3 Ton Compact Excavator

Name: 3 Ton Excavator With Laidong 385 Engine | HT30 | HIGHTOP GROUP
Brand: Shandong Hightop Group

Looking for a compact digging machine that fits through a standard garden gate? The Hightop HT30 3 ton excavator brings real excavation power to sites where full-size machinery simply cannot go. With an overall width of just 1338 mm and a tail swing radius of 1265 mm, it slips between existing structures, inside greenhouses, and along urban streets — a natural addition to Hightop's 3 ton excavator range.

Despite its compact footprint, the HT30 reaches a maximum digging depth of 2620 mm and a digging radius of 4098 mm, powered by the Laidong 385 three-cylinder direct-injection diesel engine (19 kW @ 2250 rpm). An Eaton hydraulic motor with planetary reducer and an 18 MPa swash-plate pump system (100 L/min) deliver smooth, precise movements, with 30° gradeability and 2.7 km/h travel speed for demanding terrain. Need more reach or bucket capacity? Step up to the 3.5 ton excavatorwith its Kubota D1703 engine and 885 mm tail swing — or browse our excavator attachments including quick hitches, buckets, and augers to adapt the HT30 to any job.

3 Ton Mini Excavator Product Features

1.Compact Power — Built for Restricted Sites

This 3 ton excavator packs real digging capability into a body just 1338 mm wide — narrow enough to pass through standard garden gates and work between existing structures. The 1265 mm tail swing radius keeps the rear within the track footprint during rotation, minimizing collision risk in tight quarters. Powered by the Laidong 385 three-cylinder direct-injection diesel engine rated at 19 kW / 2250 rpm, the machine delivers sufficient torque for trenching, grading, and material handling without the fuel burn of larger units.

2.Eaton Drive System — Smooth Propulsion on Uneven Terrain

Travel power comes from an Eaton hydraulic motor paired with a planetary reducer, providing consistent traction and precise speed control. The main hydraulic circuit operates at 18 MPa with a system flow of 100 L/min, driven by a swash-plate axial piston variable displacement pump (PVD-1B-32P-11G5). Multi-section displacement of 16+16+10.5+4.5 mL allocates independent flow to boom, arm, bucket, and drive functions, preventing power drop during simultaneous movements. A travel speed of 2.7 km/h and 30° gradeability let the machine climb slopes and traverse soft ground confidently.
