About · Yanmar VIO38

Overview

The Yanmar VIO38 is a conventional-tail mini-excavator with an operating weight of 3695 kg and an engine output of 25 hp. It is equipped with a bucket capacity of 0.11 m3, placing it firmly in the 3.5-tonne compact excavator class. The machine is manufactured by Yanmar, a Japanese OEM with an established presence in the European compact equipment segment.

Typical applications

Where this machine is used

Mini-excavators in this weight class are well suited to site preparation, drainage trenching, and utility installation work in confined or access-restricted environments. Their compact footprint makes them practical for residential construction, landscaping, and urban infrastructure projects where larger equipment cannot operate efficiently. Secondary applications include foundation excavation for small structures and general earthmoving on light civil works.

Used-market inspection

What to check before buying

Prospective buyers should carry out a thorough visual and operational inspection before purchase. Key areas to assess include undercarriage wear on tracks, rollers, and sprockets, the condition of hydraulic hoses and cylinder seals, and any evidence of structural repair or weld work on the boom and dipper arm. Slew ring play and bucket pin wear are common indicators of overall machine use and maintenance discipline. Service history documentation and engine oil analysis records add confidence to the evaluation, and a functional test of all auxiliary hydraulic circuits is advisable before concluding any transaction.

Current market

Price position

In the European market the Yanmar VIO38 trades at an average of EUR 64575, with a typical price range running from EUR 62213 to EUR 66936. This positioning places it in direct competition with the Kubota KX037 and the Doosan DX35, both of which occupy the same 3 to 4 tonne mini-excavator segment. Buyers can use this range as a baseline reference when evaluating individual units against condition, age, and specification.
