Now available at Mech-N-Air.

Introducing the KATO HD17V5 – a compact zero tail swing mini excavator engineered for maximum productivity in confined spaces. With its robust performance, cutting-edge safety features, and user-friendly design, the HD17V5 sets a new benchmark for versatility and operator comfort.

Work Smarter in Tight Spaces
The HD17V5 is built to excel in job sites where space is limited. Its extendable undercarriage (990–1300 mm) ensures exceptional stability during operation and effortless transport when retracted. Add to that a retractable dozer blade extension and the ability to skim close to ground level—and you’ve got a machine that thrives in narrow, tricky environments.

Built for Performance
Powered by a YANMAR 3TNV74 engine delivering 10.5 kW at 2,300 rpm and 51.8 Nm of torque, the HD17V5 tackles demanding excavation tasks with ease. With a bucket digging force of 16.4 kN and arm digging force of 9.6 kN, you’ll get serious work done—fast.

Choose from buckets ranging from 0.024 m³ to 0.055 m³ and enjoy a maximum operating weight of 1,780 kg for stable, powerful operation.

Designed for Operator Comfort
The HD17V5 isn’t just strong—it’s smart. The operator’s station has been reengineered with 10% more foot space, a retractable seat belt, ROPS-compliant 4-post canopy, cup holder, and even a 12V supply port. Because productivity increases when operators are comfortable and safe.

Safety Comes Standard
Safety is non-negotiable. An automatic parking brake is activated when the safety lock lever is raised, and an engine start system ensures operation only when controls are in neutral. With enhanced side stability (+7%), the HD17V5 protects both operator and job site.

Easy Maintenance, Lower Downtime
Routine servicing is a breeze thanks to a fully openable engine cover, easy-access fuel port, removable radiator side cover, and durable frame protection. Designed to minimize downtime and maximize ROI.
