Available for hire from our South Geelong yard, this excavator is particularly well-suited to picking up rocks, shifting heavy materials and moving them safely around sites – thanks to its rock grapple attachment. Whether you’re working on a rural property, farm track, driveway or home project, this machine gives you control, reach and lifting power without the bulk of larger earthmoving equipment.
