Sized for bulk earthmoving, quarry and large groundworks contractors who need high dig depth and bucket capacity rather than tight site manoeuvrability. It sits above the typical hire-fleet mid-range and suits larger civils and demolition packages.

A step up for bigger footings, groundworks and landscaping. At 2.5 tonnes it needs a 3.5 tonne plant trailer and a tow vehicle rated for the combined weight, or delivery on a lorry. Maximum dig depth is 2,803 mm. 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.
