Choosing a 1-ton mini excavator means balancing the listed price against the work dimensions and machine configuration that suit the jobs ahead. Here, the key decision is whether the USD 799 listed-price spread matters most or whether the Mini Track Digger's separate operating-weight specification better matches your plans.
Quick verdict
The Mini Excavator 1 Ton Tracked Digger 13.5HP EPA Gas Engine Pick Up VA is listed at USD 2,999.00, while the Mini Excavator 1 Ton 13.5hp Mini Track Digger Gas EPA Engine is listed at USD 3,798.00. Start with the Tracked Digger when the lower listed price is the deciding factor. Turn to the Mini Track Digger when its listed 1,000 kg machine operation weight is more relevant to the work than the price spread.

Where each excavator wins
The 1 Ton Tracked Digger makes the stronger case when keeping the operating weight under 3,000 lb is important and a full dozer blade is part of the intended setup. Those two concrete details make it a focused choice for shoppers looking for a small-format machine without moving to the higher listed price.
The 1 Ton Mini Track Digger is the better match for shoppers whose work planning starts with its listed 0.025 m3 bucket capacity and 340 mm bucket width. Favor it when those exact bucket measurements matter more than the Tracked Digger's under-3,000-lb operating-weight figure.
Product notes
Mini Excavator 1 Ton Tracked Digger 13.5HP EPA Gas Engine Pick Up VA

At 2,256 mm overall length and 917 mm overall width, the Mini Excavator 1 Ton Tracked Digger 13.5HP EPA Gas Engine Pick Up VA has a compact footprint for the backyard, orchard, and narrow-access work named in its description. It is also positioned for construction, landscaping, farming, and property maintenance, giving it a broad set of on-property uses. Its listed operating weight is under 3,000 lb, reinforcing the case for a smaller-format digger. The limitation is its 5-6 ft maximum digging-depth range: that stated ceiling makes it best suited to excavation that stays within that range rather than deeper digging plans.
Mini Excavator 1 Ton 13.5hp Mini Track Digger Gas EPA Engine

The Mini Excavator 1 Ton 13.5hp Mini Track Digger Gas EPA Engine centers its appeal on a retractable dozer blade described as fully extending to 900 mm, plus an adjustable chassis. Its named RATO R420 engine, 2.2 km/h travel speed, 30° climbing capacity, and 1,000 kg machine operation weight give shoppers several operating specifications to weigh against their job requirements. Choose it when the blade-and-chassis configuration is a priority. The limitation is equally specific: maximum digging depth is 1,450 mm, so that measurement should fit the depth needed for the intended work.
Final choice by use case
Choose the 1 Ton Tracked Digger for backyard, orchard, and narrow-access work, where its compact-body positioning and 2,256 mm overall length align with the project setting. Choose the 1 Ton Mini Track Digger when the named RATO R420 engine and 2.2 km/h travel speed are the concrete machine specifications that matter most. Both are new 1-ton mini excavators, so the practical choice comes down to the individual digging measurements, work dimensions, and blade or chassis setup.
