A true Zero House Swing mini excavator with big stability and power—all in a sub-2-ton package.
The E20z offers a maximum digging depth of 2 544 mm, a digging force of 12.6 kN, and a bucket force of 18.3 kN, making it a top performer in its class.
Adjustable double-acting AUX1 with quick couplers and a load-sensing torque pump ensure smooth operation and optimal performance across various attachments.
The Smart Flow system optimizes hydraulic flow and pressure, delivering power exactly where it’s needed, improving efficiency and accuracy.
The E20z features up to four independent AUX lines: AUX1 | General-purpose functions AUX2 | Supporting functions (rotation) AUX3 | Clamshell bucket diverter AUX4 | Tilting coupler control AUX5 | Hydraulic coupler control
The Advanced Selectable Auxiliary Control (A-SAC) system allows operators to adjust joystick paddle control patterns and AUX flow settings to match their needs.
The Stage V engine delivers 10.1 kW at 2 200 rpm, ensuring strong performance with low emissions.
The only machine in its class with a cab under 2 tons with true Zero House Swing (ZHS), providing exceptional maneuverability in confined spaces.
Choose the right arm configuration to match your specific job requirements.
The undercarriage adjusts from 1 360 mm to 980 mm, enabling better access to narrow areas while maintaining stability.
Proportional fingertip auxiliary and boom swing offset controls ensure smooth and accurate operation.
A 980 mm dozer blade with two 190 mm extensions provides enhanced stability and easy ground leveling.
Reduces fuel consumption and noise by automatically lowering engine speed when controls are not in use.
Easily switch between travel speeds for precise maneuvering and faster repositioning.
Simplifies maintenance and enhances security with easy access.
Improved lift point positioning and integrated upper structure tie-downs make transportation simple and secure.
Reduce strain and improve comfort during long workdays.
Premium joysticks provide a smooth, controlled operating experience.
A powerful LED system ensures clear visibility for working in low-light conditions.
The standard TOPS/ROPS/FOPS canopy or optional heated cab offers safety and comfort in any environment.
A more accessible entry and exit design makes operating the E20z more convenient.
A larger glass area and optimized ergonomics provide a clear, unobstructed view of the worksite.
Metal covers open effortlessly for quick and easy maintenance.
The hydraulic oil level is visible from outside, ensuring fast and hassle-free inspections.
Upgrade for added comfort during long hours of operation.
Low noise, reduced vibrations, and an AM/FM/DAB radio with hands-free phone capability keep operators focused and comfortable.
Machines in one range are compared against each other — these are the four figures the choice usually comes down to.
Compactness without giving up comfort or performance: Zero House Swing even with a cab, best-in-class stability for a conventional machine, low-effort joysticks and autoshift travel motors.

The design decisions that determine where the machine can work and what you can hang on it.
An extension of zero tail swing: the front corners of the upper structure are brought inside the swing circle too, and the boom swing cylinder does not protrude when digging parallel to a wall. In practice the machine works right up against obstacles — in backyards, in urban areas and anywhere a bigger machine simply will not fit.
A flow-sharing main control valve with a load-sensing pump: pressure and flow go exactly where they are needed. Hence fast cycle times with smooth control. Boom and dipper stick cylinder cushioning — unique in this class — removes the shock at the end of travel.
The Selectable Auxiliary Control (SAC) system lets you customise the control pattern for a given attachment and switch the lines between boom and arm; it is an integral part of the AUX4 option. Geith, Klac and Lehnhoff hydraulic couplers are supported, Lehnhoff with optional tilting adapters.
The whole range side by side — you can see what each step up actually buys.
