HT08 0.8 Ton Mini Excavator – 700mm Wide, Digs 1130mm Deep
700mm wide. 0.8 tons. Fits through a standard doorway. Digs 1130mm deep. The HT08 does real work in tight spaces — not just get in, but get the job done.
What you can do with it
• Dig trenches up to 1200mm deep — enough for most residential utilities, drainage, and foundation work
• Break concrete with a hydraulic hammer attachment — interior demolition, sidewalk repair, small slabs
• Clear land, dig holes, move material — landscaping, orchard work, nursery operations
• Work indoors — fits through standard doorways, turns in tight spaces (1100mm swing radius)
What you’re buying

| 14Mpa hydraulic system | Smooth, precise control when working inches from walls |
Why choose the HT08 over a smaller 0.6-ton machine?
The HT06 is narrower (700mm), but it’s limited to light work. The HT08 gives you:
• Deeper digging (1130mm vs 1000mm) — the difference between hitting utility depth or not
• More power for attachments — runs breakers and augers effectively, not struggling
• Better stability — 800kg vs 600kg means less tipping when lifting heavy material
Choose the HT06 if you only do indoor light work. Choose the HT08 if you also need to dig, break, and clear on outdoor jobs.
What attachments can you run?
• Standard digging bucket (included)
• Narrow trenching bucket
• Hydraulic breaker (concrete)
• Auger (post holes, tree planting)
• Grapple (material handling)
Quick coupler means you can swap them without tools.
So, is the HT08 the right fit?
You need the HT08 if:
• Your job sites have doorways, gates, or narrow access points
• You need to dig deeper than 1 meter
• You want one machine that does indoor and outdoor work
• You don’t want to rent equipment for every small job
You might want a larger machine if:
• Your average digging depth exceeds 1.5 meters
• You’re moving heavy material constantly (over 500kg loads)
• Your job sites have no access restrictions

Will the HT08 fit through a standard doorway or garden gate?
Yes. Machine width is 700mm, adjustable to 780mm. Most residential doorways are 760-820mm wide. It fits without removing doors or fence panels. The 360° zero-tail swing (1100mm radius) lets you turn in tight spaces without scraping walls.
How do I transport the HT08?
At 800kg operating weight, tow it on a standard trailer behind a pickup truck. No CDL or heavy-duty hauler required for most jurisdictions. Dimensions: 1967mm × 2025mm – fits on smaller trailers.
What jobs can the HT08 actually do?
Four main areas: residential landscaping (leveling, tree holes, fences), agriculture (irrigation trenches, drainage, weeding between fruit trees), indoor demolition (concrete breaking through standard doors), municipal utilities (fiber-optic, gas, and water lines along narrow walkways). Max digging depth: 1130mm. Max reach: 2300mm.
What's the difference between the HT08 and a 1-ton excavator?
HT08 is narrower (700mm vs 900mm+) and lighter (700kg vs 1000kg+). Better access through doorways and gates. Easier to tow. Lower ground pressure (19Kpa) – won't tear up lawns. Trade-off: less digging depth (1130mm vs 1500mm+) and lower lifting capacity. Choose HT08 if access is your constraint. Choose larger if you dig deeper than 1.2 meters regularly.
