Wacker Neuson ET42 excavator is a 4-ton unit with a three-point bucket linkage that offers a 200-degree angle of rotation. A hydraulic quick connect system works from the cab, and a diverter valve on the auxiliary hydraulic line allows the operator to switch between thumb and another attachment without disconnecting hoses.

The mini excavator is powered by a 48-horsepower Perkins 403J diesel, and its operating weight is 8.600 pounds. Bucket digging force is 9,850 lb.-ft., and maximum digging depth is 11 feet 6 inches.

The excavator is available with a cab or canopy. The cab features standard air-conditioning, and the floor is ergonomically designed so the operator’s feet rest at a comfortable angle. It has a 3.5-inch color display.
