ZOOMLION

ZE27GU Mini Excavator

ZOOMLION's compact crawler excavator combines a 15.4 kW engine, a 45 cc/rev main hydraulic pump and a 0.08 m³ standard bucket for excavation and material handling in confined working areas. Operating weights vary by cab and canopy configuration, allowing buyers to consider the appropriate arrangement for their application.

The engine uses an E-TVCS three-vortex combustion system and mechanical speed regulation, while the large-displacement main pump is matched to the engine's torque and power reserve to support hydraulic digging performance and fuel-efficient operation. A zero-tail-swing design further allows the upper structure to rotate within the width of the fully extended tracks, making the mini excavator suitable for narrow construction sites and work near roads.

  • Engine power: 15.4 kW at 2,400 rpm
  • Operating weight: 2,700 kg (cab) & 2,650 kg (Canopy)
  • Bucket capacity: 0.08 m³

Notes

  • Values marked with an asterisk (*) are limited by hydraulic capacity. In accordance with ISO 10567, rated lifting loads do not exceed 87% of hydraulic lifting capacity.
  • Values without an asterisk are limited by tipping capacity. In accordance with ISO 10567, rated lifting loads do not exceed 75% of tipping load.
  • The weight of the excavator bucket, lifting hook, sling and other lifting accessories is not included in the table and must be accounted for when determining the permissible load.

Features
Considerate Design

Considerate Design
A dedicated access step helps operators enter the cab more easily.

Large Space Design

Large Space Design
The cab provides generous legroom and a wide entrance, allowing operators to get in and out more easily while maintaining adequate space for operating the controls.

Fatigue-Reducing Design

Fatigue-Reducing Design
The armrests feature stepless height adjustment, allowing operators to set a suitable arm position for greater comfort during operation.

Versatile Attachment Controls

Versatile Attachment Controls
The high-configuration version includes hydraulic lines for a breaker, quick coupler and multiple attachments. A switch on the joystick allows operators to control the relevant attachment hydraulic functions without relying on separate external controls.

Zero-Tail-Swing Design

Zero-Tail-Swing Design
With the tracks fully extended, the upper structure can rotate without the tail extending beyond the track width. The zero-tail-swing arrangement helps operators work in narrow spaces and alongside busy roads where clearance is limited.

Components and Configuration
Control Panel

Control Panel
The LCD instrument panel displays essential operating information, while physical buttons provide tactile control of the interface. A menu area on the right allows operators to check engine speed, coolant temperature and fuel level.

ZOOMLION-Developed Air Conditioning System

ZOOMLION-Developed Air Conditioning System
The high-configuration version features a ZOOMLION-developed air conditioning system with heating and cooling functions, internal and external air circulation, and airflow designed to improve operator comfort.

Electric Proportional Joystick

Electric Proportional Joystick
On the high-configuration version, the electric proportional joystick enables operators to control the hydraulic functions of different attachments during operation.

Hydraulic Line Protection

Hydraulic Line Protection
The working hydraulic lines are routed close to the upper side of the boom to reduce exposure to impacts during excavation and positioning. This routing helps protect the hydraulic lines from contact with surrounding obstacles.

Dozer Hydraulic Line Protection

Dozer Hydraulic Line Protection
A protective plate shields the dozer blade hydraulic lines and cylinder from impacts and contact with materials in demanding working conditions.

Open Inspection Access

Open Inspection Access
Opening the side service door provides access to the cooler, hydraulic oil inspection points and safety switch for routine checks.

Centralized Inspection Access

Centralized Inspection Access
An inspection opening beneath the cab allows operators to examine the hydraulic lines while standing at the cab entrance. This arrangement makes routine inspection more convenient and helps operators monitor equipment condition.

Accessible Maintenance Layout

Accessible Maintenance Layout
The rear cover can be opened by pressing the lock and rotating the latch, exposing maintenance components through a large service opening. With service points within reach, routine maintenance can be carried out more conveniently and with less time spent gaining access.
