The Yanmar ViO17 is a 1.7-tonne mini excavator that uses a retractable undercarriage to get into the tightest of spaces, then expands out to full width giving you the stability you need to get the job done. It’s the perfect tool for jobs in places where space is at a premium, be it doorways, pathways, or tight residential areas.
Under the bonnet is a fuel efficient Yanmar diesel engine that gives you the power you need to get the job done. You can use the ViO17 to dig trenches, demolish small objects, or do electrical or plumbing work in residential areas. And despite its compact size, it’s got a very responsive hydraulic system that lets you do fine grading and precise digging with ease.
The operator station is designed to be comfortable and easy to use, even in tight working spaces. You’ve got good visibility, low vibration levels and all the controls are easy to use as well. The machine’s zero tail swing makes it safe to use in tight spaces and makes it easy to get in and out of tight spots.
Maintenance is a breeze thanks to easily accessed service points and of course, the reliability of the Yanmar engine. You can even transport these things on a smaller truck – perfect for small contractors, landscapers and hire fleets who work on residential jobs.
It’s a very capable little machine, perfect for users who need a mini excavator that can do real work in spaces where space is severely limited.
