Tracked Conventional Excavator ET20: Stability meets specially developed boom

The ET20 compact excavator not only shows what it can do with its powerful drive system, but also offers a variety of innovative features and options. The ET20 achieves excellent excavation results and stability thanks to its specially developed longer travel gear and boom. The hydraulically pilot-operated drive pedals allow the excavator to be controlled precisely with the feet.

Hydraulic telescopic travel gear with dozer blade extension

• The hydraulically telescoped travel gear with a max. outer width of 1300 mm gives stability. In no time, it can be retracted to a width of 990 mm. With the foldable dozer blade extension, this makes individual adjustment to the job site conditions possible. Meanwhile, the extension elements are always connected to the machine and thus do not get lost.

VDS Vertical Digging System

• The vertical digging system compensates for slopes of up to 15 degrees, making it possible to vertically excavate on a slope. This is not only ergonomic for the operator, but it also saves time and also means less excavated material.
• Up to 25 percent material and time savings when excavating and filling. Safe working and higher stability in sloping spaces.
• The same swing power over 360 degrees allows fatigue-free work with the seat position remaining the same.

Comfortable, fully glazed cab

• The large, fully glazed and tiltable cabin with roof window offers the operator an optimal 360° visibility of his work area. This gives the operator a good view of his working area, colleagues and any dangers. Meanwhile, available despite this.
• It can be easily disassembled for service and repair work. All hydraulic functions of the excavator meanwhile remain available despite this.

Innovative front windshield system

• The windshields can be adjusted to any condition on the construction site. Closed, they are water- and windproof. The upper front window can be pushed under the cabin roof. The lower pane serves as splash protection. The lower windshield slides behind the upper window, making it ideal for talking with colleagues. If necessary, both windows are pushed below the cabin roof, where they are stored safely.
• The two-part front window allows for optimal ventilation in the cabin in any weather. In addition, it makes it easier to communicate with the operator. A separate removal and storage of the window is a thing of the past.
• Significantly lower risk of damage or loss; higher level of operating comfort

Easy service and maintenance access

• Easy service, thanks to wide-opening engine hood, allows easy access to all parts.
• No disassembly of heavy parts necessary, additional easily replaceable wear parts.
• Quick and unrestricted access. Hydraulic and engine oil filters, air filter, water separator and also the tank filler neck are ideally accessible. Low service costs.

2 travel speeds

• The excavator is equipped with a second travel speed level as standard. This way, it can quickly switch positions on the construction site, saving valuable time.

Compact dimensions

• High level of safety during transportation, cost and time savings. The excavator scores points with a low entry height and reduced external dimensions due to the intelligent component arrangement, providing higher stability thanks to the low center of gravity.
• Whether during transportation or in tight spaces: thanks to its compact design, the excavator can easily be taken to your next job site. And on the construction site, the machine can maneuver anywhere easily and quickly, even in confined spaces - for high efficiency in every application.

Numerous attachments

• Thanks to the optional additional control circuits, our excavators can be equipped with a variety of attachments. This way, you can increase your application options in no time and thus increase the utilization of your excavator.

2 lifting lugs on the roof

• The machine can be moved on the construction site very easily without problems using a crane. Also, loading and unloading the excavator from the truck can be done quickly.

Thermal resistance

• The excavator can work under full load up to an ambient temperature of 45°C/113°F. The stable temperature level results in a longer service life for the hydraulic components and increases productivity.
• Lower temperature level - longer life, work without loss of performance.

Powerful drive system

• Thanks to the high performance of the drive system, the maximum power of the excavator is available at every point of operation. This brings up to 30% higher power for an even better performance.

Laterally raised cast bumper

• The extremely sturdy raised bumper made of massive cast iron prevents damage to the rear, thus contributing to the long service life of the machine. Along with the high quality, it is also visually impressive as a modern design element.
