Check out this badass grease gun amzn.to/3RSLnA7. Works great on the tractor and excavator.

Glad to see that the beer was not harmed/wasted creating this video. Great video.

Shout out to Keystone Girl. She doesn't skip leg day. He's a lucky man.

Since you are new to excavators, I'll give you a few tips. Make sure you dig over the blade side of the tracks. Try not to dig over the drive motors. It puts more wear on them when you do that. Also, don't ram the boom sideways into stuff. I did that and ruined the swing motor on my bobcat. It sent a bunch of metal flakes throughout the machine and was about a 3k repair.

I got the xh22d and couldn't be happier so far. Is really proving to be a work horse in our landscape company.

Cup holder is the nicest feature

see the thumb as a picking tool, the first tree you pull the tree... there is a way with your bucket. orient your teeth toward the tree, wedge the tree between the tooth and then rotate left or right, then curl your bucket back in order to wrap the tree and you can pull really hard. faster than using the thumb and you wont bend/break it. the last test you did with the beer, i would like to see it faster to compare with Kubota's machine. im willing to work on my machine and to modify them. but im not willing to have slower machine. great video!

You got yourself a nice set-up with those features on the new "Machine" Kyle. Look forward to seeing the "To-Do" list gettin' done. Made quick work of those trees!

Great video! You’ll get there all machines have limits even the Volvo 950 I used to operate. Take your time, be smooth speed will come naturally

Your the metal man, make foot pedals for the travel sticks, you will not regret it, feet and hands together will get lots more done, it's fun to.

Really like this channel. This guy is like the fun Camaratta uncle.

plz include some part numbers or links for the 3 way assy for the thumb & accessories. Can't wait for next vid on this machine

I am purchasing the xh20d i am hoping to be able to upgrade it to 2 speed motors. It has the left stick side swing on stick but i like the idea of the right thumb being claw pinch.

Great review. I think the upgrade to the joy stick is gonna be the bomb. The stock one bites. The extension on the tracks is awesome. This machine is like stuff from harbor freight .. not always a top pic for some. But will do what you need it to do for you. And at half the cost for home use. Looks like a great deal. Excited to see you making more videos on this. And by the way I am in no way saying anything negative about harbor freight. Love some of their tools. And some are one times users 😂 I have both 😊

another great video! keystone girl on point... 👀 nice job! and i'll bet she can pickup that little bucket too!

I may not be the first one to say it but for safety as you are digging, your push blade should be towards your digging area, it will prevent you from flipping forward for the most part and it will also help to keep you in place as you dig. I really do like how that machine looks and operates, you did do a great review on it, and can't wait to see what's next.

Good looking machine. We just bought a sany 35 and love it

I'm sorry. Did you have a can of beer in the bucket. I was distracted!!! :)

I am a little late to the show just found your channel love it is kymron going to up grade to joystick thumb functions for the hydraulic thumb and boom swing thanks Pat

Your antics and falls make me 😂 nice machine look forward to seeing more videos of it working. Sounds like you did alot of research and ate confident in your choice.

Should make a video of your excavator and tractor. I’m a sucker for equipment. Great video

Looking forward to more content. Great review! Nice cup holder!

great review. totally agree with your advice. I also can't afford a big brand but Kymron is excellentfor what I need .

I'd like to see a ripper tooth for the small machine for stumping. That and a rake

I have zero personal experience with an excavator but tons of KZfaq experience as research and preparation to purchase one for our property. With that being said I would consider some sort of front windshield since you are digging towards yourself and sometimes heavy things let loose at a rapid pace flying towards the cab. Something to consider.

I need to call k and r and become an east coast repair tech for them.

Good luck with the machine! Looks to be a nice build.

Every time I say or hear 'machine' now, I curse you just a little bit. 😁😆

I swear, I cannot get through one of your videos laughing out loud and feeling Happy. OMG! Thank you so much for the Comic relief. 🤣 I love what you are doing!

Man i appreciate your brain. Looking forward to this projekt. Totally subbed.

Hi I think my Sunward is better control setup but maybe it is more expensive 😊

Looking forward to getting a uhi ume28 or the ume25

Where are you getting the 3 way valve? I've got a 1 ton mini and would like to make this addition but can't find them.

Just checking if you had the time to work in the joy sticks project, I am waiting for my excavator to be delivery but unfortunately in my case the use of the joy stick to use the thumb is not and option but a need since I got into an accident and became paralized from waist down. I put some hand controls in my tractor but in the excavator the joy stick will be perfect

What is the hydraulic flow rate? For the inexperienced the more you dig/rip around the tree the easier the stump comes out. Home use good, for the family ranch use questionable, then again new is much less costly for less than commercial machinery.

Great work on the video!

Start your own brand of machines. Call the company MACHINE

Almost like a kubota u17

Unfortunately I live in Maine and to have it serviced would be a major challenge. They need to expand!

Awesome machine, great video man! Waiting to receive mine on Nov 7th. Exact same specs, although I'm sure our hydraulic pumps, walking motors and Rotary Motor pump are different. I was already looking to swap out the joysticks too. Pretty cool to see you're wanting to do the same. Rototilt has some bad ass Joysticks that are also designed to be used with their tilt rotators. The R1 looks pretty sweet.

