How To Use An Excavator

 

If you find yourself with a lot of difficult tasks that need completing on a worksite, you’ll probably want to look into excavators. These powerful machines are capable of handling many different jobs, which is why they have become so commonplace in the worlds of construction, forestry, mining, farming and more. New South Tractor of Newton, North Carolina, is your local equipment dealership so we’ve broken down what an excavator is and how to use it for your benefit.

 

Definition

 

An excavator is a machine built to excavate, or dig a hole in the ground. Some call it a backhoe or a digger. Its long boom arm is connected to a pole that holds its bucket. The operator of the machine sits within a cab on a pivot that can turn impressively, even up to 360° in some models!

 

Some excavators are designed specifically for bigger tasks like open-pit mining or cutting down brush. Mini excavators are more agile due to their compact size, so they’re better for jobs like trenching. Several different bucket types are also available, from heavy-duty to sorting buckets. You can even replace the bucket with a different type of attachment to increase the usefulness of your machine.

 

Uses

 

You can use an excavator in a huge variety of applications because of its versatility and power. Dig a trench, foundation or post hole efficiently. Clear away demolition debris after a building is torn down or remove brush and organic matter from a piece of property. You can even use an excavator to clear away snow from a worksite! 

 

Your excavator is also useful for lifting heavy items. These many uses are why you’ll see these machines used in so many different types of construction, from highway to residential home construction, as well as within the mining and forestry industries to make work go more quickly.

 

While you’re shopping for the right excavator, you’ll want to think about what you’ll need from your machine. Consider the bucket size, dump height, arm force, dig depth, power rating and maximum height of your machine and compare it to the parameters of your worksite and the jobs that need doing. Also factor in your budget and how much you can afford to spend.
