Hi all and welcome back, apologies for the lack of videos, ive not had a great deal going on recently.
Today we are on a job where a friend of a friend asked if i could operate a micro excavator inside a house to dig a floor out which i was happy to help out.
I will admit that the little Kubota micro digger is certainly a lot nicer than my Chinese Mini excavator. If possible id like to put a 3 cylinder in mine and i will keep an eye out for a used 3 cylinder engine and see if i can do a retro fit into mine.
Thank you very much as always for everyone who watches and supports the channel. You guys are always awesome.

Great one Nick the little diggers get a lot of use where I live because builders used shale in the floors which expands and blows the internal floors up its cost millions up here to replace full floors

I used to work for kubota, their quality control is amazing, I would highly recommend their products

Definitely get the Kubota. I have a 1.5 China mini. But when it came time for the engine, told them to keep that Koop junk and put in a Kubota. I want a D722. Said no can do. We can though, put in a Kubota D902. Told her Sold. Great engine and like you said, way quiter. Money well spent. You will not regret that money for a Kubota.

What a capable machine. One day, I want a mini, but where I am at they are ridiculous expensive, even the worn out ones. Talking $30,000 and up for used. If I could I would have a Deere, Cat or Kubota. Wouldn't touch a Komatsu as I have seen too many things fail on them.

Hey Nick

I wouldn't bother fitting a better engine in the digger you have. Sure it'll probably fit and you might even get it to operate but by the time you spend all the money/time on the engine, cooling system, bell housing adapter, possibly new pump, hydraulics, engine mounts and electrical system, you could have flipped it as is and bought a decent chyna digger with a kubota already in it.

I did and it paid for itself very quickly…..I can go where I didn’t even dream of going before which where it pays for itself..

Hi Nick, I’ve just been doing a job with a three cylinder engine in a Chinese digger and it was mint so powerful 👍🏻

U10 3 excellent machine bought one for similar job. But I would say if your doing it correctly you should be putting a limecrete floor in with geocell insulation underneath and NO dpm as all you are gonna do is push damp up those walls Which look like clay lump to me. Otherwise good job.
