Our 17VX-3 mini excavator rental combines small size with big performance with the highest breakout force in its class, the smallest front radius of 50″, plus an undercarriage that retracts from a working width of 50” to just under 39” for access through tight spots. Combined with an independent swing boom, the this mini excavator can fit into close confines and work with ease around obstacles.
Independent boom swing is one of the major benefits of a mini excavator over other excavation equipment. The main advantage of boom swing is the ability to dig around obstacles or along foundations, walls, and forms. A secondary advantage is cycling in areas too narrow for cab rotation.

- Repairing sewer lines

- Digging holes
- Making small trenches
