Welded to EN ISO 3834-2. Agree it as a standing term of supply and the EN 10204 3.1 certificate ships with every attachment. You also get the CE declaration of conformity for every quick coupler and hydraulic attachment. See the certificates.

Before you order: check the interface

The weight class of the Caterpillar 303.5 CR sizes the attachment. It does not tell you the pin diameter, the pin spacing or the stick width, and those decide whether an attachment fits. Measure them on the machine, or send us the measurements of the bucket it runs today.

On a mini excavator the weight of the attachment counts for more than on a larger machine, because every kilogram of bucket is taken from lift capacity and stability. A narrow trenching bucket and a wide grading bucket are the usual pair, and many machines run a small quick coupler to change between them.

Quick coupler brackets at this weight

In our model tables, the attachments listed for the Caterpillar 303.5 CR at its weight are built with these brackets. Each code opens the models that list it.

Brackets we build attachments with in this weight range. Not a confirmed fit.

  1. Measure the diameter of both bucket pins.
  2. Measure the distance between the pin centres.
  3. Measure the inside width between the stick ears.
  4. If the machine runs a quick coupler, note its make and type.

What the 303.5 CR figures mean for its attachments

  • Its auxiliary circuit is rated at 70 l/min and 245 bar. A breaker, auger, tilt rotator or other hydraulic tool states the oil flow it needs, so choose one whose range includes this figure.
  • The main pump delivers up to 100 l/min at 245 bar. That is the pump output of the whole machine, not the flow an attachment gets.
  • Caterpillar lists this quick coupler for it: Dual Lock Manual Coupler. The bracket on every attachment has to match the coupler.
  • It digs down to 3,110 mm. That is the deepest trench it can open.
  • Its maximum reach is 5,380 mm.
  • It dumps at up to 3,600 mm, so a truck or skip side has to sit below that height.
  • Caterpillar offers arms from 1,260 to 1,560 mm. A longer arm reaches further, a shorter one handles a heavier bucket.
  • Bucket breakout force is 33 kN. That is the force a bucket or ripper works with at the tooth.
  • Caterpillar gives a lifting capacity of 1,676 kg. Check a heavy grab or hammer, plus its load, against the full load chart.
  • For transport it measures 4,800 x 1,780 x 2,480 mm (length, width, height).
