It fits through a doorway. Full stop.

We're not being dramatic. The KATO 9V5 Battery literally fits through a standard doorway.

Basements. Indoor demo. Backyard jobs where the gate is the only access point. Renovation sites where diesel isn't an option and the ceiling is a real constraint.

Roll-down ROPS. Expandable tracks. Under a ton. It goes where every other machine on your lot has to wait outside.

Aux hydraulics standard. Attachments run. No compromise on capability.

A rental category your competitors may not have stocked yet.

Hard to keep on the lot. KATO HD25V5.

We're not saying the KATO HD25V5 practically rents itself. But rental stores that carry it tend to have a hard time keeping it available.

The KATO HD35V5 didn't get participation trophies. It just got better.

Zero tail swing — the two-minute explainer your customers need.

Dealers hear this question from customers constantly: 'What does zero tail swing actually mean?'

Here's the short version to share:

With zero tail swing, the cab rear stays within the track width during full rotation. That means:

✅ Work right next to walls, fences, and vehicles
✅ No radius math before every swing
✅ Safer operation in busy or tight work zones

Every KATO V5 mini comes with it standard. Easy to explain. Easy to sell.

Tight site customers? The HD60V5 was made for them.

Zero tail swing means the KATO HD60V5 gets to work right up to the wall, the fence, the curb — without the customer calculating swing radius before every move.

V5 4-pump hydraulics keep attachments fast and responsive. Fuel-efficient enough to run all day.

Easy to rent. Easy to justify on a dealer lot. 🟠 katoces.com | (800) 538-1447
