Zero Tail Swing
The HS38 has an 860 mm tail swing radius within the 1,720 mm machine width, so it can work close to walls and in confined spaces. Standard boom swing enables offset digging alongside walls and foundations.
The HS38 is a 3.8-tonne-class compact excavator equipped with a YANMAR diesel engine, load-sensing hydraulics and a zero tail swing design. Standard boom swing and hydraulic pilot controls support precise operation in confined jobsites, while the enclosed cab with standard air conditioning provides a comfortable working environment. Broad attachment compatibility makes the HS38 a versatile machine for construction, trenching, landscaping and utility work.

A standard load-sensing system, built with a LE-HYDRAULIX main pump and control valve and LONKING swing and travel motors, adjusts hydraulic flow according to working demand. This supports smooth, precise control, well-coordinated multi-function movements and efficient use of engine power during digging, grading and attachment work.

The ROPS / FOPS cab features wide glazing for a clear view of the bucket and work area, a suspension seat designed to reduce vibration and operator fatigue, and an LCD display for clear, at-a-glance machine monitoring. Standard air conditioning helps keep the cab comfortable, while hydraulic pilot joysticks provide light, precise control throughout long working days.

The YANMAR 3TNV88F diesel engine delivers 18.2 kW of rated power and is backed by YANMAR's worldwide parts and service network. The wide rear engine cover provides easy access to filters and to the engine oil and coolant check points, making routine inspections and scheduled maintenance straightforward.