For a few thousand dollars more I would definitely get a Takashi tried-and-true has either ISO SAE and I’m sure it is much beefer

I think the machine will be great. Your upgrades will make the machine much easier to control. I personally hate foot controls for movements such as the thumb. One question I have is, can the pressure of the thumb be made adjustable? This would be a great feature handling smaller wood items as not to snap them in half. Might be a feature you could add while changing some of the valving. Just a thought. Thanks for sharing.

R U gonna add foot pedals for the foreword and reverse drive sticks??

She is absolutely beautiful and gorgeous

This seems like a commercial for these excavators. I'm really intrigued by them, but curious to see if they actually withstand time.. since resale is likely to be significantly less than name brands. Looking forward to more vids on it!

Great videos! Your a natural at this. I can see your KZfaq channel blowing up. I just picked up the Kymron YH20D and am impressed with it so far other than a bug or two I’m working out. Keep them vids coming!

Kyle, thanks for your review of this kymron. Because of your review i am purchasing one through Ron now. You should get commission. LOL. I hope that you do videos on the upgrades. Once again great video.

I enjoy the channel……… I have a JD110tlb it does a lot very well but it’s a backhoe…..I understand the want of an excavator……seems like you could have bought a good used backhoe that does more than what you bought. Seems like a lot of work and money to make it how you like it…..maybe it was for content???? Best of luck with it. Respectfully, Guerry

Another great video to you and the keystone girl. I’m liking these “machines” more and more. I really like the XD 65. I hope it is available with rubber tracks as well. Can’t wait to see more of this “machine” in action as well as the upgrades.

The China machines are very tempting for the prices, but with all the work and cost to import especially a larger machine I'm still more interested in the used good market. There are plenty of ex rental machines or 1 or 2 owner machines that you can get for a good price with minimal wear and tear

it actually looks very expensive!

Hey bud how is the machine going? We hope to get the exact same one in a month. We are traveling from Virginia and will travel 9hrs to the Indiana location.

How many acre's is your new property?

thats a good beer holder...

2nd video watch by you found out your from Hoosier state and I here from eville here can't wait to watch more

@SpicerDesignsLLC Did you ever replace the joy sticks with thumb controls for the hydraulic thumb and side to side swing? I would be highly interested in seeing this upgrade.

Is it really that slow or is that just because you’re not used to it? Really slow hydraulics can be frustrating to say the least.

Didn't the the dealership owner say that this was a machine built in the United States? Kobelco excavators aren't easy to get repairs and parts.

Great machine!! What it's price in India?!

Nice review. Keystone girl needs to lose the shaded

It is almost the same as the Cat 301.8 but blue

been looking at these and from a year and a half ago when i'd only seen a few vids of european folks picking them up for homestead stuff from the ports..... to now... wow. explosion of imports. and finally i mean no offense but i feel that if you got a warranty from that dude in OK and he will legit stand by it for a few years of trouble free operation then its probably worth the price you paid, but if you can't just dump it back over there and take a new one if this one breaks then no. these are importable for around half what you paid, maybe a little more if its truly a yanmar diesel... although i may not even be that worried if its a knock off yanmar simply because the chinese knock off motors ive come into contact recently that are actual good copies of things like kawasaki motors etc have been actually very good quality. and like i said maybe the price premium is worth it simply because you don't have to dk around with transferring money to china and communication and importation stuff... so all i'll say is: get an oil analysis after 20 hours or so or whenever you do the break in change and get a clean catch sample. i believe blackstone labs might even be in your state or nearby. and do an engine oil/hyraulic fluid filter cutopen to make sure you didn't get a dud thats throwing a lot of metal into the system. odds are its probably fine but CYA. if i was dude in OK selling those i'd take each one and put 3 hours on it or something before i sold it to make sure. i've seen a bunch of photos on alibaba etc of the different suppliers of these and their similar but subtly different units they ship... this one looks like one of the better ones. at the end of the day all i can say is at least some of the IP theft thats gone on in the last 15 years re chn is coming back around to benefit the american consumer, so i suppose recouping a small amount of value in that way. cheers on the excavator

It needs a flail mower test.

Next video we need to see less you and your Chinese MACHINE and more of the Keystone girl. I really like her personalities 😅

I bought a takeuchi TB 230 with a Tag thumb out the door tax and everything little bit over $40,000 Southern California. Maybe I just got a great deal or a Chinese machines are not that great of a dealdeal

2:00 Well, they could've closed the hospital while you were filming the video, What were they thinking? Da....It's a no brainer.....

im new to this channel! you are so silly and beautiful woman !

Not interested at all in buying the machine - just like machines and your machine videos. Time on machine will make you even better. Good job on the beer challenge.

How price per unit

Why is it that when someone calls your company for dealership opportunities you ignore them. Guess my money is not good enough?

Цена

This is disturbing... pretty sure anything on that would interchange with my Kubota U25.

30k for a 4500$ machine.. word eggplant comes to mind

Why do you keep vailing down as an act? It's looks stupid! Other wise you have very content.

How can you give your opinion on a machine you can't even operate 😮

Traders buy Chinese junk

First 30 sec I left video.
