When you choose Doosan as your heavy equipment brand, you’ll have the backing of a strong, global organization – with benefits that extend far beyond the capabilities of a new machine.
Strong Brand Doosan began in 1896. Its heritage in excavators goes back to 1978. Wheel loader production began in 1992, while the company’s first articulated dump truck was designed in 1972. Throughout its years in the heavy equipment industry, Doosan has listened to its North American customers, making many improvements – and developing new machines – as a result of feedback from owners and operators. From 2005 to 2015, Doosan grew from its position as the seventh-largest construction equipment manufacturer in the world to the fifth-largest.

Strong Equipment Doosan products are known for reliably exceeding customers’ most demanding expectations. It’s why we’re one of the fastest-growing heavy equipment brands in North America. Doosan offers crawler excavators, wheel excavators, compact excavators, wheel loaders, articulated dump trucks, log loaders, material handlers and a variety of job-matched attachments – all designed to perform in the most difficult working conditions.
PERFORMANCE With a closed center valve, piston pump, load-sensing hydraulics and cushioned cylinders, Doosan compact excavators are packed with high-end hydraulic components that deliver the performance you need for difficult work. What do you need? Predictability? Speed? Precise control? Doosan delivers it all, providing the optimal balance between engine horsepower and hydraulic force to get the job done efficiently.
Powerful Performance Efficient torque-limiting piston pumps respond to load demands, delivering arm and bucket forces that meet the challenge of your most difficult jobs.
Smooth, Predictable Work Group Doosan control valves provide smooth, predictable work group control, giving you precise movement that comes in handy during work in close quarters. Don’t sacrifice speed to get smoother operation. Doosan excavators deliver both. A unique control valve system and cushioned cylinders provide ample, consistent oil flow for the job for fast cycle times and a smooth, agile response to your commands.
Faster Cycle Times When you’re digging, dumping spoil into trucks or placing boulders the difference is clear. Doosan compact excavators get the job done faster. With cylinders sized precisely to match pump capacities, Doosan excavators always achieve best-in-class cycle times.
Fingertip Boom Swing Control Doosan fingertip boom swing control gives you the ease of operation that makes fine movements effortless, giving you a better work result and greater comfort throughout the day’s work.
Better Metering and Multifunction Operation A simple thumb switch on the left joystick – not foot pedals – controls your swing. Not only is this style of control more comfortable to use, but it also brings better metering and improved multifunctioning to the job
Strong, Well-Designed Work Group The Doosan work group is built tough to ensure a long, productive life for your machine and require less routine maintenance. It’s also designed with room for the addition of secondary auxiliary hydraulics. If you need them, you can install a second auxiliary hydraulics option with less effort and lower cost.
In-Track Swing Frame The Doosan in-track swing frame design gives you the opportunity to get closer to your work when you’re offset digging. Bring the excavator flush against a structure or obstacle. The swing castings and cylinders are positioned within track width, making it impossible to damage these components in tight areas while protecting structures and obstacles from damage as well.
PRODUCTIVITY
Track Advantages A tracked undercarriage gives you superior flotation and traction on sensitive or soft surfaces that would stop a TLB. Less ground disturbance also cuts down on time-eating, profit-reducing repairs to driveways or finished landscaping.
Cost Advantages Compact excavators offer better fuel economy and lower costs overall, and still provide the performance you demand for the job. Doosan excavators achieve more with smaller displacement engines, boosting productivity while using up to 40 percent less fuel over the course of an entire day’s work.
Swinging Against Obstacles A tractor loader backhoe is often limited to just 45 degrees of work group movement when you’re up against an obstacle. With 180 degrees of movement, the excavator provides more freedom for placing spoil or loading trucks.
An independent boom swing enables offset digging – for square holes or digging around buried utilities – without repositioning. That’s virtually impossible in a TLB.
Visibility Advantages In an excavator, the operator sits to the side of the boom for a clear view of the bucket or attachment. Get used to leaning around the boom to see properly on a TLB.
Better Than a Tractor Loader Backhoe (TLB) Compact excavators often outwork larger TLBs that appear more powerful on paper. Where a TLB has a limited swing of 180 degrees, the house of your compact excavator swings 360 degrees, continuously rotating for faster and more flexible spoil placement, better visibility and less repositioning on tight-fitting jobs. 180° 45° With quick cycle times, efficient designs and plenty of power, you’ll fit more work into fewer hours with a Doosan excavator.
Tier 4 (T4) Compliant Optimized to provide the ultimate in power delivery and fuel economy, Doosan compact excavators feature T4 compliant engines to reduce air pollution.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) EGR recycles a portion of the engine exhaust to reduce oxygen and lower the temperature in the combustion chamber. This greatly reduces nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions.
Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) Using DOC technology, particulate matter (PM) emissions are transformed into harmless water and carbon dioxide.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Exhaust enters the DPF where it’s filtered further. The result is cleaner diesel exhaust and a healthier environment.
Regeneration The DPF requires continuous regeneration to filter exhaust properly. Passive regeneration occurs with exhaust heat only. An active regeneration initiates automatically if the ECU detects certain levels of particulate matter in the DPF. It does not interfere with normal machine operation. If required, manual regeneration can be initiated by the operator.
Auto Idle To reduce noise, improve jobsite communications and save fuel, the standard auto idle feature idles your engine automatically when machine functions are not used for a few seconds. When you move the controls,the excavator automatically returns to your previous throttle setting.
Auto Downshift When turning, pushing and maneuvering, auto downshift reduces the hydraulic flow – so the machine doesn’t bog down during travel. When the load decreases, the excavator automatically shifts back into high range.
Backfill Blade The versatile backfill blade levels, backfills, grades or pushes material with ease. A high-strength, reversible cutting edge provides a long working life and lower operating costs. Just turn it over and reinstall for minimal downtime when you need a fresh edge. Controls include a convenient blade float feature.
