XCMG XE35U Mini Excavator | Yanmar Engine | 24.4 HP | 9,260k lb Operating Weight

XCMG XE35U mini excavator in stock at Logger Shop in Wilkesboro, NC. A 9,260 lb Yanmar-powered machine for tight-site digging, utilities, and site prep.

The XCMG XE35U Mini Excavator is a compact, jobsite-ready machine built for contractors who need strong digging performance, tight-space maneuverability, operator comfort, and attachment versatility in a highly transportable excavator. This 3.5-ton class mini excavator is ideal for trenching, grading, digging, backfilling, drainage work, landscaping, utility installation, residential construction, demolition cleanup, property maintenance, and compact commercial excavation.

Powered by a reliable 24.4 hp Yanmar 3TNV88F Tier 4 Final diesel engine, the XE35U delivers dependable power, efficient operation, and strong hydraulic response for daily contractor use. With a 9,259 lb operating weight with cab, 9,039 lb operating weight with canopy, 0.16 yd³ standard bucket capacity, zero-tail-swing body design, variable angle boom, and strong digging force, this XCMG mini excavator gives operators the capability to work efficiently in areas where larger excavators are difficult to position.

The zero-tail-swing design is one of the strongest advantages of the XE35U. It allows the operator to work closer to buildings, fences, foundations, sidewalks, retaining walls, utilities, and other jobsite obstacles with greater confidence. The variable angle boom swings 75° left and 50° right, giving operators better flexibility for offset digging, trenching alongside structures, working parallel to foundations, and placing material with more precision.

The XE35U is built for attachment-ready productivity. XCMG notes that the machine is compatible with multiple attachments that can be installed quickly with its hydraulic quick coupler. This makes the XE35U a strong fit for contractors who want one machine that can handle bucket work, grading, trenching, cleanup, and hydraulic attachment applications. When equipped with a bucket, thumb, quick coupler, and auxiliary hydraulics, this machine becomes a highly versatile compact excavator for daily jobsite work.

The operator experience is designed around visibility, control, and confidence. The compact body gives the operator a strong view around the machine, while the cab configuration helps protect the operator from weather and jobsite conditions. Heat and A/C, when equipped, make the XE35U more comfortable for year-round work. The control layout is designed for familiar excavator operation, with joystick control for boom, arm, bucket, and swing functions, plus travel controls for precise movement around the jobsite. Smooth hydraulic response helps operators dig, grade, load, and backfill with better control.

For contractors comparing compact excavators, the XCMG XE35U offers a strong combination of size, performance, maneuverability, attachment capability, warranty coverage, and dealer-backed support. It gives contractors a practical way to lower acquisition cost while still getting the digging strength, operator comfort, and service support needed to keep jobs moving.

This machine is backed by a 3 year / 3,000 hour complete warranty. Logger Shop & Construction Equipment, a Superior Equipment Solutions Company, supports XCMG equipment with parts, service, warranty assistance, and dealer-level support before and after the sale.
