Designed to excel in confined spaces, the DX17Z-7 zero tail swing and DX19-7 conventional mini-excavators from Develon are compact and Stage V compliant.

Both are powered by the Kubota D902 Stage V compliant diesel engine, which provides a gross power output of 12.1 kW (16.2 HP) at 2400 RPM, along with engine torque of up to 54.6 Nm at 1900 RPM.

Both models come with a standard 1.75 m boom and 1.03 m arm, with an optional longer 1.23 m arm available. The DX17Z-7 features a cast 180 kg counterweight as standard, with an additional 85 kg counterweight option for use with the longer arm. The tail swing radius in the DX17Z-7 is only 645 mm, ensuring maneuverability in tight spaces.

Cylinder guards protect the front assembly in both models, minimizing the risk of collisions and damage to hydraulic hoses.

Standard one- and two-way proportional flow control, coupled with quick coupler piping and retractable 230 mm tracks, ensure versatility and adaptability. The adjustable track width, controlled via a switch, enables operators to navigate narrow spaces and distribute weight evenly for increased stability while digging or lifting.

The DX17Z-7 is only available as a canopy machine, whilst the DX19-7 can be supplied with either a canopy or a cab that is equipped with a radio and heater as standard.
