Mini Excavators

Mini Excavators covers five compact hydraulic excavators from 1.0 to 3.5 tons operating weight – the size class that fits through a garden gate, tracks across a finished lawn on rubber and still digs deep enough for footings and drainage. Four run a diesel engine; one is battery-electric for indoor demolition, basements and noise-restricted sites.Choose by access first, then reach. The 1.0 ton machine has a retractable undercarriage that narrows to 27.6 in. for gateways and digs 5 ft 9 in. deep. The 1.7 and 2.5 ton machines are the general-purpose sizes for landscaping and utility trenching, at 7 ft 6 in. and 8 ft 8 in. dig depth. The 3.5 ton machine has an enclosed heated cab and reaches 11 ft 2 in. Every listing publishes pin diameter, ear width and auxiliary hydraulic flow so you can check an attachment against it. Machines ship free to the 48 contiguous states on a flatbed or drop-deck trailer, unloaded down ramps at the curb, and can be returned unused within 30 days of delivery.
