Compact yet powerful, the 1.5-ton Mini Digger / Excavator is engineered to deliver outstanding performance in tight and demanding worksites. With an operating weight of 1,540kg, it’s perfectly suited for landscaping, small foundations, utility trenching, and other light to medium-duty excavation tasks.
Featuring a digging depth of up to 2.25 metres and a maximum reach of 3.73 metres, this digger makes light work of deeper or awkward excavation jobs. The machine’s rubber tracks reduce ground disturbance while providing exceptional traction on a range of terrains, from soft soils to compact gravel.
The variable-width undercarriage allows the tracks to be extended for better stability during digging or retracted for access through narrow gates and tight working areas.
Operator comfort is built in. A spacious cabin with generous legroom, a flat floor, and an adjustable suspension seat helps reduce fatigue and supports productive operation throughout long working days.
Whether you’re working in a back garden or on a busy commercial site, this digger is designed to offer professional-grade results with intuitive handling and compact mobility.
