Reliable, well-maintained Bobcat 331 compact excavator with one of the biggest expenses already taken care of—a dealer-installed remanufactured Kubota V2203 diesel engine with only approximately 370 hours since replacement.
The machine currently shows 6,522 hours, while the replacement engine was installed by Peak Bobcat of Marysville at 6,151 hours in October 2021. The installation included a remanufactured Kubota V2203 Tier 2 engine, new pump drive coupler, filters, fluids, and a complete dealer installation. The invoice is included with the sale.
The Bobcat 331 has earned a reputation as one of the most dependable mini excavators in its class. Powered by the proven 40 HP Kubota diesel engine, it offers excellent digging performance while remaining compact enough to work in residential yards, landscaping projects, utility work, construction sites, farms, and property maintenance.
This machine presents well for its age. The engine compartment is clean, the operator station is in good condition with an upgraded seat, the hydraulic system appears dry, and the boom, stick, blade, and undercarriage show normal cosmetic wear consistent with careful use. The rubber tracks have good remaining life, and the machine is equipped with a quick coupler and bucket.
Whether you're a contractor, landscaper, farmer, or homeowner looking for a dependable mini excavator, this Bobcat is ready to go to work.
