Used 20-Ton Excavator for Sale in Nigeria: What to Check
A used 20-ton excavator can cost far less than a new one and still do years of work, provided you check it properly.

Larger machines generally travel on a low-bed trailer, so check the route, bridge limits and site access before choosing the tonnage.

What to Inspect on a Used Excavator

- Cold-start the engine and watch for heavy smoke, hard starting or low oil pressure
- Operate every function under load: swing, travel, boom, stick and bucket curl
