Mini Compact Excavator Kubota D902 Engine, 89″ Max. Digging Depth, 1.7 Ton, 4145 LBS Operating Weight, MEC17

This 1.7-ton mini excavator is powered by Kubota's 3-cylinder D902 diesel, rated at 15.8 net horsepower, and reaches an 89-inch maximum digging depth with an operating weight of 4145 pounds.

Reach and digging force

A 72-inch boom and a 37.4-inch arm are what give this machine its 89-inch maximum digging depth, more vertical reach than a smaller compact excavator typically offers, which suits trenching and foundation work where depth matters as much as bucket size. A 17.7-inch, 1.4-cubic-foot bucket is sized to the digging force this engine and hydraulic system can deliver.

Undercarriage and swing

Six track rollers under rubber tracks spread weight for stability while digging, and the house itself rotates at 9.5 rpm through a Danfoss swing motor. Travel speed tops out at 2.67 mph in high range and 1.37 mph in low range, so expect to trailer it between sites rather than drive it there.

What size bucket does it carry? A 17.7-inch bucket rated at 1.4 cubic feet.

How deep can it dig? Up to 89 inches at maximum digging depth, with a 72-inch boom and 37.4-inch arm behind that reach.

New condition. The D902 engine's warranty runs 2 years or 2,000 hours of use, whichever comes first, with the machine itself covered for 1 year. California's Proposition 65 law requires a warning that exhaust from diesel equipment such as this one is associated with cancer and reproductive harm.
