Case CX17C

Productivity

The C Series provides more features and functions that drive productivity than any previous CASE mini excavators. All C Series mini excavators come standard with auxiliary hydraulics for easy thumb and attachment set-up – immediately turning the CX17C into a powerful multi-use platform. The standard push blade assists in backfilling and provides added stability in digging applications. The new Auto Shift traveling system automatically downshifts when the load increases to more effectively handle varying ground conditions. An adjustable boom – capable of being offset to the left or right – and zero tail swing allows for digging along buildings and obstacles with ease. The CX17C also provides standard proportional controls and a standard pattern selector that allows the operator to choose the operating pattern they prefer.

An optional long arm with added counterweight further expands the operating reach and performance of the machine. At just 3,910 pounds, the CX17C is also capable of being transported/towed without special licensing or towing equipment (local regulations may apply). 

Fuel Efficiency

The CX17C features a fuel-efficient 16.8 horsepower engine, providing excellent power and performance with minimal fuel use. 

Comfort and Visibility

The CX17C provides a spacious, stress-free operator environment and features excellent all-around visibility, ergonomic controls and adjustable seating for improved operator comfort. The two-post canopy design further improves visibility.

Serviceability

Groundline serviceability is at the heart of all CASE C Series mini excavators – all main service items (fills, filters, gauges, grease points, etc.) are accessible from the ground and through easy access points.
