Buy or hire the D51PX if...

A mid-size dozer built with wider, low ground pressure tracks for soft or wet ground. Groundworks and landfill contractors choose the PX variant over a standard-track D51 where the ground itself would otherwise bog a machine down.

Buy or hire the EZ17e if...

The 1.5 tonne class is the busiest size in UK hire fleets. At 1,797kg it digs to 2,323 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.
