Yanmar ViO50-6B / ViO55-6B True Zero Tail Swing Mini Excavator
ViO50-6B / ViO55-6B
Yanmar ViO50-6B / ViO55-6B – True Zero Tail Swing Mini Excavator
Powerful. Compact. Efficient. Designed for demanding construction applications.
The Yanmar ViO50-6B and ViO55-6B are powerful True Zero Tail Swing mini excavators designed to deliver high productivity while maintaining the maneuverability required for demanding job sites.
The ViO50-6B is powered by the YANMAR 4TNV88-ZPBV engine producing 28.1 kW (37.7 HP), while the ViO55-6B is powered by the YANMAR 4TNV84T-ZMBV engine producing 33.4 kW (44.8 HP).
With compact dimensions, strong digging forces, efficient hydraulic systems and a robust undercarriage, these excavators are suitable for construction, excavation, infrastructure, utility, landscaping and other professional applications.
No Compromise Between Compactness and Power
The Yanmar ViO50-6B and ViO55-6B are designed for contractors who need the digging performance of a powerful excavator without sacrificing maneuverability.
The machines combine a compact overall design with powerful engines, optimized weight distribution and a hydraulic system designed for smooth and efficient operation.
Yanmar's True Zero Tail Swing concept keeps the upper frame within the track width, allowing operators to work more safely and effectively in tighter spaces.
True Zero Tail Swing
Greater Maneuverability in Confined Spaces
Yanmar pioneered the concept of the True Zero Tail Swing mini excavator.
Unlike conventional excavators where the rear of the upper structure may extend beyond the track width, the ViO50-6B and ViO55-6B are designed so that the upper frame does not extend beyond the track width.
This allows the machines to work effectively in locations where space is restricted, including:
- Urban construction sites
- Roadside projects
- Utility work
- Infrastructure development
- Building and renovation projects
- Landscaping
- Confined excavation areas
- Industrial sites
For contractors operating in busy Saudi Arabian cities, this compact configuration can provide greater flexibility when working close to buildings, roads and other structures.
