2.6 Ton Digger

Product Introduction

Robust Compact Excavator for Heavy-Duty Performance

The XE26U is a powerful mini excavator designed for demanding construction and utility applications requiring substantial digging capability. Weighing 2,680 kg with a 0.06 m³ bucket capacity, this robust machine delivers impressive performance metrics including a maximum digging depth of 2,800 mm, lifting height of 4,390 mm, and unloading height of 3,120 mm. Its extensive 4,750 mm digging radius enables efficient work cycles across large areas. With dual-speed travel (2/3.1 km/h) and excellent ≤30% gradeability, the XE26U navigates challenging slopes confidently. Standard 60° left/50° right side swing functionality enhances versatility for working flush against obstacles and in confined corners.

Reliable Kubota Diesel Power

Powering the XE26U is a dependable Kubota diesel engine producing 15.4 kW maximum output with advanced water-cooling technology for optimal thermal management. This fuel-efficient powertrain runs on standard diesel, delivering consistent performance while the generous 33-liter fuel tank ensures extended operation periods between refueling. The 22-liter hydraulic oil tank supports a responsive hydraulic system for precise control. Optional undercarriage expansion enhances stability on uneven terrain, making this excavator ideal for professional contractors requiring continuous, reliable productivity in construction, landscaping, and municipal maintenance applications.

Spacious Design and Superior Mobility

The XE26U balances substantial capability with practical dimensions—4,190 mm length, 1,500 mm width, and 2,580 mm height—facilitating transport while accommodating a spacious operator environment. The 1,560 mm by 300 mm bulldozer blade with significant lift capability enables efficient grading and backfilling operations. Weighing under 3 tons, this excavator bridges the gap between compact agility and serious working power, offering the digging depth and reach typically found on larger machines. The result is a versatile, professional-grade mini excavator that maximizes productivity on job sites where space and performance requirements demand the best of both worlds.

Applications

Urban & Municipal Operations

Designed for operation in restricted urban spaces, the XE26 features a width of 936mm and minimal tail swing, enabling safe and efficient work in residential zones, parks, and narrow streets. It delivers precise performance in utility trenching, garden installation, and sidewalk repairs, with minimal disruption to surrounding infrastructure. A balanced breakout force ensures effective performance in diverse urban soil types.

Agriculture & Land Management

A capable asset for farming and land maintenance, the XE26 efficiently handles irrigation channel digging, pond and stable cleaning, and orchard or vineyard upkeep. With 30% gradeability for stable operation on slopes and a 2,257mm digging depth, it meets the majority of agricultural earthmoving and water management needs.

Industrial & Material Handling

The compact design and agility of the XE26 make it a practical solution for industrial environments. It supports material transport, equipment setup, and maintenance in confined factory, warehouse, and yard areas, enabling efficient space utilization and operational continuity.

Packaging & Shipping

Global Transit and Export Packaging

Our 2-ton mini excavators are delivered internationally using professionally certified packing systems. We provide two flexible shipping configurations tailored to different transit requirements:

Option 1: Complete Enclosure

Each unit is secured to a reinforced steel pallet and completely encased within a sealed protective framework with overhead cover. This method delivers the highest degree of defense against weather exposure and handling impacts, making it optimal for long-distance maritime freight.

Option 2: Space-Optimized Component Packaging

To improve container efficiency, selected assemblies are carefully disassembled and packed in industrial-grade protective materials. This space-saving approach allows greater loading capacity per container while maintaining component safety throughout transit.

All shipments are processed by specialized logistics teams using standard 20ft or 40ft containers. Each load is stabilized with advanced tie-down systems and custom bracing to eliminate movement during ocean and land transport, ensuring equipment arrives in fully operational condition.
