HT15KS Mini Excavator
Need a mini excavator that can fit through a standard garden gate and still dig deep enough for utility trenches? The HT15KS is a 1-ton compact excavator built for tight residential jobs, greenhouse work, and small-scale landscaping projects. At just 1 meter wide, it maneuvers through narrow pathways where larger machines simply can't go – yet it still delivers a 1.75m digging depth and 2.62m reach for real work.
Here's what the numbers actually mean for your job:
-
1,000mm total width – fits through most standard doorways and garden gates
-
1,750mm max digging depth – deep enough for residential utility lines and foundation footings
-
2,620mm max digging height – loads dirt into standard dump trailers with ease
-
30° climbing ability – handles slopes and uneven terrain without losing stability
-
1000kg operating weight – light enough to tow behind a pickup truck on a standard trailer
The HT15KS is powered by a KOOP KD2V80 12kW water-cooled diesel engine – reliable, fuel-efficient, and easy to service. The TENGFEI main valve ensures smooth hydraulic control, so you get precise movements when working next to foundations or landscaping features. With a 0.02m³ bucket capacity, it's sized for efficient small-scale earthmoving without overloading the machine.
This machine is built for contractors, landscapers, and property owners who need a compact digger for everyday tasks:
-
Trenching for utilities and drainage
-
Tree stump removal and root clearing
-
Greenhouse and nursery work
-
Small foundation digging
-
Landscape preparation and grading
-
Indoor demolition in confined spaces
For customers in Europe and other regulated markets, the HT15KS can be configured with engines that meet local emission requirements. We handle export documentation, biosecurity cleaning, and container loading for every international shipment – so you get a ready-to-work machine without the paperwork hassle.
