The OKW17 has equipped KUBOTA D722 or LAIDONG motors that are economical and have excellent power and performance parameters to suit a variety of situations. The machine is ideal for small projects, gardening, greenhouses and excavation and demolition work in limited areas. This excavator also uses joystick-type control handles on both sides of the seat, which give the operator good and smooth control over the machine and do not tire them during long working hours. A foot pedal is also used to drive the machine in driving mode, making the machine more in line with the techniques and habits used to drive conventional excavators.
