Product Advantages
Premium Engine Integration: We prioritize global serviceability by offering genuine Kubota D722 diesel engines. These powerplants are fully compliant with EPA Tier 4 Final and Euro Stage V emissions, ensuring legal operation and easy local parts sourcing at any authorized dealer.
Hydraulic Retractable Undercarriage: At the push of a lever, the tracks contract to 800mm for narrow access and expand to 950mm for a stable digging platform. This is a critical feature for safely working on uneven residential terrain.
Independent Swing Boom: Our 1-ton diggers feature a swing boom function that allows the operator to dig parallel to walls or fences without repositioning the entire machine. This is essential for urban utility and boundary work.
Protected Hydraulic Routing: To prevent downtime, all hydraulic hoses on the boom are routed internally or shielded by steel guards. The boom cylinder is positioned on top of the boom to protect it from damage during excavation.
Versatile Attachment System: Equipped with a standard quick-hitch, the 1 ton digger is compatible with a wide array of tools including hydraulic breakers, augers, wood grapples, and rakes, turning one machine into a multi-purpose fleet.

Farming & Estates: Clearing drainage ditches and fence post installation in tight paddock corners.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
