Specifications > Excavator

The excavator is primarily used for digging of detailed works or large bulk earthworks.

Machine size will vary for each job with consideration being made for access into site and maneuverability once on site. All excavators require the services of a truck to float the item to site. Excavators are very slow tracked machines that are not designed for carting of material their primary task is for digging/loading of material.
