DOOSAN has added to its mini-excavator offering with the launch of the two-tonne class DX20Z-7.
The model is described by the manufacturer as an ‘ideal solution’ for confined space and indoor sites, offering a zero tail swing design and a detachable canopy for low height entrance.
The optimised hydraulic system in the DX20Z-7 is said to make the best possible use of the engine power available from the Yanmar 3TNV70 3-cylinder Stage V diesel engine providing an output of 10.3 kW (13.8 HP) at 2200 RPM.
In its standard configuration, the machine has an operating weight of 1,995kg. With the optional 1.1m long arm, the maximum digging depth of the DX20Z-7 is 2,345mm, the maximum dump height is 2,750mm, and the maximum reach at ground level is 3,975mm.
Doosan explained that the high lifting capacity and ‘superior’ dumping height offered by the DX20Z-7 ensures that loading trucks is an easy process, while the reach at ground level reduces the need to keep repositioning when digging.
When at its fully retracted width of 950mm, the retractable undercarriage allows the machine to go through narrow spaces. When fully expanded to 1,360mm, Doosan added that it provides ‘optimum stability’, especially when working over the side.
Doosan revealed there is ‘ample’ space for feet with a flat floor for easy cleaning, ergonomic pedals and easy access to all controls. Visibility to the front is boosted by a high luminescent LED lamp on the boom.
