• Proven technology provides reliable operation and a fuel efficient system.
• Easy-starting, even in cold weather, without block heaters or starting fluid.
• Exhaust is located in the rear counterweight for less noise, increased safety and improved visibility.

HYDRAULICS

The advanced hydraulic system on the Mustang 170Z NXT2 Compact Excavator provides long-lasting, efficient power precisely where you need it.

• Hydraulic system is designed to enhance engine performance, resulting in a more efficient system.
• Two variable pumps and two gear pumps combine oil and redirect flow where it is needed, allowing for simultaneous operation without loss of power.
• Smooth operation, even while using the boom and arm during turning.
• Two-way and one-way auxiliary flow valve with direct-to-tank bypass valve feature is standard.

BOOM

Rugged, high-strength boom incorporates features to protect and extend the life of moving parts and components.

• Precision welded boom is constructed with thick side plates, reinforced by contoured transition plates.
• Heavy-duty sliding cylinder guards protect exposed cylinder rods from damage.
• Integrated boom and work lights illuminate the area, allowing for safe and effective operation after dark.
• Single pin boom mount design provides optimal durability and component life.

UNDERCARRIAGE

The undercarriage was designed with serviceability and longevity in mind.

• Staggered tread and mandrel design combine with a shorter track design for reduced vibration.
• Long tracks provide a smoother ride over rough terrain.
• Track are short-pitched to reduce wear, fatigue and damage.
• Angled crawler frame reduces soil buildup on the undercarriage, extending the life of rollers and tracks. 
• Wide track gauge and an offset track drive system increase stability without adding to overall track width.

OPERATOR`S STATION

Canopy or cab configurations allow the operator to tailor the machine to the specific work environment.

• Walk-through canopy for easy entry and exit.
• Excellent visibility in all directions allows safe and efficient operation.

• Large travelling pedals are easy to press and allow confident, reliable work.
• One-way/two-way return flow selection for optimal performance from attachments, such as thumbs, tilting buckets and augers.
• The operator can easily select standard ISO or an optional backhoe control pattern with the turn of a mechanical lever.

SERVICEABILITY

• The large, rear hood opens easily to expose the engine oil, air cleaner and water supply to the cooling water sub-tank.
• The removable left-hand side cover grants access to the hydraulic system and return filter cartridge.
• The removable right-hand side cover allows access to the fuel tank and radiator.
• The access panel in front of the driver’s seat easily opens to reveal the battery, starter motor and fuse panel.
