The Sizes of Mini Excavators
There are three main size ranges of mini excavator models: small, medium, and large. The distinguishing factor between these three categories is the operating weight of the machine with small models ranging from 2,000-10,000 lbs, medium from 10,000-20,000 lbs, and large models exceeding 20,000 lbs.
Small mini excavators make up more than half of the industry-wide selection of models. These machines generally range between 5-10 feet in terms of dig depth, 6-11 feet in dump height, and 10-40 horsepower (hp). The smaller models on the market are excellent options for projects that require the ability to work in tight spaces or when the foundation is fragile and a lower operating weight is needed.

The medium-size range of compact excavators is substantially larger and more powerful than its smaller counterparts. These models reach dig depths and dump heights up to 15 feet 9 inches and 21 feet 1 inch respectively, to go along with engine power topping out at 74hp. Capable of handling most projects, this range of machines can at times outperform the large class while maintaining a lighter weight.
The large range of mini excavators achieves dig depths of over 17 feet and a maximum dump height of 19 feet 2 inches and varies between 69-74hp. Although only eight models of this class are on the market, they are extremely capable machines and are best for jobs requiring power not reached by the lighter weight ranges.
The Most Important Mini Excavator Specs
Before doing our deep dive into the specs and sizes of each brand’s selection of mini excavators, we want to focus on providing the most useful information for choosing the right machine. In today’s guide, we focus on four main categories of specs: operating weight, maximum dig depth, maximum dump height, and engine power.
Along with overall engine power, operating weight is the main dictator of the amount of stress applied to the surrounding environment. However, operating weight does not factor in attachments to the machine, fuel, or the operator. For this reason, lighter equipment is better if it still gets the job done, and is often used in situations requiring minimal disturbance such as working on golf courses or funeral homes.
Maximum dig depth is an important measurement for mini excavators. This spec shows how deep the excavator can dig with the boom, stick, and bucket all extended downwards. Maximum dump height is how high the bucket can be safely dumped. This is especially important when loading materials onto vehicles such as dump trucks, as you need to be sure your machine can clear the sides of the truck.
Horsepower is the total amount of power the machine’s engine can generate. This can determine the effectiveness of a piece of equipment and the speed at which it can achieve movements such as lifts, dumps, or driving. However, engine power is occasionally misleading because more efficient hydraulic systems can provide similar results even at lower total horsepower.

With models ranging from 2,593-19,600 lbs, they provide machines for any reasonably sized project. However, they do not manufacture any large compact excavators. Bobcat is an excellent choice if you know the exact specs required for your project, as they’re likely to have a model that will fit you perfectly.

Wacker Neuson
With a wide selection of 12 models, including at least one in all three weight classes, Wacker Neuson mini excavators are competent machines. They provide three series of mini excavators to suit any project: tracked conventional tail (ET), zero tail (EZ), and wheeled (EW). Although there are distinct advantages to each, perhaps the most important competitive edge comes with the EZ series. With minimal rear overhang, you can easily work in confined spaces or near obstacles.
