ha ha used one of these 35 years ago they were what you could get before the tracked jap machines arrived they looked slow but were able to dig trench ie french drains but you had to be carefull as you do with mini diggers they were red name is gone
I have something similar. its a Powerfab 125WTD it dates back to the 70's and can be towed behind a car, they also made smaller ones pulled around by there bucket I find it rather useful for trenches etc.
.
More info about them and lots of other aged diggers can be found at OilyHands Powerfab Page
I used the Powerfab, Called the Mantis.
I used one in the 80s to put a drainage system into an old grass tennis court. The first line was wavy, the second less so and the last two straight. You use the the slew to manoeuvre the machine.

I just love the blade/leveller extension, 74 swipes later and the 1m x 1ft trench was filled ! LOL
my blokes would dig that trench quicker and neater by hand!
Not for me..... looks too jerky, too unstable. You'll never beat a 360 degree excavator.
or a spade and elbow grease
