Wacker Neuson EZ26 Tracked Zero Tail Excavator

EZ26 Tracked Zero Tail Excavator: designed for job site flexibility

The EZ26 compact excavator combines modern design, flexibility, and operator-friendly features. Its lightweight build allows for easy transport, while an innovative front windshield improves ventilation and job site communication.

Description

The EZ26 Zero Tail Excavator is a versatile and efficient tracked excavator designed to meet the demands of modern construction and landscaping projects. As a 2-ton mini excavator, it combines compact dimensions with powerful performance, making it an ideal choice for tasks in confined spaces. Its zero-tail swing design enhances maneuverability, allowing operators to work efficiently without the risk of damaging surrounding structures.

Compact Design with Zero Tail Swing Advantage

The EZ26 features a zero-tail swing design, meaning the upper structure of the excavator rotates within the width of its tracks. This design is particularly beneficial in urban environments or on job sites with limited space, as it minimizes the risk of accidental contact with nearby objects or structures. The compact nature of this mini excavator allows for seamless operation in tight areas, enhancing productivity and safety.

Powerful Performance in a Compact Package

Despite its compact size, the EZ26 zero tail excavator does not compromise on performance. Equipped with a robust diesel engine, it delivers reliable power for various applications. The machine’s hydraulics are engineered for precision and efficiency, ensuring smooth operation across tasks such as digging, trenching, and material handling. This balance of size and power positions the EZ26 as a leading 2-ton mini excavator in its class.

Enhanced Operator Comfort and Safety

Operator comfort is a priority in the design of the EZ26. The spacious cab offers excellent visibility, reducing blind spots and increasing job site safety. Ergonomically placed controls and a user-friendly interface contribute to reduced operator fatigue, allowing for longer periods of efficient work. Additionally, the cab’s design facilitates easy entry and exit, accommodating operators of varying sizes.

Efficient Transportation and Mobility

One of the standout features of the EZ26 zero tail excavator is its transportability. With an operating weight ranging from approximately 5,668 to 7,745 pounds, it can be transported using a standard 3.5-ton trailer, even with attachments included. This ease of mobility ensures that contractors can quickly move the excavator between job sites, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.

Advanced Features for Improved Efficiency

The EZ26 is equipped with several advanced features designed to enhance operational efficiency:

  • Auto-Stop Function: This feature reduces unnecessary diesel consumption by automatically shutting down the engine after a predetermined period of inactivity, leading to lower fuel costs and reduced environmental impact.
  • Optimized Hydraulics: The excavator’s hydraulic system is electronically controlled, allowing for precise adjustments based on the task at hand. This optimization ensures that the machine delivers the right amount of power when needed, improving overall efficiency.
  • Large Ergonomic Comfort Cab: The cab is designed with operator comfort in mind, featuring ample legroom, adjustable seating, and climate control options. Such amenities contribute to a more comfortable working environment, which can enhance productivity.
  • Innovative Two-Part Front Windshield: The front windshield design allows for improved ventilation and communication on the job site. The upper part of the windshield can be slid under the cab roof, providing an open-air feel when desired.

Versatility Across Applications

The EZ26 Zero Tail Excavator is suitable for a wide range of applications, including:

  • Urban Construction: Its compact size and zero tail swing design make it ideal for navigating tight urban spaces without compromising performance.
  • Landscaping: The excavator’s precision and versatility allow for efficient execution of landscaping tasks, from digging to material placement.
  • Utility Installation: The machine’s ability to operate in confined spaces makes it perfect for installing utilities such as water lines, electrical conduits, and drainage systems.

The EZ26 Zero Tail Excavator stands out as a compact yet powerful solution for various excavation needs. Its combination of a zero-tail swing design, robust performance, operator-centric features, and transportability makes it a valuable asset for contractors and operators alike. Whether working in urban environments or on expansive job sites, the EZ26 delivers reliability, efficiency, and versatility, solidifying its position as a top choice in the mini excavator market.
