Product Introduction
Overview & Portability
The DJ14 is a compact yet powerful mini excavator designed for versatility in tight spaces. Weighing just 810 kg, this lightweight machine features a transport length of 2,100 mm and width of 947 mm, making it ideal for indoor renovations, landscaping, and urban construction projects. With a ground pressure of only 32 kPa, it operates gently on sensitive surfaces while maintaining excellent stability. The rubber track option (180×72×37) ensures minimal ground disturbance, and the dozer blade adds multifunctionality for grading and backfilling tasks.
Digging Performance & Engine
Despite its compact size, the DJ14 delivers impressive digging capabilities with a maximum depth of 1,750 mm, radius of 3,040 mm, and height reach of 3,060 mm. Powered by a reliable Briggs & Stratton XR2100 gasoline engine producing 13.5 hp (8.6 kW), it features air-cooled technology for simplified maintenance. The engine's 3,600 rpm maximum speed and single-cylinder design ensure responsive power delivery, while the 6.6-liter fuel tank supports extended operational periods without frequent refueling interruptions.
Hydraulics & Efficiency
The DJ14 features a robust hydraulic system with a gear pump delivering 23.4 L/min flow at 25 MPa pressure, controlled by an 8-spool valve for precise operation. High-quality components from Jinzhou Shuangling and Liwo ensure durability, while R4K-310 travel and RMR-315 swing motors provide smooth maneuverability. With an exceptionally low fuel consumption rate of only 0.5–1.2 L/hour and minimal maintenance requirements, the DJ14 offers outstanding cost-efficiency for rental companies and contractors seeking reliable compact excavation solutions.

Applications
Landscaping & Green-space Renovation
Pass through 1.2-meter gateways and maneuver around delicate plantings without damaging a single blade of turf.
Excavate tree-planting pits to the exact depth required for root-ball placement.
Grade shallow drainage swales and dig trenches for French drain systems to support rain-garden installations.
Remove worn sod efficiently for immediate lawn replacement.
Utility & Irrigation Installation
Lay water, gas, fiber-optic or drip-irrigation lines faster than manual trenching equipment.
The 2.4-meter digging depth reaches below the frost line in most geographic regions.
The 400-millimeter bucket ensures consistent trench width for efficient backfilling and compaction.
The offset boom design allows trenching tight against existing pavement edges.
Indoor & Restricted-clearance Operations
Pass through standard doorways on non-marking rubber tracks that protect finished flooring.
Excavate basement floors to increase overhead clearance.
Demolish and remove interior concrete slabs using the hydraulic breaker.
Access multi-story parking facilities with 2.3-meter height restrictions for car-pool lane repairs.
Urban & Roadside Maintenance
Repair sidewalk sections, prepare pothole patches, and bore sign-post holes—completing work between traffic-light cycles.
Zero tail-swing geometry keeps the machine within traffic-cone boundaries.
Two-speed travel (0–4 km/h) maintains pace with walking crews.
Waterway, Drainage & Environmental Projects
Equip the 600-millimeter ditching bucket or hydraulic rake attachment.
Remove sediment from irrigation channels while water remains flowing.
Position rip-rap material for bank stabilization and erosion protection.
Break up thin concrete spillway structures and load removal debris directly into awaiting trucks.
Packaging & Shipping
Each 1.8-ton excavator is securely mounted on an export-certified, hot-dip galvanized steel skid and fully wrapped in multi-layer UV-resistant film. This sealed enclosure effectively blocks dust, salt spray, and moisture, ensuring that painted surfaces, glass, and hydraulic components remain in pristine condition upon arrival.
The integrated design—featuring built-in fork pockets and ramps—allows one operator to drive the machine directly into a 20GP or 40HQ container, eliminating loose pallets or separate parts. Once inside, the unit is anchored using a four-point chain system with ISO-standard tensioners, which firmly secures the undercarriage to the container floor and prevents any movement during ocean or rail transport.
