What XZ12 is bought for
1.2 t. Fits through a 1.0 m gate. Bought for landscaping, trenching and interior demolition where a larger machine simply cannot enter.

If the load is lighter but the access is the constraint, the frame below is the one that fits through the door — capacity is rarely the only variable.
