2023 Brandt Mineral Processing Excavators Compact 17G

2023 Brandt Mineral Processing Excavators Compact 17G

Compact, yet highly capable, the 17G Compact Excavator do-it-all stands tall on a wide range of jobsites. In fact, it may well be the difference maker you need to put more opportunities within reach, and more profit in your pocket. Its retractable undercarriage and foldable blade narrow to just 0.98 m (3 ft. 3 in.), letting you take hydraulic muscle to places that might otherwise require manual labor. Noticeably quiet EPA Final Tier 4/EU Stage IV diesel engine meets rigid emission standards, so you can put it to work almost any place, any time.

Features may include:

• Meets EPA Final Tier 4 (FT4)/EU Stage IV engine standards without an aftertreatment system, delivering a seamless operator experience with no machine-performance interruptions.

• New low-effort pilot-control levers provide smooth, predictable fingertip operation.

• Variable-width undercarriage, reduced-tail-swing design, and independent swing boom allow the 17G to navigate narrow openings and work in tight quarters with ease.

• High-torque fuel-efficient diesels meet EPA Final Tier 4/EU Stage IV emission standards without after treatment devices — reducing maintenance and expense.

• Heavy-duty side-by-side coolers enhance efficiency in high-ambient or -altitude working conditions.

• New display shows engine hours and fuel level.

• The ergonomically designed operator station won’t cramp your legs, or your style. Seat and controls are optimally positioned to accommodate even larger operators.

• Nearly unobstructed visibility provides a commanding view of the surrounding jobsite.

• Go from backhoe- to excavator-style controls with just a twist of your wrist. Control pattern selector valve is conveniently located in a compartment beneath the seat and includes a sight glass that displays the selected pattern.

• Low-effort pilot controls deliver exceptionally smooth, combined-function performance. So even unfamiliar operators become proficient more quickly.

• Side-by-side coolers resist trash buildup and allow easier core cleanout. Access is quick and convenient.

• No tools are needed to access daily or periodic checkpoints. Hinged steel doors swing open wide, for quick and easy service.

• Hydraulic-fluid sight gauge and see-through engine-coolant reservoir allow quick checks at a glance.

• Variable-width undercarriage and foldable blade can be hydraulically retracted to navigate narrow pathways and tight quarters, then easily repositioned for solid stability.

• Rubber tracks’ unique steel cores resist cracking. Large-diameter drive sprockets and track idlers further increase undercarriage durability.

• Steel hydraulic lines are clamped securely; Cordura® covering on rubber hoses provides extra durability.

• Available hydraulic-activated thumb helps retain material in the bucket and is a valuable addition for hardscape tasks such as setting stones.

• Worksite Pro augers can be equipped with numerous sizes of rock, heavy-duty, standard, and tree/shrub bits.

• Bust through blacktop, concrete, or other hard surfaces with a Worksite Pro breaker. Optional window screens help guard the cab and operator from flying debris.
