I had to rent a small excavator for a drainage issue on the farm. Ended up being this unit

It's about 4 colors, feel like it was the love child of a full sized unit and a peacock.
Seems capable enough, I think the pressure relief is set low, but I understand why a rental agency would do that.
Never run One before... Getting used to it. Would be a lot easier if I could see and not be running on voice commands from my ground man.

That run on "C" batteries or "D" oke:

Is that kick start or rope start?

[You may never have heard this but many women have told me....]

"I've never seen one that small". :wave:

 

[David Brown]

You look too happy there Alan.

Wind up, actually.

Actually, I felt a little funny playing in the sand with my Tonkas, this is close and socially acceptable.

Hahahaha, it's little, but it's cute..

I see one like that running around town every week. Belongs to a plumbing and heating contractor.
Sure has to beat a shovel all to heck!

You could have rented this nice red and white one. The guys aqua jacket has to go, though.

That's what she said................not to me of course.

 

[crittersf1]

Looks like a phone booth with a malignant growth!

Then why were you there when she said it?!!

I ran one made by Bobcat about that size. I couldn't understand why it had so much slop in all the bushings.

Had my ear to your bedroom door, Rich :wave:

 

[MH81]

Running along fine,
Transit in place, getting run, about 50 yards done.... A WHOLE bunch to go.

 

[LilysDad]

Had my ear to your bedroom door, Rich :wave:

>sighhh< Jeez, you gotta get a life!

:bigrofl: Guilty as charged, Rich, guilty as charged!

It's about 4 colors,

That was made for the Asian markets as I understand it. My Kubota RX502 is almost the same colors and was imported as a Grey market excavator. The relief valve is set so you don't overload the machine. You don't have an extended counter weight so it isn't too hard to pull yourself over or into your own hole.

They are fun to operate.

I got some video footage of Alan:

Smallest one I ever ran was a 303 cat. We usually rent a 331 or 337 bobcat at work when we need to do things that the backhoe is to big for.

 

[toomanytoys84]

I rented a little one a few years ago to dig up root balls left by shrubs. It was a beast of a little machine. I did not want to give it back. I swear if was a komatsu but not sure. Yellow and grey

 

[Cat385B]

Yellow and grey and starts with a K could also be a Kobelco, but Komatsu is more common.
