Unbelievable this dinosaurus is still working. I have seen it on 22 September 2016. The T174-2 is the "Trabant" between the diggers. The nickname of the excavator was Onion-Puller because it was often used in the agri business. But due the lack of smaller excavators for construction many of these machines have been used also from construction contractors in the GDR. The lifting capacity was just 2.5 to and therefore the small machine was often working on its limits. It occured often that a unit was wobbling over two wheels and some fell over. The last units were produced probably in 1986! The engine was a 2-cylinder Diesel with 34,5 hP. Drive operation was with a manual 4-gear transmission to 2 or 4 wheels including manual diff lock.
In my early days in work I operated such a monster for a while. Soon I was looking for another job since the work in such a machine is not at all good for the spinal column.
