Minimal footprint, maximum versatility. Do you need a compact machine to achieve great results? Choose a 17G or 26G. Your small stature and rubber swing boom as well as the 360-deg. rotation let operators work in tight spaces and around obstacles with ease. But not only their size and shape make them such valuable assets. Remarkably quiet EPA Final Tier 4/EU Stage IV diesel engines meet rigid emission standards so that they can put these two at any time almost anywhere to work.
