High Performance

The C9.3B turbo diesel engine can run on biodiesel up to B20 and meets US EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V Final emissions standards with an aftertreatment system that requires no scheduled maintenance or downtime.

Match the machine to the job with three power modes - Power, Smart, and Eco. Smart mode automatically matches engine and hydraulic power to working conditions, providing maximum power when needed and reducing power when it isn't to save fuel.

The advanced electro-hydraulic system provides the optimum balance of power and efficiency while giving you the control you need.

Available SmartBoom™ lets the boom freely travel up and down without using any pump flow so operators can focus on stick and bucket work.

Valve priority puts hydraulic pressure and flow where you need it.

The variable gauge undercarriage retracts for easy transportation and expands for increased stability and lifting capacity.

Program and store your preferred power mode and joystick settings using your Operator ID. The machine will automatically remember your selections.

Take the Guesswork Out of Managing Your Equipment

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.

VisionLink® provides actionable data insights for all assets - regardless of fleet size or equipment manufacturer.* Review equipment data from your desktop or mobile device to maximize uptime and optimize assets. Dashboards provide information such as hours, miles, location, idle time, and fuel utilization. Make informed decisions that lower costs, simplify maintenance, and improve safety and security on your jobsite.

Remote Troubleshoot is a mobile application that allows your Cat dealer to perform diagnostic testing on your connected machine remotely to help ensure that issues are resolved quickly and with less downtime.

Remote Flash is a mobile application that allows you to update onboard software without a technician being present, allowing you to initiate software updates when convenient, increasing your overall operating efficiency.

* Data field availability can vary by equipment manufacturer.

Work in Comfort

The MH3050 comes equipped with a premium cab.

The wide cab seat is heated and ventilated and adjusts automatically.

Control the machine comfortably with easy-to-reach controls.

Standard automatic climate control keeps you at the right temperature all shift long.

Stow your gear with plenty of in-cab storage beneath and behind the seat, overhead, and in the consoles. A cup holder, document holder, and bottle holder are also provided.

Optional auxiliary relay powers on and turns off CB radios, beacon lights, and other attachments without taking your hands off the joysticks.

Connect to personal devices via the standard radio's USB ports and Bluetooth® technology.

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 ensure job performance continues without any hold-ups.

Reliable, Durable, and Versatile

Count on your machine to withstand wear throughout the years. Boom, sticks, and other high-stress areas are reinforced with thick multi-plate fabrications, castings, and forgings to ensure quality and reliability.

Work up to 3000 m (9,840 ft) above sea level without derating.

Don’t let the temperature stop you from working. The material handler has a standard high-ambient temperature capability of 52°C (125°F) and cold start capability of -32°C (-25°F).

Auto warm up speeds up hydraulic oil warming in cold temperatures and helps prolong the life of components.

Standard autolube simplifies maintenance by automatically keeping the machine greased from the swing bearing and cab riser to the stick end.

Match your machine to your application. Multiple configurations allow you to customize your machine to your needs.

Equip your MH3050 with an optional 25 kW generator for magnet operation. Generator controls are fully integrated into the cab monitor.

Expand your work capabilities with attachments for a variety of applications.

Maintenance

Track your machine's filter life and maintenance intervals via the in-cab monitor.

Using Cat genuine oil and filters and doing your typical S·O·S^SM monitoring will double the current service interval to 1,000 hours, giving you greater uptime to do more work.

Expect the latest air intake filter with pre-cleaner to last up to 1,000 hours – a 100% increase over the previous filter.

The latest 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% longer than previous filter designs.

High-efficiency cooling fans run only when needed; you can program intervals so they automatically reverse to keep cores clean without interrupting your work.

Boost productivity with proactive service reminders. The integrated vehicle health management system alerts the operator with step-by-step service guidance and the parts needed so you don't experience unnecessary downtime.

Safety

Cab Avoidance helps you avoid contact between your worktool and the cab.

Standard 2D E-Fence prevents your machine from moving outside operator-defined parameters.

Ground-level shutoff switch stops all fuel to the engine when activated and shuts down the machine.

Keep your machine secure with Operator ID. Use your PIN code on the monitor to enable the push-button starting feature.

Enjoy great all-around visibility with the help of smaller cab pillars, larger windows, and a flat engine hood design. Rearview and side-view cameras are standard.

Standard 1800-lumen LED exterior lights illuminate your surroundings for a safer work environment.

Thick impact-resistant windshields fulfill P5A standards.

Service platform design provides easy, safe, and quick access to the upper service platform. The service platform steps use an anti-skid punch plate to prevent slipping.

The standard hydraulic lockout lever isolates all hydraulic and travel functions in the lowered position.

Optional Operator Protective Guards (OPG) protect from falling and flying debris.

When activated, the ground-level shutoff switch stops all fuel in the engine and shuts down the machine.

In an emergency, safely lower the cab with the cab lowering valve behind the cab riser or to the right of the seat. The valve located behind the cab riser is easily accessible.

Boom and stick lowering check valves prevent reverse flow, keeping your front linkage securely in place should the hydraulic system unexpectedly lose pressure.

Make service work more accessible 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.

Sustainability

The Cat® C9.3B turbo diesel engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final and EU Stage V emission standards.

Cat diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels** up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester)* or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrogenated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.

Auto Engine Speed Control reduces unnecessary fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions by allowing the engine to automatically go into idle mode when the machine is not working.

Cat® 2D E-fence keeps the front linkage within a predefined work area to avoid hazards such as traffic - not only helping keep personnel safe and helps avoid repairs, downtime, and costly job site fines.

Extended maintenance intervals reduce downtime and decrease the amount of fluid and filters that are replaced over the machine's life.

VisionLink® displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.

Remote Flash minimizes downtime and maintenance time while keeping your asset running with maximum efficiency. Alerts for machine updates are sent virtually from your Cat dealer and updates can be deployed without a dealer technician needing to be onsite.

Remote Troubleshoot decreases maintenance time and keeps your machine running with maximum efficiency by allowing your Cat dealer to virtually test the machine while working. Once a problem is identified, a technician can fix it the first time, saving time and money.

*Engines with no aftertreatment devices can use higher blends, up to 100% biodiesel (for use of blends higher than 20% biodiesel, consult your Cat dealer).
**Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels.
