Overview

This Sunward SWE90N9 is a 9-ton mini excavator manufactured in 2012, with 8,500 hours on the meter. Sourced from our yard in Chongqing, China, this Grade B machine has been a workhorse for its previous owner. It is offered as a cost-effective solution for operators who need a reliable machine for lighter tasks. The unit is currently in stock and ready for inspection or shipment.

02

Specifications highlights

The excavator is powered by an OEM engine, which starts and runs without abnormal noise or smoke. The bucket and undercarriage show moderate wear consistent with the hours. Operating weight is 9.0 tons, making it suitable for confined worksites. The swing mechanism operates smoothly, and the hydraulic system shows no visible leaks. Key components such as the final drives and pumps are in functional condition.

03

Working condition

Grade B: The machine has visible signs of use including paint fading, scratches, and some rust on attachment points. The undercarriage has 60% track and sprocket life remaining. There are minor leaks from the boom cylinder seals which will require attention. The cab interior shows wear on the seat and controls but all gauges and switches are operational. Overall, this is a working machine that needs cosmetic and minor mechanical refresh.

04

Why choose this unit

The Sunward SWE90N9 offers a good balance of size and power for budget-conscious buyers in emerging markets. It is a common model in China, so spare parts are widely available and affordable. For export to Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, this machine provides a low entry cost for general excavation, utility work, and landscaping. Its compact size allows easy transport and operation in tight spaces.

05

Best for

Best suited for light to medium excavation, trenching, and material handling on construction or agricultural sites. Ideal for buyers in Nigeria, Indonesia, and Peru who require a reliable machine for daily operations without the high capital investment of a newer unit.

06
