Buy or hire the EZ50 if...
- you want one that has 17kW more power
A midi excavator for groundworks, utilities and landscaping contractors. At 4.8 tonnes it arrives on a lorry rather than behind a car. It digs to 3,667 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.

Buy or hire the ViO26-6 if...
A 2.6-tonne zero-tailswing mini digger widely used by plant hire firms for groundwork in tight spaces such as gardens and driveways, where its lack of rear overhang keeps it clear of walls and fences while slewing.
