of the undercarriage. Zero Tail Swing New to the E Series, the 303. 5E CR and the 304E CR models feature a zero tail swing design. On these models, the radius of the upper body stays entirely within the width of the undercarriage. 8 Undercarriage Stability and Durability Rubber Track – The standard rubber track lets you work on multiple surfaces such as grass, pavement or stone without damaging the surface or machine. Steel Track Option – Optional steel track is available for harsh conditions such as demolition. The extra weight of the steel tracks generally provides better stability when digging over the side of the machine. (Not available on the 304E CR. ) Rubber Pads – Optional rubber pads can be attached to the steel track to prevent damage to paved surfaces and minimize noise and vibration during travel with the steel track system. This option provides the maximum overall stability. 9 Dozer Blade Maximize your productivity Simple Dozer Control with Float Function The dozer function is pilot controlled from inside the cab, providing smooth, proportional operation. The standard float function is enabled by pushing the lever fully forward into the detent position. Cleanup and backfilling is easier since the operator does not have to adjust the blade height during travel. Excellent Blade Visibility Visibility to the blade is excellent in any position, allowing the blade to be positioned behind the operator and away from the front linkage for better access when back dragging and finishing in tight areas. Angle Blade Option Increase machine versatility with the Cat angle dozer blade. Built for strength and durability, the hydraulic angle blade features a hardened steel wear edge and good protection to cylinders and hydraulic lines.
