    Thoughts of a Mini Excavator

    All their yellow SHY dealer series machines are a notch above the others with excellent support. I just heard the redesigned SHY20 is coming out soon and it will be a true US 2 ton machine where mine is a Euro 2 ton machine that's about 3850 pounds with a slightly smaller undercarriage for...

    Thoughts of a Mini Excavator

    I got to borrow a demo Chinese mini skid to help me decide if one will do what I want one for before making my final decision. What a little beast and the mulcher so far does a great job. My wife saw it working and told me I should buy one 😲. She's a smart woman 😍. It's a couple year old...

    Electrical advice concerning Jump pack usage and back feeding .

    I use a Milwaukee m18 8ah battery to run a winch like that that I turn my snowblower chute with. Bought a Milwaukee battery mount with wires on Amazon and it works with a 40 amp fuse and 40amp auto relay wireless remote. Not sure the load on your winch but found the 18 volts lowered the winch...

    My neighbor has a big Ferris and my Kubota cut is better and more even.

    Kubota Z422KWTNC-60

    My dealer told me the Z726xkw3-60 was the entry level commercial machine so that's what I bought. Love it but really thinking about one with suspension and not just a suspension seat now.

    Thoughts of a Mini Excavator

    I went through the same thing over a year ago and after much research bought a Huayee SHY20. It is a dealer sold series with the best support of the offshore brands. They are built with higher quality components and now have a nationwide dealer network. Kubota diesel engine with warranty through...

    Too fat/lazy/old to unlock your SSQA?????……..Then follow me ;)

    Designing on Alibre first can save many headaches in the end. Napkins are old school and provide more surprises along with rework 🤔. Either way usually takes the same time investment in the project. Napkins provide us with more entertainment though 🤗.

    Can anybody recommend a Dingo to SSQA full size adapter

    Yes that is the type and it says that it has 3000 pound capacity that would work. Thanks.

    Can anybody recommend a Dingo to SSQA full size adapter

    Not sure if anyone has tried this. I am looking for an adapter that will allow me to use my full size attachments on a dingo mini skid steer machine. I see mixed reviews and only 1500 pound ratings on the ones I found so far. Want to be able to use my tractor grapple and forks on the mini skid I...

    Edge Tamers....

    That's what happens when you're over twice the price for an item that is built heavier then most need. Kind of like generic drugs save many lots of money once the patents run out with the same results. Our leaders have pushed for a global economy for years and most manufacturers have switched to...

    Well they changed them then. Probably why mine were on clearance 😲. They change things lately as they switch suppliers
