Congratulations Einar! Looks like a great unit. It's nice to see your boys helping their dad. Brings back nice memories of me and my son working on projects when he was their age.
Did you get any extra attachments? What was totally cost to door? It a perfect size? Does have extendable tracks? And pivot boom? I don't need encloser/cab. Just roll bar with roof. Thx great video
@@mad151maxx4 You can see all the details in the ordering video. There are so many different hidden fees. They are all broken down in the excel spreadsheet. ua-cam.com/video/jfaxFafO8uc/v-deo.html
It is really good that you are teaching you young kids how to do work properly if they odnt learn while they are young they might have a harder time pearning when they are old
I cannot believe how many negative comments you've received. Obviously a lot of these negative comments those people have never owned or operated one of these Chinese machines. I just bought a 2000 lb Chinese machine 2 days ago, and I am so impressed with it . I've had too many family members come over and run it for about 10 minutes, and now they're going to get one I got mine for 4200
Hi Einar, how delivery works from the china? Do you need to pick up it by your own on the airportl / port or there is a possibility to deliver it to the front door? Thank you
I put out a follow-up video where I collected it and how it was done. However, you can get door to door delivery as an option. I didn't know that at the time and not all sellers offer it
@@einarmikkelsenPNW My 2ton has a full cab- with an ac unit hanging from the back as well It was also shipped with an auger, jackhammer and an extra bucket all was in the crate. My cab also has a door that locks to the cab in the open position with a latch. I thought all these were prettier much the same. It is a hightop model and look alot like the ground hogs sold by a dealer here in the USA
It takes 2 forklifts to load. First forklift places the end on the trailer, second forklift goes under the other end, then pushes on the trailer. They should have known that.
given what you know now from your experience buying, waiting, importing fees, and minor repairs on the excavator would you do it again? was there money saved? was it worth the extra hassle? and would that be offset if in the future you sell and recover some of the cost? for example paid the $25K waited..... few hassles used to build the house resold it for $20K in a year
Jeg vet ikke hvor mye du må betale for å importere til Norge men jeg kan tenke meg at det er mye. Du må også finne ut hva slags motor du må ha for å få lov til å ha den i Europa. EPA motoren jeg måtte ha kostet flere tusen dollar ekstra.
Du kan se prisen i denne videoen. Den var ikke så dyr i Kina, men så ble det mye ekstra kostnader når den kom inn til Seattle. ua-cam.com/video/jfaxFafO8uc/v-deo.html
I mean the majority of parts are going to be off the shelf components so great for people that diy repairs. You can swap out the motor for anything remotely similar (a motorcycle engine would be a killer swap in) in a couple hours. Imo better for repairs than something like cat where everything even bolts are proprietary.
@@einarmikkelsenPNW hogging with a digging machine is a slang way of saying you stick the digger into the material like it's already loose, grabbing full buckets in one go. The advice I received is that you should use the bucket and teeth to break up the soils in smaller passes, then grab broken dirt with the bucket to move it. One thing I noticed about this strategy is that it's less likely for the bucket to create a vacuum against the material. I think it's also less stress against the joints which reduces wear on the bushings.
You always have to be careful. Check out the company's history. I have tried to search for companies that are Japan-based, to get around the 25% tax on China, just to find out that their factory is in China.

Thank you. Yes, I like to keep them busy. Why let them use the angle grinder for 15 seconds when they can use the framing hammer for 15 minutes 😂

I am extremely happy for you. That the machine works great! I am thinking of starting a construction company in Haiti.
It is really good that you are teaching you young kids how to do work properly if they odnt learn while they are young they might have a harder time pearning when they are old
Thank you for your kind words. They have free access to 90% of my tools at any time.

I know. All my issues are minor. Love the machine
Yep they are selling them here in Houston for $4200 without the cab
Damn! How? Of course, mine is a lot bigger than that, but it is still an amazing price!@@JuarezDerrick

Man, mine came 100% complete in one crate. Luckily I haven’t had a single issue with it yet after 22 hours
Mine was going to be fully assembled, but it was too tall with the cab.

