• The new integrated vehicle health management system alerts the operator with service guidance and parts needed to enhance uptime.
• Enhance visibility to make service work easier and safer with optional inspection lighting.
• Make the jobsite safer with an optional swing alarm.

Fuel Saving Performance Matched to the Job

• Use up to 10 percent less fuel than the 313F GC to keep you moving and productive on the jobsite.
• Easily work on slopes and move around the jobsite with 10 percent more swing torque.
• The advanced hydraulic system provides the optimum balance of power and efficiency while providing the control needed for precise digging requirements.
• Smart mode meets your power needs by automatically matching engine and hydraulic power to digging conditions.
• Get higher production in demanding applications, easier penetration into piles, and faster cycle times with Cat® Advansys™ bucket tips. Quickly change tips with a simple lug wrench instead of a hammer or special tool, improving safety and uptime.
• Auxiliary hydraulic options give you the versatility to use a wide range of Cat attachments.
• The Cat C3.6 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards.
• Product Link™ comes standard so you can remotely monitor machine health, location, hours, and fuel consumption on-demand through the VisionLink® online interface.

Lower Maintenance Costs

• Expect up to 25 percent less maintenances costs than the 313F GC.
• Quickly check and service your machine with all daily maintenance points accessible from ground level.
• Check the engine oil level quickly and safely from the ground. Fill and check engine oil on top of the machine with a conveniently located second dipstick.
• The new hydraulic oil filter provides improved filtration performance, anti-drain valves to keep oil clean when the filter is replaced, and longer life with a 3,000-hour replacement interval – 50 percent longer than previous filter designs.
• The engine does not require diesel exhaust fluid (DEF).
• Track your machine’s filter life and maintenance intervals on the in-cab monitor.
• Boost productivity with proactive service reminders. The new Integrated Vehicle Health Management system alerts the operator with step-by-step service guidance along with parts needed so you don't experience any unnecessary downtime.
• S·O·SSM ports are located at ground level, simplifying maintenance and allowing for quick, easy extraction of fluid samples for analysis. yeah

Work in Comfort in the All-New Cab

• Increase operator productivity with an all-new, larger cab.
• The cab has a wide seat that adjusts for operators of all sizes.
• Advanced viscous mounts reduce cab vibration.
• Control the excavator comfortably with easy-to-reach controls all located in front of you.
• Stow your gear with plenty of in-cab storage beneath and behind the seat, overhead, and in the consoles.
• Use the standard radio’s USB ports and Bluetooth® technology to connect personal devices and make hands-free calls.

Reliable, Whatever the Environment

• Don’t let the temperature stop you from working. The 313 GC has a standard high-ambient temperature capability of 52° C (125° F) without de-rate and cold-start capability of -18° C (0° F).
• Auto warm-up speeds up hydraulic oil warming in cold temperatures and helps prolong the life of components.
• Grease sealed between track pins and bushings reduces travel noise and prevents debris from entering to increase undercarriage life.
• The track guiding guard helps keep the excavator track aligned when traveling and working on slopes.
• The sloped track frame prevents mud and debris accumulation, helping reduce the risk of track damage.

Simple to Operate

• Start the engine with the push of a button, a Bluetooth key fob, or the unique Operator ID function.
• Program your preferred power mode and joystick settings using your operator ID. The excavator will automatically remember your selections.
• Navigate quickly on the standard high-resolution touchscreen monitor or with the aid of the jog dial control.
• The Cat PL161 Attachment Locator is a Bluetooth device that makes finding your attachments and other gear quick and easy. The Cat App on your phone will locate the device automatically.
• Not sure how a function works or how to maintain your machine? Simply access the operator’s manual through the touch screen monitor.

Safety

• Access all daily maintenance points from ground level – no need for you to climb on top of the machine.
• The standard ROPS cab meets ISO 12117-2:2008 requirements.
• The standard hydraulic lockout lever isolates all hydraulic and travel functions in the lowered position.
• A ground-level shut-off switch stops all fuel to the engine and shuts down the machine when activated.
• A rearview and right-side-view camera are standard, increasing safety and visibility.
• New service platform design provides easy, safe, and quick access to the upper service platform. Prevent slipping with the anti-skid punch plate on the platform steps.
• Optional boom and stick lowering check valves prevent reverse flow, keeping your front linkage securely in place should the hydraulic system unexpectedly lose power.
• Brightly colored seatbelts allow easy recognition of properly utilized safety restraints.
• Enhance jobsite safety. Add a swing alarm to alert people when you're rotating from trench to stockpile and back again.
• Make service work easier and safer with optional inspection lighting. With the flip of a switch, lights will illuminate the engine, pump, battery, and radiator compartments to enhance visibility.
