Introduction
Since its introduction in the 1990s, the 300 Series
family of excavators has become the industry
standard in general, quarry, and heavy construction
applications. The all-new E Series and the 329E
will continue that trend-setting standard.
The 329E meets today’s U.S. emission standards.
It is also built with several new fuel-saving and
comfort-enabling features and bene ts that will
delight owners and operators.
If you are looking for more productivity and comfort,
less fuel consumption and emissions, and easier
and more sensible serviceability, you will nd
it in the all-new 329E and the E Series family
ofexcavators.
Reduced emissions, economical and reliable performance
Cat® C7.1 ACERT™ Engine
The Cat C7.1 ACERT engine delivers more horsepower using
less fuel than the previous series engine.
Emissions Solution
The C7.1 ACERT engine is equipped to meet U.S.Tier4
Interim emission standards. Driven by customer input,
Caterpillar’s aftertreatment regeneration solution ensures
themachine works with no operator interventionneeded.
The machine comes with two modes of regeneration:
automatic and manual.
In automatic mode, the machine starts the regeneration
process once the ltering system reaches a certain level and
conditions are optimal. The system will not interrupt the
work process and can regenerate during machine operation.
Manual mode enables the operator to override the automatic
mode. With a touch of a button inside the cab, this mode
allows the operator to move the machine from ammableor
heat-restricted areas before initiating the regeneration process.
Biodiesel-Ready Fuel System
The C7.1 ACERT engine is equipped with an electroniccontrolled high-pressure fuel system that includes an electric
priming pump and three-layer fuel hose to allow the use
ofbiodiesel (meeting ASTM 6751 or EN 14214) up to B20
(biodiesel 20% mixture).
Cooling System
The cooling system features side-by-side-mounted hydraulic
oil cooler and engine radiator with a tilt-out condenser and
air-to-air aftercooler for easy cleaning. The fan automatically
adjusts to ambient temperatures to help reducefuel
consumption and noise.
Speed and Power Control
The E Series features speed control to maintain a constant
speed – regardless of load – to improve fuel economy.
Threedifferent power modes are offered: high power,
standard power, and economy power. The operator can
easily change between modes through the monitor or
consoleswitch to meet the needs for the job at hand –
alltohelp manage and conserve fuel.

Operator Station
Comfort and convenience to keep people productive
Seats
The seat range includes air suspension, heated, and air cooled
options. Each option includes a reclining back, upper and lower
seat slide adjustments, and height and tilt angle adjustments
to meet operator needs for comfort and productivity.
Controls
The right and left joystick consoles can be adjusted to meet
individual preferences, improving operator comfort and
productivity during the course of a day. With the touch of the
button, one-touch idle reduces engine speed to help save fuel;
touch it again or move the joystick and the machine returns
to normal operating level. The heavy lift mode increases
machine system pressure to improve lift – a nice bene t in
certain situations. Heavy lift mode also reduces engine speed
and pump ow in order to improve controllability.
Monitor
The 329E is equipped with a new LCD (Liquid Crystal
Display) monitor that’s 40% bigger and has higher resolution
than the previous model’s monitor. In addition to an improved
keypad and added functionality, it’s programmable to provide
information in a choice of 42 languages to support today’s
diverse workforce.
An “Engine Shutdown Setting” accessible through the
monitor allows owners and operators to specify how long the
machine should idle before shutting down the engine, which
can save signicant amounts of fuel.
The image of the rearview camera is displayed directly on the
monitor. Up to two different camera images can be displayed
on the screen at the same time.
MP3-Ready Radio and Power Supply
The standard radio is equipped with a new auxiliary audio
port for MP3 players. Two 12-volt power supply sockets are
located near key storage areas for charging electronic devices.
Storage
Storage spaces are located in the front, rear, and side consoles.
Space near the auxiliary power supply holds MP3 players
and cell phones. The drink holder accommodates large mugs
with handles, and a shelf behind the seat stores large lunch
or toolboxes.
Automatic Climate Control
The climate control system features ve air outlets with
positive ltered ventilation, which makes working in the heat
and cold much more pleasant for operators.

