Product Introduction
QK16R 0.98 t gasoline micro-excavator driven by 8.6 kW RATO R420D single-cylinder, air-cooled powerplant grants 1.69 m digging depth, 2.56 m digging height and 3.06 m reach while occupying only 958 mm overall width; zero-tail-swing geometry plus retractable undercarriage allow unit to pass through 1 m garden gates, standard doorways or between greenhouse rows without scuffing turf, making it ideal for backyard pools, basement dig-outs, urban utility repairs andlandscape sculpting where space is precious and surface protection mandatory.
Strength and uptime are engineered into every joint: robot-welded boom and dipper deliver eight-percent higher structural strength, internal hose routing eliminates snagging and burst risk, one-piece extended & thickened forged chassis resists twisting, and unique upside-down cylinder placement provides superior sealing, wear and corrosion resistance under high-pressure cycles; maintenance is simplified by a gas-assist flip-up rear hood that exposes engine, filters and hydraulic components at ground level, cutting daily check time to minutes and keeping the 20 L oil reservoir clean for longer service intervals.
Operator environment combines comfort with control: LED non-halogen work lights give dawn-to-dusk visibility, hydraulic-pilot intelligent joystick lets one finger command all functions, spacious foot platform and sliding seat reduce fatigue, and dual-speed 0–1.8 km/h travel motor with 15 % gradeability keeps pace with crews on slopes or pavement; quick-hitch plate accepts 0.03 m³ standard bucket plus optional 200–600 mm trenching, grading or ditch-cleaning attachments, while side-swing boom and 60° left/right slew create parallel trenches without repositioning—perfect for irrigation lines, cable burying, asphalt shaving, indoor demolition and roadside touch-ups, all shipped line-fresh in an export-ready, hot-dip-galvanized steel cradle vacuum-sealed for salt-spray protection.

Applications
Landscaping & Green-Space Projects
Navigate through 1.2-meter gates and work around delicate plantings without damaging turf.
Dig accurately sized tree pits to match root-ball specifications.
Create shallow swales and French-drain trenches for rain garden installations.
Efficiently remove old turf for quick lawn replacement.
Utility & Irrigation Installation
Lay water, gas, fiber-optic, or drip irrigation lines faster than walk-behind trenchers.
Reach a digging depth of 2.4 meters, sufficient to go below the frost line in most regions.
A 400-mm bucket ensures consistent trench width for rapid backfilling and compaction.
The side-swing boom allows trenching tight against curbs and paved surfaces.
Indoor & Low-Clearance Applications
Enter standard doorways on non-marking rubber tracks.
Excavate basement floors to increase headroom.
Break and remove interior concrete slabs using a hydraulic breaker.
Operate within 2.3-meter parking decks for infrastructure repairs.
Road & Municipal Maintenance
Complete tasks such as sidewalk panel replacement, pothole preparation, and signpost drilling within short work windows.
Zero tail-swing design allows operation within coned-off lanes.
Dual-speed travel (0–4 km/h) enables smooth pacing with crew on foot.
Ditch, Canal & Environmental Maintenance
Easily switch to a 600-mm ditching bucket or hydraulic rake.
Clear silt from irrigation channels without prior draining.
Place rip-rap accurately for bank stabilization.
Break thin concrete spillways and load debris directly into trucks.
Packaging & Shipping
Worldwide Shipping, Factory-Fresh Guarantee
Export-ready steel base
Every 1.8-ton machine is bolted to a hot-dip-galvanized skid and sealed in multilayer UV-proof film. Dust, salt spray, and deck moisture are locked out, so paint, glass, and hydraulics reach you line-fresh.
Drop-in container loading
Fork pockets and built-in ramps let one operator drive the unit straight into a 20GP or 40HQ—no loose pallets, no stray parts. Four-corner chains and ISO-rated tensioners anchor the undercarriage to the container floor, eliminating movement on rough seas or long rail hauls.
