Mini excavators are excellent at what they're built for -- digging in confined Spaces. But what you may not know is that they perform a variety of tasks besides mining. Paired with the right accessory and coupler system to allow quick and simple switching, here are three jobs that demonstrate how you can do more digging with a Mini excavator:
Grader - To transform excavators with backfill blades into coarse or fine machines and backfill leveling machines. Corner blades are essential for backfilling and grading quickly -- no window fouling forms. A grading bucket can complement your efforts with its ability to cut, fill and grade. Combined with tilting swing fittings, the bucket can gain significant range of motion, easily creating depressions and shape profiles.
Breaking concrete - Excavators are ideal for disassembly work. Equipped with a concrete crusher, you can remove concrete and asphalt driveways, sidewalks, trails, footpaths and swimming pools. This powerful combination can reduce vertical structures, such as old buildings and retaining walls, into manageable blocks.
Clearing/loading - In development target areas, compact excavators can improve performance through their ability to level dead or fallen trees and clear brush. Universal accessories - such as medium bucket teeth, clamps and three-pronged grabs - can grab, pull and drag saplings and rooted bushes, as well as sort and load materials. In conjunction with a connected lawn mower, the compact excavator excels at clearing brush, saplings and grass. Excavators equipped with retractable arms can provide up to 30 inches more space than standard arms if you want to go deeper into the forest or into a truck bed.
When attachment changes are easy, you are more likely to use the right attachment for your work. Many compact excavators come standard with an attachment installation system, which makes switching between attachments quick and easy. The optional hydraulic power fast rev system provides faster, effortless accessory changes.
Dig-dog ® mini excavators are designed to handle as many multi-purpose work sites as you can throw on them with more standard equipment, including fast systems, hoses and couplers, controls, and fixture installations. For other manufacturers, these are added features.
