------ WARNING! ------

Failure to comply to the rated load can cause possible personal injury or property damage. This includes the risk of unintended boom lowering. Review the rated load of a particular work tool before performing any operation. Make adjustments to the rated load as necessary for non-standard configurations.


There may be local regulations and/or government regulations that govern the use of excavators which lift heavy objects. Obey all local and government regulations.

Lifting capacities should be used as a guide. Work tools, uneven ground conditions, soft ground conditions, or poor ground conditions have effects on lifting capacities. The operator is responsible for being aware of these effects.

The lifting capacities are defined by "ISO 10567 2007". The lifting capacities are defined as the lower value of 75% of the static tipping capacity or 87% of the hydraulic lift capacity.

Note: Lifting capacities are based on a standard machine with the following conditions:

  • Lift point: Stick nose without bucket

  • Lubricants full

  • Fuel tank full

  • Steel track

  • Complete cab with a 75 kg (165 lb) operator

Lifting capacities will vary with different work tools and attachments. The weight of a work tool attachment must be subtracted from the lift capacity. Consult your Cat dealer regarding the lifting capacities for specific work tools and attachments.

This machine may be equipped with various sticks. Lifting capacities may vary between the different sticks. Measure the distance on the stick between the boom hinge pin and the work tool hinge pin. This distance will inform you of the size of the stick that is equipped on the machine.

Use the lifting eye that is provided on the stick nose to lift objects. When the lifting eye is used, the connection must be made with a sling or shackle.

Note: In European countries, regulations require a load sensing indicator and a boom and stick lowering control device if more than 1000 kg (2200 lb) is lifted during object handling applications. Regulations also require a load sensing indicator and a boom lowering control device if a moment that is greater than 40000 N·m (29500 lb ft) is created during object handling applications. If the machine is not equipped with these devices, even if the hydraulic lift capacity is capable, do not exceed a load of 1000 kg (2200 lb). Do not exceed a moment that is greater than 40000 N·m (29500 lb ft) in European object handling applications.
