- you want one that has 41kW more power
A compact wheeled loading shovel used for yard work, muck-away and material handling on smaller sites. Its size suits jobs too tight for a full-size wheel loader but too heavy for a skid steer.

Buy or hire the EZ17 if...
The 1.5 tonne class is the busiest size in UK hire fleets. At 1,724kg it goes on a braked plant trailer behind a large 4x4 or pickup, and digs to 2,590 mm for footings, drainage runs and fence posts. Zero tail swing means the back of the machine stays inside the tracks when it slews, so it can work tight against a wall or in one lane of a road.
