Discover the CFG (AGT) QK18R Mini Excavator at Best Seedling LLC, your affordable entry into serious digging power without the bulk. This brand-new 1-ton machine is engineered for versatility in confined workspaces, making it a favorite for DIY enthusiasts, small-scale landscapers, and contractors who need to maneuver around obstacles like fences, sheds, or urban sites. Whether you’re trenching for irrigation lines, planting trees in a backyard, excavating for patios, or clearing debris on a rental property, the QK18R delivers reliable performance where larger equipment just can’t go. Its zero-tail swing design (minimal overhang) ensures you can work safely near walls or edges, reducing the risk of damage while maximizing productivity.
At the heart of the QK18R is a robust 13.5HP gasoline engine that provides ample torque for its size, paired with smooth pilot controls and a lockout system for operator safety. The 3-way hydraulic valve offers flexible flow control for a variety of attachments, and the integrated hydraulic thumb lets you grip logs, rocks, or pipes with precision—no more fumbling with loose loads. Plus, the hydraulic fan and cooler keep things running cool even on hot days, extending uptime on the job.
