How does the CREX6-MD compare with a 1-tonne mini excavator?

It is lighter and much narrower, so it fits through gaps a 1-tonne machine cannot. A 1-tonne digger will be more stable and dig faster on open ground, but it cannot reach the same confined sites.

Can it fit through a standard doorway?

Yes. At 700 mm overall width it passes through standard doorways and most garden gates. Check the actual opening, since frames and thresholds can narrow it.

What is included with the excavator?

The package includes a canopy, a 600 mm bucket, a thumb and a quick hitch. The quick hitch lets you swap attachments faster.

Maximum digging depth is 1,250 mm. That covers footings, drainage runs and small planting or landscaping work.

What engine does it use, and is it easy to service?

It uses a Koop diesel engine, a common small-industrial engine known for simple maintenance. Parts and service are widely available through small plant suppliers.

How do I transport it?

At 660 kg operating weight it needs a plant trailer and a suitably rated tow vehicle. It is not a machine you move by hand.

Our take on the CREX6-MD Diesel 600kg Micro / Mini Excavator Digger Koop Engine

The CREX6-MD is a 660 kg micro excavator built around a Koop diesel engine, with a 700 mm overall width that lets it pass through standard doorways and garden gates. Its 96° boom swing and 1,250 mm maximum digging depth put it in the same class as other 0.6–0.8 tonne mini diggers, but the narrow footprint is the selling point for tight sites. It suits contractors, landscapers and property owners working in back gardens, alleys and indoor or confined spaces where a larger machine cannot go. The package includes a canopy, a 600 mm bucket, a thumb and a quick hitch.
