7.5 Ton Compact Tail Swing Used Hydraulic Excavator with Isuzu Engine Compact Crawler Excavator

This Kobelco SK75-8 used compact hydraulic crawler excavator came from a Japanese landscaping and utility contractor, with 3,600 hours on a 2019 machine. The Isuzu 4LE2 engine is original, the hydraulic system is dry and complete, and the compact tail swing keeps the counterweight close to the tracks so the machine fits into tight residential plots. Seven and a half tons is the class where a contractor gets real digging depth while still towing the machine on a light trailer.

• Compact Tail Swing: A tight counterweight radius lets the machine turn inside a driveway or courtyard, working against walls and fences without a spotter or property damage risk.
• Transport Without Permits: At seven and a half tons the machine tows behind a medium truck in most jurisdictions, so mobilisation between small sites costs very little.
• Efficient Isuzu Engine: The 4LE2 four cylinder diesel returns low fuel burn while delivering enough hydraulic flow for steady trenching and truck loading on small sites.
• Surface Friendly Options: Available with rubber or steel tracks; the rubber option crosses finished paving and courtyards without marking the surface.
• Tight Structure: Boom, stick and bucket linkage magnaflux checked with no cracks, and pins tight with no excessive play throughout the attachment.
• Complete Attachment Set: Supplied with digging bucket, narrow trenching bucket and auxiliary hydraulic piping for a breaker or auger.

Landscaping, drainage trenches, residential foundations, driveway works, pool excavation and utility repairs are the core duties. Contractors who own one large excavator often add an SK75-8 as the machine that handles small jobs profitably, because transport is cheap and the unit is productive enough to make a day rate work. Rental yards like the class for the same reasons, and homeowner demand keeps utilisation high.

Our workshop recorded engine blow by, hydraulic pressure, cylinder drift, swing bearing backlash and undercarriage wear, with results documented and photographed. The machine cold starts cleanly, reaches working temperature quickly, and no fault codes are stored. A video walkaround covering the engine bay, pump compartment and cab can be sent before purchase.

Export paperwork is prepared in house and includes commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin and, where required, CE or EPA conformity documents. Our technical team answers in English, Spanish, Russian and Arabic and can join a video call from your workshop while a technician stands beside the machine. Spare parts quotations always show both OEM and aftermarket options so you can balance cost against lead time for your operating conditions.

Each SK75-8 is pressure washed, drained of residual fuel and photographed from twelve angles before loading. Large units normally travel by bulk vessel or on a flat rack with the boom and stick removed and separately blocked, while compact machines load into a 40HQ container. Cab glass, hydraulic cylinders and the slew ring area are wrapped and the unit is lashed to ISO anchor points. Loading report, vessel name and stowage photographs reach you within 48 hours of departure so your broker can pre-clear the cargo.
