About · Yanmar SV17

Overview

The Yanmar SV17 is a mini-excavator with an operating weight of 1700 kg and an engine output of 13 hp. It is equipped with a bucket capacity of 0.05 m3, placing it firmly in the sub-2-tonne compact excavator class. The model has been in production since 2014 and remains a current-generation machine, giving buyers access to a relatively modern platform with ongoing parts and service support.

Typical applications

Where this machine is used

Machines in this weight and power class are well suited to confined-site earthmoving, landscaping, utility trenching, and drainage work where access is restricted. The compact footprint allows operation in urban environments, walled gardens, and interior demolition scenarios where larger equipment cannot maneuver. Secondary applications include foundation preparation for small structures and general site clearance on space-constrained projects.

Used-market inspection

What to check before buying

When inspecting any used mini-excavator in this class, priority checks should include the condition of the undercarriage, rubber tracks, and track tension, as these components are subject to accelerated wear in abrasive ground conditions. The boom, arm, and bucket pin joints should be assessed for play and grease nipple integrity, and all hydraulic hoses and cylinders should be examined for leaks or chafing. Engine oil and coolant condition, slew ring smoothness, and cab or ROPS structure integrity are also standard pre-purchase verification points. Service history documentation adds confidence to any assessment of a machine's operational background.

Current market

Price position

The European market average for the Yanmar SV17 stands at EUR 21,266, with the current documented price range also at EUR 21,266, indicating a narrow and consistent valuation point in the available data set. Buyers evaluating this machine should consider it alongside direct competitors in the same weight class, notably the Bobcat E17 and the Kubota U17, both of which occupy the same sub-2-tonne segment and may present alternative pricing or dealer support depending on region.
