Yanmar Compact Equipment, a well-established construction equipment manufacturer based in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, has launched its latest mini excavator, the ViO35-7. With major upgrades in productivity, configuration, and operator experience, the ViO35-7 is a robust improvement over its predecessor. The company emphasizes that this model is designed for a wide range of job sites, including construction, rental, utilities, and landscaping.
At the heart of the ViO35-7 is a 24.4-horsepower engine, paired with a true zero tail swing, which allows for excellent maneuverability in tight spaces. One of the most exciting features of this new model is its 360-degree visibility, giving operators a full view of their surroundings and enhancing both safety and precision during operation. Additionally, the excavator boasts a 25 percent increase in travel speed under load, which translates to faster movement around job sites and, ultimately, higher productivity. Another notable improvement is the 7 percent increase in excavator efficiency, enabling operators to complete tasks more swiftly without compromising on performance.
Zac Evans, Yanmar’s mini excavator product manager for North America, highlighted the significance of the new model, stating, “This new iteration of the ViO35 elevates both what operators can do and their experience while doing it. Yanmar listened to customers and delivered an upgraded model that’s easier to use and move around the job site. The ViO35-7 brings new levels of productivity while maintaining unbeatable reliability.”
Some key features of the ViO35-7 include a 3-pump hydraulic system, which helps ensure that the excavator doesn’t slow down when performing multiple simultaneous operations. This system is designed to reduce downtime, allowing for smoother and faster completion of tasks. The increased maneuverability paired with 25 percent faster travel speeds under load also enhances the overall efficiency of the machine. Additionally, an auto kickdown feature built into the two-speed operation system makes it easy to transition to slower, more delicate tasks without hassle, giving operators more control over their work.
Weighing in at 8,047 pounds, the ViO35-7 also boasts improved excavation capabilities and faster cycle times, making it more powerful than its previous models. A higher torque swing motor has been integrated into the design, which provides extra power for backfill work, particularly on slopes. This added power ensures that operators can handle even the most challenging terrains with ease, making the ViO35-7 an excellent choice for various applications.
Overall, the ViO35-7 is a testament to Yanmar’s dedication to delivering top-tier equipment that addresses the needs of modern job sites. Whether you’re tackling tough backfill work or maneuvering through tight urban spaces, this mini excavator offers both the reliability and performance that operators need to get the job done efficiently.