@@jamesdarr6714 that's what l want but electric
@@darrenegginton9842 Im still a bit apprehensive on electric stuff, it has came a long way but I don’t think we’re quite there yet
@@jamesdarr6714 what's your concern
Any relation to Mads?
I don't know Mads.
Is closed cab hot in sun?
Yes. Crazy hot. The fan is not enough. Windows open and fan on is better. Clothing is optional.
Why did they remove cabin
Because the excavator with the cab is too high to enter the container
That is correct.
It takes 2 forklifts to load.
First forklift places the end on the trailer, second forklift goes under the other end, then pushes on the trailer.
They should have known that.
Thanks! 🙏
Check the oil in the belt gears. Often it is shipped wihtout oil
I will.
Whats the Name/Brand Excavator for those of us who would like to order one?
I have links to the company in my ordering video:
ua-cam.com/video/jfaxFafO8uc/v-deo.html
People keep comparing this to used models, yes you can get a reasonable used one for much cheaper, but this is *new*
Thanks 👍

I think so. Love the machine and use it almost daily. Only minor issues.
Info on what happens at port and paperwork would have been helpful
The previous video covers that 100%
How much did it end up costing you

Kul maskin! :) Tror du det er rimeligere å importere til Norge?
Det vet jeg ikke noe om. Det var 25% import skatt til USA. Vet ikke hva det er til Norge
Nordman i Amerika?
Ja det stemmer. Bor i en fake norsk by også, Poulsbo.
Va roligt, tänkte väl att jag hörde norska :)
@@einarmikkelsenPNW Ser fint ut, lever i fred og ro der nere, tenker jeg.
Any Chinese equipment there's always room for improvement that makes it a lot better
Check out the 50 hours of operation review video.
This is informative and thank you for this. I always wondered.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for all the video's. Subscribed
Thanks for the sub!
Some journey you're on here, name brother Mikkelsen!
Yes, this should be fun
And when you buy something from them make them bring it to your door you say from your door to my door how much
I'll give that a shot.
Flott gård og gøy prosjekt!
Takk
Takk for din video. Jeg har tenkt og kjøpe en gravemaskin til Norge fra China.

Hej du norsk härligt =)
Är någorlunda nöjd? Vad fick du ge för den 200000kr?

I do not believe the excavator can pick up one of those big logs. I just don't believe it.
The biggest ones were dragged on rollers, using rope, skinny logs, and the Tesla. The smaller logs were all moved with the excavator.
You must be a skandi? Dansk eller Svensk?
Enda bedre: norsk
junior har grei kontroll der 😄👌
Takker. Ja han blir bedre og bedre 😄
And in the middle of the video, someone switched to Norwegian - I guess that shouldn't come as a surprise with that name ;)
Det stemmer. Jeg er fra Norge og kona er fra Sverige. Barna snakker begge, pluss engelsk.
the bucket teeth are better design compare to other UA-camrs mini chinese ex
Thanks
SAFETY GLASSES
They are important.
Neat stuff
Thanks 🙏
Take it easy on that machine, don't hog it. Grease all pivot points daily. Pray you never have to make a video re getting repair parts from China.
I am babying it. Taking it easy, warming it up for 10 min before I drive, and let it cool off when I am done. Grease every time.
I mean the majority of parts are going to be off the shelf components so great for people that diy repairs. You can swap out the motor for anything remotely similar (a motorcycle engine would be a killer swap in) in a couple hours.

WHY DOES EVERYBODY CUT DOWN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TREES ON THEIR PROPERTY ? Honestly I think it is DISGUSTING !! Actually Demonic and evil
The old growth is on the back of the property and left behind.
Chines food is fabulous ,Chines equipment not so good,
I'll give you a 6 month and 12 month follow-up. Only a few issues so far. Nothing big. And I do love that MSG!
EbikeSchool would disagree they got their farm truck for 16mo now and they are pretty satisfied
@@ddjohnson9717 That is great news. I have been very happy!
