Frequently Asked Questions
The size of a digger is determined by its weight.
Diggers under 5 tons are classified as micro diggers, with the most common models ranging from 1 to 1.8 tons. These are primarily used for landscaping or small garden renovations.
Diggers under 15 tons are considered small diggers, with 5 to 8 tons being the mainstream. These are mainly used for trenching, road construction, and similar tasks.
YUFAN Machinery’s micro diggers include:
0.8 ton, 1 ton, 1.2 ton, 1.5 ton, 1.8 ton, 2.0 ton, 2.2 ton, 2.5 ton, and 3.0 ton models, and can be equipped with different engine brands according to your requirements.
The typical width range of a micro digger is as below:
▪️Narrow type (for confined spaces): approx. 80cm–100cm (e.g., YUFAN YFT10, YUFAN YFT12)
▪️Standard type: approx. 100cm–130cm (e.g., YUFAN YFT15, YUFAN YFT17, YUFAN YFT18)
Key influencing factors:
Tracked vs. wheeled: Tracked diggers are usually narrower, while wheeled ones may be slightly wider.
Expandable design: Some models (like YUFAN YFT10) feature retractable undercarriages, which can narrow the width to under 70cm to fit through tight doorways.

1. Start the engine: Insert the key and start the engine. Let it idle for a few minutes to allow oil to fully lubricate all parts.
Adjust the seat to a comfortable position and fasten the seatbelt.
2. Control levers:
A micro digger includes:
- Left joystick: Controls boom up/down and arm extension (push forward to lower the boom, pull back to lift).
- Right joystick: Controls bucket open/close and body rotation (move left/right to swing).
- Foot pedal/knob: Adjusts travel speed (some models support stepless speed control).
Typical controls include:
① Opening and closing the bucket
② Raising and lowering the boom
③ Extending and retracting the arm
④ Moving the tracks
3. Travel operation:
- Tracked digger: Push/pull left and right levers (e.g., push left lever forward = left track forward).
- Wheeled digger: Use a steering wheel or handle to control direction.
4. Digging operation:
Position: Align the digger with the digging point and keep it stable.
Lower the arm: Push the left joystick forward to lower the boom; use the right joystick to dig the bucket into the soil.
Scoop: Pull the right joystick back to close the bucket and left joystick back to lift the arm.
Swing & dump: Swing the body using the right joystick to the dump point and push the joystick forward to release the soil.

Zero tail swing diggers are designed with a counterweight that stays within the width of the tracks or undercarriage. It allows the digger to rotate 360 degrees without extending beyond the track width. The feature is particularly beneficial in confined or tight spaces with limited room to maneuver.
Tight tail swing excavators have a larger counterweight that may extend beyond the track width. Still, it provides significant benefits in confined areas compared to conventional excavators.
Micro diggers fall within the category of zero and tight tail swing diggers. At YUFAN Machinery, both categories are available. They are popular for landscaping, construction, and utility work in tight urban environments.
