Description

Wacker Neuson ET20: Compact Power with Big Performance

Built for Tight-Space Productivity

The ET20 gives contractors the strength of a 2 ton mini excavator while staying compact enough to work in confined areas. Because it combines strong digging force, stable traction, and efficient hydraulics, this machine keeps production moving on urban construction, landscaping, and utility projects. As a dependable mini excavator, it delivers precision and speed that save time on every job.

Diesel Power and Efficient Hydraulics

The ET20 runs on a fuel-efficient diesel mini excavator engine that produces high torque while keeping emissions low. Its advanced hydraulic system supports smooth control, so operators dig, lift, and grade with accuracy. With a digging depth of more than 8 feet and strong breakout force, this machine handles tough ground conditions without slowing down.

  • Reliable diesel engine with optimized cooling for long shifts
  • Advanced hydraulics for responsive performance
  • Over 8 feet of digging depth for versatile applications
  • Breakout force that drives through demanding excavation tasks

Compact Design with Adjustable Undercarriage

Contractors choose the ET20 for agility as well as power. Its adjustable undercarriage allows the frame to narrow for tight access and expand for stability during operation. As a compact excavator, it balances reach and lift capacity with a footprint that works in residential areas or crowded sites. The reinforced tracked undercarriage keeps traction strong across soil, gravel, and uneven terrain.

  • Adjustable undercarriage for both access and support
  • Durable tracked design for confident mobility
  • Balanced weight distribution for safe lifting
  • Compact frame that fits restricted worksites

Operator Comfort and Control

The ET20 focuses on comfort to keep operators productive during long hours. Its ergonomic cab design offers excellent visibility, intuitive joystick controls, and reduced vibration. Contractors stay in control whether trenching, grading, or working close to walls.

  • Spacious cab with wide visibility
  • Joystick controls for precise handling
  • Adjustable seating to reduce fatigue
  • Low vibration and noise for operator focus

Built for Versatility and Durability

The ET20 adapts to multiple applications with ease. Compatible with buckets, augers, and grading tools, it performs beyond excavation alone. Its rugged build ensures reliability on demanding jobs while reducing maintenance costs.

  • Reinforced construction built for long service life
  • Multiple attachment options for jobsite flexibility
  • Durable components that lower downtime
  • Versatile design for trenching, grading, and material handling

Why Choose the ET20?

  • Strength of a 2 ton mini excavator in a compact footprint
  • Fuel-efficient diesel mini excavator engine with low emissions
  • Smooth hydraulics for precise, efficient operation
  • Ergonomic cab with operator comfort and visibility
