This is a 2025 model-year Cat 313 GC — a 13-ton class hydraulic excavator built for general construction. Low hours, full maintenance history, serviced and inspected between every rental. It comes fitted with an articulating thumb and pin grabber quick coupler, so bucket swaps take minutes, not hours. The GC Comfort cab has climate control, an 8-inch touchscreen, and rear plus right-side cameras. It’s a clean, current machine — not something pulled out of a fleet yard with 6,000 hours and a check-engine light.

Foundation excavation — Dig full basements, frost walls, and footings with 19’10” of dig depth and a thumb that handles boulders and form work.

Site prep — Strip topsoil, cut subgrade, and rough-grade building pads. 30,000 lbs of machine moves dirt efficiently.
Land clearing — Pull stumps, remove brush, and clear wooded lots. The thumb and coupler make quick work of mixed debris.
