• 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. A cup holder, bottle holder, and coat hook are also provided.
    
• Bluetooth® integrated radio allows for seamless mobile phone connection to listen to music, podcasts, and hands-free calling.
    
• Easily adjust the climate control system using the touchscreen monitor or jog dial.

Safety

    
• Access daily maintenance points from ground level.
    
• Keep your excavator secure with Operator ID. Use your PIN code on the monitor to enable the pushbutton starting feature.
    
• The standard ROPS cab meets ISO 12117-2:2008 requirements.
    
• Enlarged windows and improved machine layout increase visibility from the seat of the cab compared to the M315F. Rearview and side-view cameras are standard.
    
• The service platform design provides easy, safe, and quick access to the upper service platform; the service platform steps use anti-skid punch plate to prevent slipping
    
• The standard hydraulic lockout lever isolates all hydraulic and travel functions in the lowered position.
    
• Swing lock prevents front linkage from moving as you travel.
    
• Ground-level shutoff switch stops all fuel to the engine when activated and shuts down the machine.
    
• 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.

Lower Maintenance Costs

    
• 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.
    
• Save up to 10 percent in maintenance parts with the longer lasting filters.
    
• Track your machine's filter life and maintenance intervals on the in-cab monitor.
    
• Two levels of fuel filtration protect the engine from fuel contamination.
    
• The 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.
    
• Scheduled Oil Sampling (S·O·SSM) ports are located at ground level, simplifying maintenance, and allowing for quick, easy extraction of fluid samples for analysis.
    
• Boost productivity with proactive service reminders. The 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.

Simple to Operate

    
• Start the engine with the push-to-start button, a Bluetooth key fob, or the unique Operator ID function.
    
• Program your power mode and joystick preferences using Operator ID; the excavator remembers your settings each time you go to work.
    
• Navigate quickly on the standard high-resolution 254 mm (10 inch) touchscreen monitor or with the aid of the jog dial control.
    
• The auto axle lock presses the pedal for you to reduce your overall number of actions. The machine automatically detects when the service brake and axle need to be locked or unlocked. It releases automatically when you press the travel pedal.
    
• Tiltrotator attachments--ours or other brands--work seamlessly with Cat 2D Grade, Assist, Payload, and E-Fence . With no additional hardware required, all you have to do is simply select "Third Party Tiltrotator System Installation" in the monitor, do the calibration, and get to work.
    
• Cat continues to improve user interface functionality for operators of all skill levels. The touchscreen monitor is an easy-to-use operating tool that presents the jobsite dashboard with an intuitive format. Productivity applications are displayed in grid-view to read on-the-go, and touchscreen navigation is programmed to make sure job performance continues without any hold ups.

Boost Efficiency and Productivity with Integrated Cat Technologies

    
• Boost productivity versus traditional grading with optional Cat Grade with 2D system.
    
• Optional Cat Payload helps you achieve precise load targets to improve your operating efficiency. Pick up a load of material--with a bucket and thumb combination or grapple and clamshell attachments--and get a real-time weight estimate without swinging.
    
• Combine Payload with VisionLink® and remotely manage your production targets or take payload data with you. 
    
• Upgrade to our dual antenna GNSS for maximum grading efficiency. The system lets you create and edit designs on the touchscreen monitor while you’re on the job, or you can have the plan design sent to the excavator to make your work easier. Plus, you get added benefits of avoidance zones, cut and fill mapping, lane guidance, and augmented reality along with advanced positioning capability.
    
• Optional Grade Assist helps you stay on grade – simply and effortlessly – with single-lever digging. Set your desired bucket angle and let Bucket Assist automatically maintain the angle in sloping, leveling, fine grading, and trenching applications
    
• Optional 2D E-fence is integrated right out of the factory to prevent the excavator from moving outside operator defined set points.
    
• All Cat Grade systems are compatible with radios and base stations from Trimble, Topcon, and Leica. Already invested in a grade infrastructure? You can install grade systems from Trimble, Topcon, and Leica onto the machine.
