Built for Sites Where Width Matters
Walk onto most residential job sites and the first question is always the same: "Can it fit through the gate?" The HT18-5 measures 1050mm across the tracks – not the narrowest in its class, but narrow enough to get through most equipment gates and work in confined backyards.
Once you're inside, the 75° left boom swing makes a real difference. Most 1.8-ton machines offer 50-60° of swing. That extra 15-25° means you can dig a trench parallel to a wall and still swing the arm to dump into a cart – without constantly repositioning the tracks. On a tight site, that saves you dozens of movements per day.
The machine is powered by a Kubota D1105 diesel engine, producing 14.2kW. Kubota engines are known for reliability, fuel efficiency, and cold-start performance. If you have specific regional requirements, we also offer Perkins (14.7kW) and Laidong (18.4kW) options.
Digging depth is 2.05 meters – deep enough for residential utility lines, drainage, foundation footings, and stump removal. The 0.06m³ bucket is sized for efficient earthmoving without overloading the machine. With 1800kg operating weight and 14KN bucket breakout force, it handles compacted soil and clay without struggling.
The HT18-5 is EPA and Euro 5 compliant. That means it's ready for import and operation in North America and Europe – no waiting for certification approvals or customs delays.

Frequently Asked Questions
How wide is the HT18-5? Will it fit through a gate?
The machine is 1050mm wide (1.05 meters). It will fit through most equipment gates and larger garden gates. Measure your access point – if you have a standard pedestrian gate (80-90cm wide), consider a smaller model like the HT10B (830mm retracted).
What's the advantage of the 75° left boom swing?
Most mini excavators in this class offer 50-60° of boom swing. The HT18-5 gives you 75° to the left – which means you can dig a trench parallel to a wall and still swing the arm to load a cart, without constantly turning the tracks. On a tight residential site, that saves you dozens of repositioning moves per day.
What engine options are available?
Standard is a Kubota D1105 (14.2kW). We also offer Perkins (14.7kW) and Laidong (18.4kW) options. The machine is EPA and Euro 5 compliant regardless of engine choice.
How deep can the HT18-5 dig?
Maximum digging depth is 2050mm (2.05 meters) – deep enough for residential utility lines, drainage, foundation footings, and stump removal.
What attachments can I use?
The HT18-5 accepts standard mini excavator attachments – digging buckets (various widths), hydraulic breakers, augers, grading blades, and grapples. Quick-hitch systems are available.
