Thanks for the videos. I've learned a ton from watching them. Do you think this kit could be fitted for the AGT DM12-C?
I like the vibrator attached to the tank! I was blasting this past weekend for the first time and that was a problem I had quite a bit. I did a quick search on eBay and found they make pneumatic vibrators, I'll do a little more research and use one of those. Trying to avoid running a power cord out too. Would also prefer to band the vibrator to the tank, rather than weld on a pressure vessel. My welds are good, just always nervous about welding to pressure vessels.
Have you tested the 1-ton Chinese mini-excavator Typhon Terror Storm X ?
This is the most helpful channel on these mini excavators. I greatly appreciate it. Does anyone know the adapter size to install the hydraulic oil filter to the oil cooler?
I have an MAVI VA12S. I can't find manuals. The hydraulic tank is on the right side under foot. Is this an H model or QH? Which oil cooler/filter assembly do I need? I would also like to buy the pressure gauge set up. I believe the auxiliary hoses are 1/2" O.D. threads, the same as the boom cylinders. I also want to purchase the flat faced quick disconnects. Thank you. Perfect videos!
how much torque does the auger put out.
You have the best videos about these chinese machines. Really awesome content. Please keep them coming. Any NEW videos coming soon?
Thanks for the information. I have a similar excavator/ 2024 MIVA va13. I ran into a problem with the tracks. Minimal gravel on/in the track, stops moving forward and partial rotating. Is this common?
Thank you. I just bought a Typhon Terror X mini and the digital "manual" they sent does not explain ANY maintenance except how hoften to grease it
I would be cool with you doing regular ‘episodes’ on these Chinese minis. 😎 Also, it looks like I’ll be needing a bigger crescent wrench? 😮
Your information on these minis is pure gold. I’m learning lots from you. Please keep them coming.
there are several vibrators. which one do you sugest?
“Also, if you kill yourself its not my fault” 😂😂😂
I have a few questions about my hydraulic system on my mini excavator and wondering if you can answer? The main DCV has a separate spring loaded nut next to the pressure adjustment valve. Do you know if I can pressure test my system here? I have a picture but not sure if I can add here? Do you have a site where I can send a photo of the DCV?
How did this to mine and it caused the machine to bog light crazy when extending the Dipper arm as if the spools are different
Does this eliminate the need to install push and pull fans that most people are installing? Also, any confirmation yet that this will fork on the ratio/predator engine? Great channel, btw!
can you ship to canada
Does Elk Equipment have a web page? I'd like to buy a few things.
My god these things are twitchy. Maybe you wouldn’t know if you didn’t come from large excavator use. Some decent engineering se the factory could have made them so much better at very little extra cost.
What are the dimensions of the rubber tracks? Thank you.
The LandHero 12 is a much improved mini excavator …
Well done, much appreciated!
I've got one with 2 hours on it now. It threw a track today. I looked at a few videos of how to get it back on and before putting it back on I decided to investigate further. I took those roller wheels off and discovered they look like they have sealed bearings on them, but they are almost impossible to turn. Seems like they should spin freely, so I'm going to try and find an answer to that question. I'll try to find a mechanic that knows about these things and can answer that. I'm thinking the sealed bearings need to be replaced on this new machine? So I took the track off the other side also and removed the roller wheels there, same thing. Also the idler wheels at the front, they obviously have an up side and a down side as they are not symmetrical, one of them was upside down and I don't know which way is correct. One other thing, mine has a cab on it and they bolted the cab on right on top of the hinged hood for engine access so that the cab would need to be removed to open the hood. I solved it by removing the hinges and latches and cutting the hood with a cutoff wheel so the cab doesn't prevent the hood from opening. I also had 2 bolts holding the seat fall out already. Those Chinese, I want revenge!
Just a note, mine didn't come with a notch, I had to cut that out
Every one of these videos is very informative and so clear. I’m only just now getting into excavator ownership (just got an H15 which I’m ordering one of your oil cooler/filter kits in the next few days) but I’ve done tractoring and backhoe for a while and never knew any of this stuff which totally applies there too. . Really appreciate it!
I've been looking at all the various makes and models of these mini skid steers for some time now. I've been comparing track systems with the numerous drive setups, hydraulic pumps and how many, diesel engines vs. gas and all the different manufacturers who make these gas engines, as well as the overall size of the machine. I don't want to make the mistake of purchasing a unit that's undersized or underpowered for what i need to do, even if its for a job outside of the scope of what it was purchased for? I want to be sure that replacement parts are available. So it boils down to doing your homework first before going out and dropping thousands of dollars on equipment that won't live up to your expectations. Don't buy something because you believe it to be a deal when it really isn't. Dad always said, a cheap man pays twice. So true! Thanks for the video. Very informative.
