1 tonne: tight access and light digging
The SV08 narrows to 680 mm and the SV10 to 740 mm for side gates and doorways, then both widen on site. The SV10 digs a little deeper. Use them for garden beds, irrigation trenches and small footings.
1.7 tonne: the all-rounder
The ViO17 narrows to 950 mm and digs about 2.2 m deep. It's the all-rounder for residential landscaping, retaining walls and small pools.
3 tonne: bigger jobs, tight access
The ViO30 is 1.55 m wide and digs about 2.8 m deep, with true zero tail swing. It suits house slabs, footings and pools where a 3.5T won't fit.
3.5 tonne: pools and site cuts
The ViO35 digs over 3 m deep with real breakout force, and needs about 1.75 m of access. Good for pools, driveways and services trenching.
5.5 tonne: bulk digging
The ViO55 digs nearly 4 m deep and has a tilt hitch for batters and drains. It suits builders, larger blocks and civil work.
8 and 10 tonne: bulk earthworks
The ViO80 and SV100 dig around 4.5 m deep with 7 m of reach, and need about 2.3 m of access plus room for the delivery truck. The ViO80 has true zero tail swing for boundary work. The SV100 adds more power for basements, large pools and civil jobs.
