Small Excavator

About Small Excavator

The YFT10 Mini Excavator is a compact and versatile piece of construction machinery designed for a variety of digging, lifting, and small-scale earth-moving tasks. This mini excavator is typically used in tight spaces where larger equipment cannot access or operate efficiently. Below is a breakdown of its main features and specifications:

Key Features of the YFT10 Mini Excavator:

1. Engine and Power:

   • Powered by a fuel-efficient diesel engine that typically produces around 10 to 12 horsepower (depending on the model). This gives it enough power for small to medium tasks like trenching, grading, or site preparation.

2. Compact Size:

   • The YFT10 is designed with a narrow body and short tail swing, allowing it to maneuver through tight spaces and work in confined areas, such as residential projects, landscaping, or urban construction sites.

3. Digging Depth:

   • The digging depth is generally around 1.8 meters (5.9 feet), which is typical for mini excavators in this size range. This makes it capable of handling various excavation tasks like small trenches, footings, or garden landscaping.

4. Boom and Arm:

   • It typically features a hydraulic boom and arm with excellent range and flexibility for digging, lifting, and reaching into challenging spots. The arm is designed to extend and retract, providing a higher reach for tasks like loading or clearing.

5. Operating Weight:

   • The weight of the YFT10 mini excavator usually falls between 1,000 to 2,000 kg (2,200 to 4,400 lbs), making it light enough to be transported easily while still offering good stability during operation.

6. Tracks:

   • It uses rubber tracks instead of wheels, which provide better stability and traction on soft or uneven terrain. The tracks also minimize damage to paved or delicate surfaces, making the YFT10 suitable for a range of ground conditions.

7. Hydraulic System:

   • The excavator features a hydraulic system that allows smooth and powerful movements for digging and lifting. The hydraulic controls are typically user-friendly, providing operators with precise control over the machines performance.

8. Cabin/Operator Comfort:

   • The operator's cabin is usually open or semi-enclosed, providing basic comfort and visibility. Some models may offer ergonomic seating, joystick controls, and other user-centric features to enhance the operators experience during long hours of work.

9. Versatile Attachments:

   • The YFT10 is designed to be compatible with a variety of attachments, including buckets, augers, hydraulic hammers, and forks, allowing it to be customized for specific tasks.

10. Fuel Efficiency:

    • Its small engine and design focus on minimizing fuel consumption, which can make it cost-effective for long-term operation, especially for smaller contractors or rental companies.

Common Applications:

• Landscaping: Excavating for gardens, small ponds, or land clearing.

• Utility Work: Digging for utility lines like water, sewer, or electric cables.

• Demolition: Breaking down small structures or debris removal.

• Excavation: Small-scale trenching, foundation preparation, or site grading.

Safety Features:

• Stability: Equipped with stabilizer arms and a low center of gravity to ensure safe operation.

• Operator Protection: Some models may offer a ROPS (Rollover Protective Structure) and FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure) for additional safety.
