The micro digger hire we provides is with one of the best known makes of micro digger - the 1 Tonne Kubota. Even though it is small in size it certainly punches above its weight.
It is perfect to operate in small spaces as its adjustable tracks means that is can maneuvre into spaces that many other diggers simply can't get to and as a result make mechanical digging not possible. Once in place the tracks can then be opened out to provide a more stable base to work from allowing it to utilise its pwer and get the job done.
Our micro digger provides impressive power it also operates with low emissions too. The design of the digger has been though through so that the hydraulic pipes are hidden to minimse damage of them when in tight spaces. With quick release bucket pins changing the end attahcment is quick and easy enabling maximum working time to be achieved.
Our 1.5 tonne mini digger is a similar beast, able to provide exceptional power along with versatility, practical design along with comfort and safetl features in use.
Power is delivered through a diesel engine that still provides exceptionally low emissions.
This model also has adjustable tracks to enable it to get to work where other diggers can't get to.
As a heavier machine, additional safety features are built in to protect the operator such as a tip and roll over protective structure. However, also with satefy the cabin has a large amount of legroom to accomodate the adjustable suspension seat which means that you will be able to work for longer without feeling uncomfortable or fatugued.
Excavating large areas even with small diggers is much easier than manual alternatives done by hand. Even in residential aeras their operation is relatively quieter than other digger models, so your customer project can be done quickly without frustrating or annoying the neighbours any more than necessary.
With the diggers able to access tight spots they are ideal for groundwork projects such as ground excavation for driveway and patio base layers, and ground levelling.
For garden with water drainage issues a micro excavator is ideal for creating new trenches for laying new drainage pipework and can also speed up uprooting and clearing small trees and shrubs.
Our diggers undergo safety checks before each hire to ensure that all possible risks are taken into account, as well as having regular maintenance checks on the oil and hydraulics levels.
If you are a landscaping company you may be in a position of deciding whether hiring or buying is right for your business. Clearly costs will play a part whether you are in a position to part with a large upfront lump sum or commit to a longer term finance package will impact your cash situation. The other consideration of owning your own vehicle is the ongoing service and mainteance costs. However, you are more than likely aware of those from the other vehicles you have in your business but the main consideration should be around the operation of your digger. Do you already have someone, or several people, in your team who can opperate a digger effectively and safely? If not then there is the training cost and the possible risk that when they are offf sick or worse decide to leave your employment you have a very expensive peice of equipment sitting dormant. How will using a digger impact the insurance costs for your business?