Hydraulics
Power to move more dirt, rock, and debris with speed and precision
Hydraulic Horsepower
Hydraulic horsepower is the actual machine power available to do work through implements and work tools. It’s much more
than just the engine power under the hood – it’s a core strength that differentiates Cat machines from other brands.
Main Control Valve and Auxiliary Valves
The 329E uses a high-pressure system to tackle the toughest of work in short order. The machine features a simple, highly
efcient back-to-back main control valve to improve fuel consumption and reliability. Also, shortened spool lengths and
abuilt-in drift reduction valve have been added for greater controllability.
Return Filter
The return lter is a capsule-type design with a cartridge inside. The Cat cartridge features a handle to help remove and change oil
without spillage or contamination. A sensor attached to the lter warns the operator if it is full or exceeds a certain pressure level.
Swing Priority Circuit
The swing priority circuit on the 329E uses an electric valve that’s operated by the machine’s Electronic Control Module
(ECM). Compared to using a hydraulic valve, an electric valve allows for more nely tuned control, which is critical during
material loading.
Electric Boom Regeneration Valve
An electric boom regeneration valve minimizes pump ow when the boom lowers down, which helps improve fuel ef ciency.
This unique Cat feature is optimized for any dial speed setting being used by the operator, which results in less pressure loss for
higher controllability and more productivity with lower operating costs.
Stick Regeneration Circuit
The 329E regenerates the ow of oil from the rod end to the head end of the stick cylinder during low-load, stick-in operation –
an approach that saves energy and expense.

Front Linkage
Made for high stress and long service life
Booms and Sticks
The 329E is offered with a range of booms and sticks
(seelistbelow). Each is built with internal bafe plates for
added durability, and each undergoes ultrasound inspection
to ensure weld quality and reliability.
Large box-section structures with thick, multi-plate
fabrications, castings, and forgings are used in high-stress
areas such astheboom nose, boom foot, boom cylinder,
andstick foot to improve durability.
The boom nose pin retention method is a durable captured
ag design. Boom durability is improved with a number of
plate thickness changes. Also, the front linkage pins’ inner
bearing surfaces are welded, and a self-lubricated bearing
isused to extendservice intervals and increase uptime.
Selections
There are three basic boom options: HD, SLR, and ME.
Sticks match the boom descriptions and applications below:
HD = Heavy Duty
This type of boom is best used for reach applications where
conditions are optimal such as excavating basements, trenching
for utility lines, and sewer applications.
SLR = Super Long Reach
This conguration offers reaches to 60 feet. It is well suited
for ditch cleaning applications.
ME = Mass Excavation
Mass is best used for quarry, high-volume loading, and
other demanding applications. Mass fronts provide higher
digging forces due to the geometry of the boom and stick
relationship. Bucket linkage and cylinders are also built
forgreater durability.

seconds for maximum performance and exibility on a job
site. One machine can move rapidly from task to task, and
a eet of similarly equipped machines can share a common
work tool inventory.
Cat Center-Lock™ Pin Grabber Coupler
Center-Lock is the pin grabber style of coupler and features
a patent-pending locking system. A highly visible secondary
lock clearly shows the operator when the coupler is engaged
or disengaged from the bucket or work tool.
Buckets
Cat Next Generation buckets are designed as an integral
part of the 329E system and feature new geometry for better
performance. The leading edge has been pushed forward,
resulting in more ef cient lling and better operator control
for greatly improved productivity. Wear coverage in the
corners and side cutter and sidebar protector coverage are
improved; a new lift eye design accepts a wide range of
shackle sizes. All benets are captured in a new bucket line
with a new bucket naming convention.
Four Durability Categories Suitable for Any Situation
Caterpillar offers four standard bucket categories for
excavators. Each category is based on intended bucket
durability when used in recommended applications and
material. Each bucket durability type is available as pin-on
or canbe used with a Quick Coupler. Red areas on bucket
images illustrate additional protection against wear as it
increases across each category.

General Duty (GD)
GD buckets are for digging in low-impact, low-abrasion
material such as dirt, loam, and mixed compositions of dirt
and ne gravel.
Heavy Duty (HD)
The most popular bucket style, HD buckets are a good
starting point when digging conditions are not well known
like a wide range of impact and abrasion conditions that
include mixed dirt, clay, and rock.
Severe Duty (SD)
SD buckets are for higher abrasion conditions such as well
shot granite and caliche.
Extreme Duty (XD)
XD buckets are the new standard for high-abrasion
conditions, including high quartzite granite.
Specialty Buckets
In addition to the four levels of bucket durability categories,
several specialty buckets are available for the 329E, each with

*Indicates that the load is limited by hydraulic lifting capacity rather than tipping load. The above loads are in compliance with hydraulic excavator lift capacity
standard ISO 10567:2007. They do not exceed 87% of hydraulic lifting capacity or 75% of tipping load. Weight of all lifting accessories must be deducted from the
above lifting capacities. Lifting capacities are based on the machine standing on a firm, uniform supporting surface. The use of a work tool attachment point to
handle/lift objects, could affect the machine lift performance.
Always refer to the appropriate Operation and Maintenance Manual for specific product information.

Caterpillar recommends using appropriate work tools to maximize the value customers receive from our products. Use of work tools, including buckets, which are
outside of Caterpillar’s recommendations or specifications for weight, dimensions, flows, pressures, etc. may result in less-than-optimal performance, including
but not limited to reductions in production, stability, reliability, and component durability. Improper use of a work tool resulting in sweeping, prying, twisting and/or
catching of heavy loads will reduce the life of the boom and stick.
