Mini diggers, also known as compact excavators or mini excavators, are essential pieces of equipment for a variety of construction, landscaping, and demolition projects. Their small size and powerful capabilities make them ideal for working in tight spaces and on jobs that require precision.
In this blog post, we’ll explore the different sizes of mini diggers, focusing on their width, and the various applications they can be used for. We’ll also discuss the benefits of using mini diggers and how they can help you complete your projects more efficiently.
¾ tonne mini digger
The ¾ tonne mini digger is designed to fit through standard gateways and doorways with its narrow width of 30 inches (76 cm). This compact size makes it perfect for hard-to-reach areas, such as backyards and narrow side passages.
Despite its small stature, it is capable of digging to a depth of 1.8 meters (5.9 feet). If you need to break up concrete, this mini digger can also be equipped with a concrete breaker attachment, making it suitable for tasks like removing paths and driveways.
1.5 Tonne Digger
When you need a bit more power and digging capacity, the 1.5-tonne mini digger is a great option. It can pass through 40-inch (102 cm) gaps, providing access to rear gardens and other wider spaces. With a digging depth of 2.3 meters (7.5 feet), this mini digger can handle larger-sized jobs like digging trenches, creating ponds, or excavating for foundations.
