A compact excavator needs to offer more than simply small dimensions. It must provide the performance, stability and control required to handle demanding work while remaining comfortable and straightforward to operate.
The Yanmar SV26 has been developed to achieve precisely that balance.
Ideally suited to landscaping, urban construction, groundworks, property development and agricultural applications, the SV26 provides dependable performance in a versatile and easily managed package.
Compact and stable
The SV26 is designed to perform effectively in restricted working environments while retaining excellent stability.
Low ground pressure helps reduce unnecessary damage to sensitive surfaces, making the machine well suited to landscaping and projects where ground conditions require particular care. Its well-balanced design gives operators the confidence to work efficiently across a wide variety of sites and terrain.
The machine has an operating weight of approximately 2,600 kg with a canopy or 2,740 kg with a cab, depending on its configuration.
Hydraulic performance with precise control
At the heart of the SV26 is an advanced hydraulic system designed to deliver fast, smooth and controlled performance.
The system supports simultaneous machine movements, helping the operator maintain efficient working cycles without sacrificing precision. This makes the SV26 equally capable when digging, grading, loading or using a compatible hydraulic attachment.
The machine provides 24.5 kN of bucket digging force and 14.5 kN of arm digging force with the standard arm, offering the capability required for demanding day-to-day work.
Two travel speeds, reaching up to 4.8 km/h, also make it easier to move efficiently around the site.
A spacious working environment
Operator comfort is one of the SV26’s major strengths.
The machine offers an exceptionally spacious cab for its class, with an ergonomic layout, conveniently positioned controls and excellent visibility of the working area. These features help reduce fatigue and allow the operator to concentrate on accuracy and productivity throughout the day.
A comprehensive protection system also helps safeguard important components, supporting durability and long-term reliability in challenging environments.
Efficient Yanmar power
The SV26 is powered by a reliable Yanmar diesel engine producing 17.6 kW of net power.
Fuel consumption is kept remarkably low, while the machine continues to deliver the responsive performance expected on a busy site. This combination can help owners control running costs without compromising the machine’s day-to-day usefulness.
