Using this 2019 Caterpillar Excavator is straightforward. First, make sure the machine is on a stable surface before starting it up. When operating in water areas, the amphibious undercarriage will give you great support. Use the long - reach attachment for jobs that need extra distance, like cleaning the far - end of a pond. For maintenance, regularly check the pontoons through the service manholes. Look for any signs of wear on the track chain, rollers, and bushings. If you notice any issues, replace them promptly. When transporting the excavator, take advantage of its modular design to make the process easier. Always follow safety protocols and read the operator's manual before using the machine.
