The Yanmar VIO55-5B is a compact mini excavator designed for construction, utility, landscaping, and site preparation work. It features Yanmar's zero tail swing design, which allows operation in confined spaces while reducing rear overhang during rotation. The VIO55-5B is typically equipped with a diesel engine, hydraulic system, dozer blade, and an enclosed operator station with standard controls. Its operating weight, digging depth, and lift capacity make it suitable for trenching, grading, and material handling on small to medium job sites. The model is part of Yanmar's VIO series of reduced-tail-swing excavators.
