Buy or hire the TB216 if...
The Takeuchi TB216 is a long-running fixture of the UK 1.5-2 tonne mini excavator hire class, used for groundworks, drainage and small demolition jobs. Its extendable undercarriage gives it the stability of a wider track base for digging while still narrowing for transport and access. It competes closely with the Kubota KX019-4 and similarly sized Bobcat and JCB machines for the same hire slots.

The DV60 suits groundworks and demolition sites moving muck and aggregate over rough ground, since its swivelling Dual View console lets the operator always face the direction of travel instead of driving in reverse. Its 6 tonne payload sits above a typical mini dumper but below the larger DV90.
