Great videos! Wish I had watched before I got crash course on the jobsite. I found out the hard way that those things are easy to topple when lifting loads. Luckily I was swinging slow and kept the load close to the ground so it didn't topple the machine but it was bloody scary moment and dangerous. Few inches more or any sudden movement to the wrong direction would've done it. Was stable enough to get the experienced guy back in the cab to save the day. I would like you to have an episode on the mini excavator about those dangers. Say having a chunk of concrete or a boulder pinched with the thumb and swinging or placing it. Something safe for you to demonstrate the dangers for new operators. Many thanks!

I also operate with the blad behind me where possible. It definly feels more stable. I guess because the load is spread across the blade t the back and not the tracks which can pivot around each point, if tht makes sense. With the blade on the same side as the operation, it feels like the base of support is smaller nd outside the centre of gravity

Hi was just interested because my son is having some work strating on Sunday and this might sound strange to you or I guess you might understand. Am mainly having a look because I want to show my animals what it looks like and the sound of the machinery while it's working so they won't be scared or traumatized by the equipment and the sounds. They will be a bit close to it so that's the main reasons why am looking at the video. Thanks for the information great video also. Ps. I have two macaws 5birds 1rabbit and two dogs yea so I just want them to be comfortable when the work is being done. And they are some very smart animals all of them so they will understand after I play this vedio for them. Have a great weekend.

when you are moving the machine with the tracks how do you prevent oscillation? When the machine "rocks" it causes you to lurch forward it back which causes you to extra push/pull the track controls and so then the machine lurchers and it causes more oscillation. Your arms are not resting on anything when operating the track controls so it facilitates this problem. The problem is less when using feet.

@HeavyMetalLearning
@HeavyMetalLearning 4 жыл бұрын
does it have the backhoe (boom swing) option? You would see a hydraulic arm at the base of the boom if it did. I can't say I've ever seen a mini-excavator that didn't have it? Depending on the model/size, once they get larger they don't have that. And for the controls I've seen both foot controls and joystick operated so you'd have to check your manual for that.
