Increased horsepower, improved controllability, and a comfortable operator station
help make the Cat 318D L Series 2 hydraulic excavator an industry-leading performer.
Easy to operate with unmatched versatility, the 318D L Series 2 will help increase your
productivity and lower your operating costs.

Operator Station
New levels of comfort, visibility and operation.
Operator Station
The ergonomically designed operator station is spacious,
quiet, and comfortable, assuring high productivity during
a long work day. All switches are located on the right-hand
console for convenient access.
Monitor
The monitor is a full-color Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that
can be adjusted to minimize sun glare and has the capability
of displaying information in 27 languages.
Joystick Control
Low-effort pilot-operated joystick controls are designed
to match the operator’s natural wrist and arm position
for maximum comfort and minimum fatigue.
Seat
The standard suspension seat provides a variety of adjustments
to suit the operator’s size and weight including fore/aft height
and weight. Wide adjustable armrests and a seat belt are Cab Mounts
also included. The cab shell is attached to the frame with viscous rubber
cab mounts, which dampen vibrations and sound levels
Console while enhancing operator comfort.
The consoles feature a simple functional design to reduce
operator fatigue, ease of switch operation, and excellent Windows
visibility. Both consoles have attached armrests with To maximize visibility, all glass is affixed directly to the cab,
tilting adjustments. eliminating window frames. The upper front windshield opens,
closes, and stores on the roof above the operator with a
Cab Exterior one-touch action release system.
The cab shell features thick steel tubing along the bottom
perimeter of the cab, improving resistance to fatigue Wipers
and vibration. Pillar-mounted wipers increase the operator’s viewing area
and offer continuous and intermittent modes.

Engine
Delivering the most work per liter/gallon
of fuel consumed.
The Cat C4.4 ACERT electronically controlled engine has been designed to meet Brazil MAR-1 emission standards, equivalent to
Tier 3/Stage IIIA. This engine incorporates a time-proven mechanical governor and a low-pressure fuel injection system that are
major contributors to the improvement of fuel system robustness, high fuel efficiency, and ease of troubleshooting. High filtration
performance from the primary filter incorporating a water separator and a secondary filter also help to improve fuel filtration
system reliability.
Economy Mode
Available as a standard feature, economy mode allows you to balance the demands of performance and fuel economy while
maintaining the breakout forces and lift capacity enjoyed at standard power.
5
Hydraulics
High efficiency and performance with low effort
and precise control.
Outstanding Performance
The 318D L Series 2 hydraulic system is designed for high efficiency and performance. The new compact design utilizes shorter tubes
and lines to reduce friction and pressure drops, resulting in a more efficient use of power.
• Hydraulic snubbers at the rod end of the boom cylinders and both ends of the stick cylinders cushion shock, reduce sound,
and increase cylinder life.
• A hydraulic cross-sensing system uses two hydraulic pumps under all operating conditions, improving productivity with faster
implement speeds and quicker, stronger pivot turns.
Easy Operation
Operators do not need to learn different modes. An automatic boom and swing priority function automatically selects the best mode
based on joystick movement.

Reach Boom
The 5.1 m (16'9") reach boom features parts made from
a new forging pattern and additional, thicker plates.
A light attached to the left side offers improved visibility
in dark and low-light conditions.
7
Work Tools
Dig, hammer, rip, and cut with confidence.
Couplers
Quick couplers allow one person to change work tools in
seconds for maximum performance and flexibility on a job site.
One machine can move rapidly from task to task, and a fleet
of similarly equipped machines can share a common work
tool inventory.
CW Dedicated Coupler
The CW quick coupler can pick up any work tool and is
equipped with a wedge-style locking system that fits the quick
coupler tight to the tool hinges. Due to the tapered wedge
design, there won’t be any play during its entire life. Also it
is interchangeable with different machine classes. The CW
is highly suitable for harsh applications such as demolition
and quarries.
8
Buckets
Cat Buckets and Cat Ground Engaging Tools (GET) are designed and matched to the machine
ensuring optimal performance and fuel consumption.
Hydraulic Kits
Caterpillar offers field-installed hydraulic kits that
are uniquely designed to integrate Cat Work Tools with
Cat excavators. Hoses and tubes are pre-made, pre-shaped,
and pre-painted to make installation quick and easy.
Work tools available vary by region. Contact your local Cat dealer
for more information about the work tools available in your region.
9
Serviceability
Simplified service and maintenance saves
time and money.
Pump Compartment
A service door on the right side of the upper structure allows
ground-level access to the pump, pilot filter, drain filter, and
the engine oil filter.
Radiator Compartment
The left service door allows easy access to the engine
radiator, oil cooler, air-to-air-aftercooler, water separator and
first and second fuel filter. A reserve tank and drain cock are
attached to the radiator for simplified maintenance.
Hydraulic Filter
The hydraulic return filter is an in-tank design with a service
life of 2,000 hours. A sensor indicates through the in-cab
monitor when the filter is plugged and needs to be replaced.
Fan Guard
The engine radiator fan is enclosed by fine wire mesh,
reducing the risk of an accident.
Anti-Skid Plate
Anti-skid plate covers top of storage box and upper structure
to prevent slipping during maintenance.
