Tracked Zero Tail Excavator EZ36: Compact design and high performance

Get in and start working – with the EZ36, performance meets maximum efficiency. This zero tail excavator is ideal if compact dimensions are needed. Minimal rear overhang makes working along walls and other obstacles an easy task. The machine features intuitive operation using a joystick, display and jog dial, as well as a comfortable working environment. This leaves the operator in full control of the application. Configurable to meet a customer’s requirements, the EZ36 offers dealer-installed options, including a hydraulic thumb and rotating beacon.

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.

Intuitive operating concept

• The intuitive operating concept enables simple and comprehensive control of the excavator. The machine is operated using a joystick, jog dial and keypad. This makes accessing attachment and oil level settings for the additional control circuits quick and easy.

Optimized drive concept

• The well thought-out drive concept with optimized engine-pump management allows quick and precise control of the excavator. This makes up to 15 percent faster work cycles possible. The available engine versions are low in consumption and require no exhaust after-treatment.

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.

Zero Tail

• When space is limited: Pivot safely, even in the tightest of spaces or right next to the wall - with the Zerotail excavator without rear overhang, no problem.
• Optimal working in limited working conditions, high maneuverability and time savings are guaranteed.

Dirt-repellent travel gear

• Less dirt is accumulated in the slanted travel gear box and, due to its special method of construction, it is also easier to clean.

Custom-made paint finish

• All excavators by Wacker Neuson can be ordered personalized with special paint in the production process.

Hydraulic thumb

• The optional hydraulic thumb offers, beside a conventional bucket application, a grip function, which expands the spectrum of applications.
• With this additional grip function, material can be cleared away quite easily.

Flexible cylinder rod protection

• Protective cylinder guards made of plastic keep the cylinder rods of lifting arm, bucket and dipper stick cylinders safe from damage, increasing service life and can save significant costs. The cylinder guard material is flexible, so no permanent damage occurs upon contact with foreign objects. Work interruption due to replacement is eliminated.
