Excavators are commonly used mechanical equipment in the engineering field. They are powered by engines, and hydraulic systems drive working devices such as booms, dipper arms, and buckets.
They have crawler and wheeled travel modes. They can rotate 360 degrees and are flexible to operate. By replacing accessories such as breaker hammers and grabs, they can achieve a variety of operating functions, such as digging, crushing, and grabbing. They are widely used in construction, mining, municipal engineering, agricultural production, and other fields, with high operating efficiency and guaranteed safety performance.

Excavators deliver powerful digging force, with bucket operations—such as breaking, excavating, and trenching—far exceeding manual efficiency. Equipped with quick-change couplers, they can rapidly switch between hydraulic breakers, timber grapples, and rippers, allowing a single machine to perform excavation, breaking, site clearing, and lifting. The undercarriage offers excellent off-road performance, navigating muddy and uneven job sites with ease; they are suitable for infrastructure, municipal, and mining projects. Precise control ensures neat, well-formed results that minimize the need for manual finishing, significantly saving labor over the long term and lowering overall construction costs.
This 1.8-ton mini excavator is a cost-effective machine specifically engineered for light construction, landscaping, and renovation projects. Powered by a Laidong LD385 engine that delivers stable and reliable performance, the unit features a compact design while supporting a wide range of optional configurations and versatile attachments. Its adaptability allows it to flexibly suit diverse operational scenarios, making it an ideal choice for individual users, small construction teams, and landscaping contractors.

Stable and Powerful Performance: Balancing Efficiency with Fuel Economy
Equipped with a Laidong LD385 engine, delivering a robust 39 horsepower output with rapid throttle response—ensuring greater power during startup, excavation, and climbing operations.
The engine features optimized tuning for low fuel consumption; while maintaining high operational efficiency, it significantly reduces fuel usage, resulting in lower daily operating costs.
Boasting a mature and reliable engine structure, the unit utilizes widely available and easy-to-source spare parts, making maintenance simple and hassle-free while minimizing downtime.
Power delivery is smooth and stable with no noticeable jerking during operation; when paired with the hydraulic system, it ensures fluid and precise movements.
Ultra-Compact Design: Effortless Operation in Confined Spaces
With overall dimensions of just 2250 × 1150 × 2200 mm and a body width of only 1150 mm, the machine easily navigates garden paths, standard doorways, and narrow alleys within urban villages.
Featuring a swing radius of just 840 mm, it offers flexible in-place turning capabilities; requiring minimal clearance, it allows for easy operation even in tight corners and confined job sites.
The ground-level excavation radius extends up to 3227 mm, providing a wide working range that minimizes the need for frequent machine repositioning, thereby boosting construction efficiency.
With a transport length of only 2550 mm and a total weight of 1.8 tons, it is compatible with small trailers for transport, making inter-site transfers both convenient and rapid.
Flexible and Adjustable Performance: Adapting to Diverse Working Conditions
Optional Side-Swing Boom: The boom can swing laterally (left and right), enabling close-quarters work alongside walls or fences to eliminate blind spots in corners without the need for constant machine repositioning.
Optional Telescopic Boom: The working reach can be adjusted on demand to suit varying excavation depths and operational ranges, ensuring efficient construction even in complex terrain.
Optional High/Low-Speed Travel Modes: Use high-speed mode for rapid transit across flat ground to reach the job site quickly; switch to low-speed mode on muddy or rough job site surfaces for increased power and enhanced traction to prevent slippage.
The dozer blade features a lifting height of up to 325 mm, allowing for easy site leveling and trench backfilling; it also serves to stabilize the machine, effectively minimizing vibration during operation.
Durable and Reliable Configuration: Minimizing Long-Term Operating Costs
Optional Steel Tracks: Highly wear-resistant and rugged, suitable for complex terrains—including sand, gravel, construction sites, and muddy ground—ensuring a longer service life and exceptional durability.
Track Dimensions (Width: 230mm; Length: 1500mm): Features a balanced ground contact area that optimizes both stability and off-road capability, significantly reducing the risk of the vehicle getting stuck in soft soil.
Ground Clearance (380mm): Easily clears obstacles such as construction site rocks, field ridges, and ditches; offers superior passability, eliminating the need for frequent manual clearing of path obstructions.
Chassis Dimensions (Width: 1150mm; Length: 1800mm): Built upon a robust chassis structure that ensures exceptional stability during operation, minimizing the risk of tipping over and guaranteeing operational safety.
The 1.8-ton mini-excavator is ideally suited for a wide range of light-duty applications:
Material Handling & Site Cleanup: Timber transfer, removal of construction debris, site leveling, and backfilling.
Agricultural & Orchard Operations: Trenching for fertilization, planting pit excavation for fruit trees, irrigation ditch digging, and minor farmland improvements.
Small-scale Construction & Utility Works: Foundation excavation, trenching for cables and water pipes, and minor road repairs.
Urban Village Redevelopment & Confined Workspaces: Perfectly suited for narrow alleys and tight construction sites; its boom swing function resolves the challenges associated with working flush against walls.
Enclosed Cab: Provides an independent workspace that isolates the operator from dust and noise, allowing for normal operations even in rainy weather.
Air Conditioning + Heating System: Offers cooling in the summer and heating in the winter, ensuring operator comfort even when working in extreme weather conditions.
Luxury Seat: Features an ergonomic design that prevents fatigue during prolonged sitting, thereby reducing operator strain during long work shifts.
Radio: Allows for music playback during operations to alleviate monotony and enhance the overall work experience.
Customizable Color Schemes: The machine's body color can be customized to align with your brand identity or personal preferences, ensuring greater visual distinctiveness.
