Frequently Asked Questions
Can I operate an excavator myself?
Yes, but only if you are licensed to do so. Operating large equipment requires specific licensing, as mandated by state and local councils. To obtain the required license, you’ll need to enrol in a truck driving school.
What size excavator would I need for a standard project?
This depends on the project. A standard excavator is larger than 7 tonnes and less than 45 tonnes. These types of excavators are the most versatile. They can work well on almost any type of job, due to their power and their ability to fit into most spaces.
How much can an excavator lift?
An excavator on average, has approximately 15,000 kilos of lift capacity. But, as the load is lifted 5 feet off the ground, the bucket’s lift point is elevated to 10 feet. This in turn, diminishes the machine’s capacity to around 13,000 kilos.
