-The [[Excavator]] is a [[Vehicles|vehicle]] used for digging. It is crafted at the [[Robotic Assembly Line]].
-It is fueled with [[Petroleum]], [[Gasoline]] or [[Biodiesel]].
-==Strategy==
-The Excavator requires roads that are 4 to 5 blocks wide to drive comfortably.
-It can dig [[Stone]], [[Dirt]], ore, [[Sand]], and [[Coal]], and can even break tree branches. With Stone or ores, the Excavator must first break the blocks before picking up the pieces.
-Items can not be dumped from the Excavator directly into [[Stockpiles]] or any other storage. Doing this will simply try to place them on top of the Stockpile, which will create issues.
-Digging with the Excavator will consume more fuel than when it is being driven. It does not appear the pollution rate increases during digging.
-==Operating Instructions==
-While you are in the driver's seat, mouse over the "1" slot on your toolbar. This will display the operating instructions.
-Press {{Key|1}} to go from drive mode to digging mode. Pressing {{Key|1}} when driving will instantly stop you, and lock your Excavator in place.
-===Drive mode controls===
-* {{Key|W}} — Move Forward
-* {{Key|S}} — Move Backwards
-* {{Key|A}} — Turn Left
-* {{Key|D}} — Turn Right
-* '''Mouse''' — Free look
-===Digging mode controls===
-* {{Key|W}} — Raise Boom
-* {{Key|S}} — Lower boom
-* {{Key|A}} — Rotate left
-* {{Key|D}} — Rotate right
-* '''Mouse''' — Free look
-* '''Mouse left click''' — Dig
-* '''Mouse right click''' — Drop item (whatever you have highlighted on your tool bar, press and hold to quickly empty)
-* '''Mouse left click + Move mouse left''' — Close bucket
-* '''Mouse left click + Move mouse''' — Open bucket
-* '''Mouse left click + Move mouse up''' — Extend boom
-* '''Mouse left click + Move mouse down''' — Retract boom
-==Notes==
-* You can use WSAD keys and Mouse commands at the same time for maximum digging! Note that left click will always dig, so while moving your boom/bucket you can dig at the same time.
-* Keep in mind it is a very heavy item to carry in your inventory at 30kg.  If it gets stuck you can pick it up like a cart, but you have to have the weight to do so.
