Whether you’re tackling landscaping, construction, or material handling, the ER616F is built to get the job done.

It is powered by a Kubota D782 diesel engine, compliant with T3 emissions standards, ensuring both power and environmental responsibility. 

With 10 kW (13.4 hp) at 2300 rpm, this 0.8-litre, 3-cylinder engine provides ample grunt for its size. 

The machine’s hydrostatic transmission ensures smooth operation, while the VDAP pump delivers a main flow rate of 52 L/min at a relief valve pressure of 206 bar, translating to responsive hydraulic performance.

Weighing in at 1880 kg, the ER616F is highly manoeuvrable, making it ideal for confined job sites. 

Its standard 0.04 m³ bucket (300 mm width) is perfect for light material handling, while its bucket breakout force of 1529 kgf and arm breakout force of 918 kgf ensure it can handle tougher tasks when needed.

The mini excavator’s compact dimensions—3608 mm length, 2375 mm height, and 970/1240 mm width—mean it can navigate narrow pathways. 

The 620 mm tail-swing radius enhances its agility, reducing the risk of accidental bumps in tight spaces.

With a max dump height of 2490 mm and a dig depth of 2290 mm, the ER616F is well-suited for loading small trucks, moving soil, or clearing debris. 

Its 145 mm ground clearance ensures stability on uneven terrain, while the 1230 mm track length and 230 mm track pad width provide excellent traction.

The machine’s 30% gradeability means it can handle slopes confidently, and while its top speed isn’t blistering, it’s optimised for precision work rather than high-speed travel.

The inclusion of a spare spool for attachments adds versatility, allowing the machine to be fitted with forks, grapples, or other tools to suit different jobs.
