The CDM6020 hydraulic excavator from Lonking Machinery is exactly what professional contractors, small businesses, and farms need.
This mini excavator combines the reliability of a Yanmar engine, a compact tracked design, and impressive digging power in one machine that can work where larger units simply cannot reach.
Demand for compact construction equipment is growing in Latvia, especially for utility network renewal, landscaping, and site earthworks, and the CDM6020 is designed precisely for these tasks.
You get a better offer?
The Lonking CDM6020 is a compact excavator that combines small dimensions with serious working capability.
This tracked excavator weighs approximately 2,000 kg, yet it can dig to a depth of up to 2.3 meters, which is more than sufficient for most municipal and construction jobs.
The Yanmar 3TNV80F engine is globally recognized for durability and fuel efficiency.
It delivers 13.4 kW of power at 2,200 rpm, which is enough for both delicate landscaping work and more demanding construction earthworks.
The tracked drive system provides stability on uneven surfaces and construction sites, including wet conditions.
With tracks only 230 mm wide and a compact upper structure, the CDM6020 can easily access narrow driveways, small yards, and densely built-up areas.
This excavator is highly versatile and suitable for both private users and professional crews.

These specifications show that the CDM6020 is an excellent choice for a wide range of everyday tasks.
A bucket digging force of 22.7 kN means the machine can handle dense soils and partially compacted gravel.
Its 30° gradeability allows it to operate safely on uneven terrain, which is a major advantage in rural Latvian conditions.
The 23 L fuel tank supports long working periods without frequent refueling, reducing downtime and improving efficiency.
For buyers who value easy maintenance, Yanmar engines are widely available and well supported across Europe, including Latvia.
1. Utility trenching and repair work
In Latvian towns and villages, repair work on water pipes, sewer lines, and electrical cables is carried out constantly.
The compact size of the CDM6020 allows it to work even in narrow streets and between existing utility lines.
Its 2.3-meter digging depth is ideal for most utility trenches, and its mobility makes it possible to serve several job sites in one day.
2. Landscaping and garden improvement
More and more Latvian homeowners and farms are investing in landscaping, including terrace installation, pond digging, and lawn reshaping.
The CDM6020’s tracked drive helps minimize damage to lawns and reduces soil disturbance over larger areas.
Its precision and maneuverability make it an ideal assistant for landscaping professionals.
3. Earthworks in small plots and tight spaces
In densely built-up areas such as Riga, Jurmala, and Sigulda, work is often only possible with compact machinery.
With 230 mm tracks and a small turning radius, the CDM6020 can easily enter courtyards, work close to buildings, and pass under low access gates.
It is a practical solution for places where larger excavators simply cannot operate.
4. Rural road infrastructure work
Latvia has an extensive rural road network, and maintaining damaged ditches, culverts, and roadside areas requires regular work.
The CDM6020 is ideal for these tasks because it is compact enough for rural roads yet powerful enough to work with dense soils.
Its ground pressure of only 30 kPa means minimal soil damage on soft ground.
5. Foundation digging for low-rise construction
In private house construction in Latvia, the CDM6020 is ideal for digging foundation trenches and basements.
With a digging depth of 2.3 m and a bucket force of 22.7 kN, it easily handles standard foundation excavation tasks.
Its compact size also allows it to work where access to the construction site is limited, and it is suitable for loading waste material and soil into dump trucks.
When comparing mini excavator pricing and functionality, the market offers several models in the 1.5-3 ton class.
However, the CDM6020 stands out for several reasons that make it one of the best mini excavators in this category.
Price and quality: the CDM6020 offers excellent value for money.
Lonking Machinery is one of the largest construction equipment manufacturers in China and operates with strict quality control and compliance with European standards. Compared with similar European or Japanese brands, the Lonking excavator is considerably more affordable while maintaining comparable technical parameters.
Engine reliability: the use of a Yanmar engine is a major argument in favor of this model over cheaper competitors. Yanmar is a Japanese manufacturer whose engines are widely recognized for reliability and durability. Spare parts for Yanmar engines are widely available in Latvia and throughout Europe, which means lower long-term maintenance costs.
Compactness and mobility: unlike many competing models, the CDM6020 is optimized for work in narrow areas thanks to its compact upper structure and 230 mm tracks. This provides excellent stability even on soft soil, with ground pressure of 30 kPa, while many competitors in this weight class exceed 35-40 kPa.
Maintenance: the CDM6020’s simple design and standard hydraulic components mean that service can also be carried out in Latvian service centers. This is a significant advantage because there is no need to wait for foreign specialists or order rare spare parts.
