Well done!!! The more you use it the easier it gets. I see it didn't take you long to figure out the best way to pull something out is with the bucket curl instead of the boom or dipper lift. Took me several jobs before I did. LOL
I guess that depends on your size. I'm about 5'11" and it's comfortable for me. I don't have to stretch my arms too far to the point that I feel I'm leaning forward. Although the seat isn't hi-back, it's comfortable enough for me. I suppose it's comparable to sitting at a desk and writing or seating at a table to eat. I've seen some people extend the levers for more comfort but this works for me, at least right now. One issue people might have is bouncing around when working with heavy material. It doesn't bother me, in fact I think it's kind of fun. But it might be annoying for some people.
The problem I had with the cylinders blead down 2 of them did that but it was a easy fix took them apart and tightened the nut on inside and they worked perfectly after that
DONT GET ONE OF THESE- you will spend hours and back breaking work, just to switch to tow to work and back again - that is a days work . Terrible design

Thank you! Yeah, I learned that bucket trick from you and others on youtube.
I also plan to go and switch the hoses for the boom like you did. I have the same problem with it seeming backwards.
Why not keep it connected to a truck/tractor?
Brochure says it has an 8 foot reach. That's a long 8 foot.
how comfortable is this thing to run?
