Tracked Conventional Excavator ET16: Best in class in terms of cabin size

In addition to its comfortable cabin, the ET16 also impresses with a compact and sturdy design. With a shipping weight of less than 1.6 metric tons, it can be quickly and easily transported from one construction site to the next. It is the ideal companion for any application due to the simple and safe operation. With the load-sensing hydraulic system (LUDV), the joystick movements always remain the same for the operator so that he can work comfortably and fatigue-free.

Powerful drive system with LUDV

The powerful drive system combines with a load-sensing hydraulic system (LUDV) to deliver quick working cycles, greater application flexibility, and easier control for comfortable and fatigue-free operation of the excavator. No matter what the load to be moved, the control movements on the joystick stay the same. Along with increased operating comfort, this results in a performance plus, while simultaneously reducing fuel consumption.

Hydraulic telescopic travel gear with dozer blade extension

The hydraulically telescoped travel gear with a max. outer width of 1300 mm gives stability. In no time, it can be retracted to a width of 990 mm. With the foldable dozer blade extension, this makes individual adjustment to the job site conditions possible. Meanwhile, the extension elements are always connected to the machine and thus do not get lost.

Large ergonomic comfort cab

The ergonomically optimized comfort cab offers very good 360° visibility, plenty of legroom and headroom and a wide entry. This promotes a high level of safety and flexibility in the work space, adjusted to the individual needs of the operator.
