Product Description

I inspected this Cat 318DL excavator equipped with the REGA package today. The track wear is within the normal range; given the intensity of use, this set of track chains should last quite a long time. Usual dust in engine but pulled out dipstick and oil is OK and not milky or anything else, radiator fins have some crap on them but hose them off and they’re fine. Hydraulics – no oil leaking from seals or lines, all the hoses seem to have another season ahead of them at least, no cracks or blisters on the outside rubber, and there’s a lot of MegaSys branded lines; all are fine. The paint goes counterweight; no problem there, though. No cracks. Brush or rocks must’ve damaged both the boom and stick – checked ping – no pin can be pinged about which is what you are looking for.

I was a little bit surprised with the interior of the cab, I’ve seen worse, the floor of the cab has mud of course but I think the seat orubbery wasn’t ripped and the boot for the joystick wasn’t ripped up like it is on the rental cabs. Dirty outside of windows or street sides, no star or cracks in the glass. Seals in the door seem to be in good shape, black rubber does not appear to be dry or peeling. Walk around checks were satisfactory.  I noticed one thing, looked at the underside a few times, just to be extra safety conscious, they all had mud on them, so I couldn’t see any teeth clearly, but I don’t think anything was ripped off, if it was I would have been able to see them. Also the rollers spin freely when I pushed them with my boot. No leaks. Some paint fade and chips on the rear corner (cosmetic) body panels the same, work scars, but not structural issues with the paint. Access panels for engine are closed correctly.

Picked up one 2025 CAT 320D2 for a highway expansion job we just won out in Texas. Was worried about the hours being rolled back because you see that everywhere now but our shop foreman plugged in the laptop and ECM matched the dash exactly. Good solid iron.

My guys have been running the Volvo EC210D we got off here for about 400 hours now. Zero downtime. The inspection report noted a slight weep on the bucket cylinder which I appreciated Equipment auditors on the machdealers platform telling me upfront. Repacked the cylinder for $150 and it's been making us money ever since.

Load a lot of containers for West Africa out of different ports. Best thing about machdealers platform is they get the export docs right the first time. Commercial invoice, packing list, title. No delays at Jebel Ali Port Customs. Bought 4 KOMATSU PC200-8 from them so far.

We run a basalt quarry site in Central Ethiopia, we needed a 36 ton heavy excavator that can run 24/7 loading rock. Found a used KOMATSU PC 350 on here, after 3 weeks non stop continuous operation on site, engine temperature stayed normal all the time. That machine takes so much beating on our rocky ground, no issues at all. Exactly the tough workhorse we needed.

The shipment from korea to Uganda took a little over four weeks, slightly longer than I was initially told, but the platform sent me weekly photo updates showing the machine's location on the ship, so I never worried about losing money. The machine arrived in perfect condition, and the short wait was worthwhile. Overall, I'm very satisfied.

We found a Volvo EC240 excavator at a very good price for our new residential project. The seller even uploaded complete maintenance records from the previous owner, saving us the cost of hiring an independent inspector and flying in to check the machine's condition. This alone saved us over $800 in travel expenses.

    I’m a one man show doing septic tanks and grading. Rented forever until I found a Kubota U35 here. Wth financing rates right now I needed a cash deal. Got a great price. Rubber tracks are almost new. Starts every morning no problem.
