236 Hyundai has three new compact, short tailswing excavators for its 9 Series lineup.

The 6tonne, 8tonne and 23tonne machines share features with other 9 Series models already in the firm's range. High efficiency hydraulics are said to provide precise and powerful control of all operations, while minimising fuel consumption.

High visibility is claimed from the cabs, which also provide good operator comfort levels.

Versatility is offered as the machines can use a wide array of attachments to suit a variety of working applications. These new models also feature the firm's sophisticated Hi-Mate machine management, tracking and geo-fencing solution, which can be used to monitor performance and check maintenance needs remotely, as well as to locate and shut down the machine from the owner's office if required.
