Width is 72.8 in. That number decides more jobs than horsepower does. The E42 goes through a standard six foot gate, down a side yard and into a back garden without taking a fence panel out, and it still digs to 10.4 ft. That combination is why this size sells.
The 2020 model runs a Tier 4 diesel making 42.6 hp (31.8 kW) with the governor set at 2,200 rpm. Operating weight is 9,830 lb, putting it in the 4.5 ton class.
Force and reach
Arm digging force is 5,820 lbf and bucket digging force is 9,601 lbf. Maximum reach at ground level is 17.3 ft, lift radius 118 in., and rated lift capacity 4,921 lb. Boom swing goes 75 degrees left and 50 degrees right, so you can offset the boom and dig hard against a wall on the left side. Maximum dump height is 12.3 ft, which clears the side of most tandem dump trucks.

Standard auxiliary flow is 20 gal/min at 3,045 psi. That is enough for a breaker, an auger or a compaction plate in this weight class. Travel speeds are 3.3 mph high and 1.6 mph low, which is honest for a tracked machine. If you need to move between sites, you need a trailer, not a road speed.
Fuel tank is 19 gallons, so a full working day between fills is realistic on most digs.