This is one of the
I have a 3000lb mini-ex with 24HP and joystick controls that has a lot of boom-bounce build-up due to the powerful engine, light body and springy joysticks. In your opinion, what would be the best tactic to reduce this; 1. Cushion valve on the boom cylinder, 2. Better electronic adjustable joysticks, More counter-weight, Something else?
Great information I was looking at the H12, now I'm going to buy it.
I was going to pick one up but I see it's sold out. You know when it will be back in stock?
Thanks for the great video. It helps my understanding of my machine. I do have s question if you can help. I have an agt qh12 with less than 15 hours on it and it has become increasingly weaker to the point where it doesn't have the power to steer. I have turned the preasure relief valve up and get a max of 800 psi. Everything works just weakly. Im thinking the preasure relief valve may be bad. I can find pumps online thanks to you ,but have no clue what valve, or type of valve, or the type of pocket the valve goes into. Ive looked online but no luck. Would at least help if i even reall knew what i was looking for. Thanks again.
Which fan did you choose?
Air already comes in on the right side with the motor spinning and drawing air in (the pull start housing). So having a fan on the left side pulling outside air into the engine compartment helps cool off that side and that's where the hydraulic pump is as well. And having a fan blowing on that helps as well.
Thanks. Hope your business takes off huge.
Great information. As a side note. I know of someone who used a four way fitting for the bottom so you could clear any clogs in the fitting. The plug was on the bottom. He also brazed a 4” tube on the bottom fitting for the tank with random holes to allow alternate holes to feed into the bottom T fitting. Really like shaking device idea. What is your progression opening and adjusting valves?
Best time to add a float charger pig tail to keep your battery topped off when not being used.
Can you tell me what the proper battery size is for the AGT H15? Just got mine and battery is toast and no markings on the battery
Just throw the biggest 12 volt battery that will fit and have the proper configuration for hooking up. AGM last the longest and can handle the bouncing
Would the rata engine be about the same?
What is the diameter of the pins? Thank you.
I looked carefully at this video....very elegant design. Great work
Just bought a FF12 and the auxiliary hydraulic lines are 1 size larger than the rest of them and being metric I was trying to figure out what size I needed for the fittings and this video "learnt" me what I needed to know. Thank ya!
What sizes were your FF12 aux lines? Im looking to get new lines made for my hydraulic thumb mod this week. DIN 16x1.5?
@@dillaskew Yes, My Auxiliary lines are 16x1.5 and other lines are 14x1.5 so I had to order (2- MALE 16x1.5 to 14x1.5 reducer unions) to fit all of my attachments.
@@helpallofem4428 Alright! I'm getting my hoses custom made, so I'm assuming i would just get a 1/4 hose with an M16x1.5 female end to attach to the aux line?
@@dillaskew yes. That is what mine are. some of the machines I have seen have 14x1.5 fittings where all the hoses are the same diameter. If your auxiliary lines are larger diameter than your cylinder lines then that is what you have also. So one end will have to be 16x1.5 for the aux fittings and the other end of the hoses will have to have whatever size your implements have which is most likely going to be 14x1.5
@@helpallofem4428 ah understood! I actually custom made a thumb bracket for a princess auto implement cylinder. So my ends are kinda odd there 3/8 NPTF. So ill get my new hydraulic lines as M16x1.5 male to 3/8 NPT male. Thanks for your help!
why did you choose that side of machine to install fans on? thanks
Hi, I just picked up a FF12 here in CT. The one question I have today Is. My hydraulic tank is under floor on the right and it came equipped with a hydraulic filter mounted in the engine compartment mounted to the right , between the engine and the throttle. Before I try to add extra cooling to the engine, I am looking for an effective way to cool it Should add two fans to the shroud or install an oil cooler. Thanks in advance.
Where do i get one of these kits
have you already sold out on these? website says sold out. I missed my chance.
I haven’t gone through all the comments, but that same connection on the AGT H15 excavator is an M16x1.5. I should have measured first. Ended up paying $25 for two fittings, and $18 of that is shipping. Crazy how we get gouged on shipping costs nowadays. Now I have to order for (2) M16x1.5 to M14x1.5 for that connection.
Thanks for this! Was told it was my rear main and I found my turbo pedestal had a narly leak. Saved me a shit load of money man🫡
I have a set of the half inch version that I can’t use if someone is interested. Hit me up
Better question is what do you do about parts if you break a drive motor or break a track anybody know a good site because half of these machines are no name
My keys was tp lock the front cage
I just bought the h12 kit for my QH12R. Will this kit fit or do I need to wait for the QH12 kit?
