Boost your bottom line

Looking for more performance, low cost of ownership and the versatility and small space capability of true zero tail swing? Look no further than the Vi055-6A. We’ve packed the most wanted features and Yanmar innovations into this 5.5-ton class mini excavator including standard auto-shifting two-speed travel to efficiently move between dig areas. Providing all the performance you need is a turbo-charged Tier 4 Final Yanmar diesel engine resulting in more than 47HP at your fingertips. You can then add more capability with the optional 4-way blade and floating function. Add it all up and you have an excavator that can tackle the toughest tasks in places where larger, heavier, and less maneuverable excavators simply can’t go. Plus, with our legendary Yanmar ease of maintenance and rugged dependability, you can rest assured you’ll be able to work harder and longer for less.

Fits like a glove

The operator station of the Vi055-6A is designed for optimum intuitiveness and maximum comfort. The controls fall perfectly into place, the deep cushion seat provides all-day comfort, side bolsters keep you secure, and an informative LCD monitor makes it easy to keep tabs on engine and hydraulic details.
