Advert Description
I purchased this from new [see receipt] in 2019. Fully working.
It's been used most years, but only a few occasions each time. Not used in past 2 years, hence reason for sale as I can't see a current use up and coming. It comes with the 2 buckets visible, but there is a third medium sized one I should be able to locate and include in sale, along with the 'pincer' attachment.
It works and nothing is leaking. Engine is a pull start, and starts first time and runs nicely. It comes with an almost full 20lt drum of hydraulic fluid [see photo for level indicator and filler point]. No problems with the tracks.
The reason I like this excavator are:
[1] It can fit and be put on my unbraked trailer due to its lower weight [595kg]
[2] It was new a cheaper than second hand excavators with who knows what wrong with them
[3] If you just need to tear up some ground, it does the job well and beats hand digger any day
The reasons I don't like this excavator are:
[1] It's low weight! It is a powerful beast but you have to be careful especially if not on stable flat ground she [has to be a she] doesn't tip over. It happened to me once and a PITA to right again as the carburetor flooded etc.
[2] It's 'twitchy' and if you've used a more refined excavator will find it difficult for delicate control and digging.
happy to answer questions, and for inspections
