Second time on the mini, dug a bunch on ditches.
The bad; First, the machine gets VERY HOT. So hot, I was worried, and gave it breaks. We ended up taking off the back panel. It helped a lot. The heat was able to get out of the compartment. It was a pain to unbolt it, very little room and had to take 5 other things off to get the panel off. Second filling with gas definitely needs a long funnel, have to keep one onboard.
The Good: it’s funner the more you get things done. I was able to move 3 different functions at the same time by the end of the day.

Buy a surecan gas can. It helps. The heat is the bad part about these Chinese mini excavators.

Drainage is so very important. Once you manage the water you can then manipyit to your favor if you need to. 😉👍

I have a bunch of ditches to clean out. The amount of water might be enough to create a pond if the ground can hold it.

you definitely found the operator skill level, practice makes perfect sense.

Thanks, I probably have non stop projects around the place to continue to learn. I already want a giant excavator!

A super siphon or a $10 transfer pump from Harbor Freight would be easier for your gas transfer😉

Swing boom is a nice feat I wish I had on mine! None of them are perfect I guess. Lot better than a shovel though!

Yea, I got more done with this in one day, that would’ve taken weeks !

can you elevate the seat 1/2 to 3/4 inch to let air out but not rain in?

There’s only a couple hinges to flip the seat up, I think it’s best not to put any stress on those. After I took the back cover off, it allowed air around the engine. It seemed a lot better.
