The swing boom is your friend. You don’t need to move your entire machine side to side to dig a hole with square edges. You can also see around the boom much better. Your counter weight along with the blade behind really works well. Thank you for sharing!
@@moonwalker8172 thank you for your comment the reason I was having to move the machine was because I had to clean up the side of the hole because the machine doesn't have much side pressure the hole was sloping in which is why I had to get right in front of it and scrape the edges
@@moonwalker8172 I actually have a cushioning valve installed with the relief set to 1550 I should probably turn it up some to get more side pressure out of it the problem is if you let it be wide open it has so much pressure that you can actually twist the tracks underneath the machine because the undercarriage is so light perks of having a Chinese machine 😂
Have you had any significant problems with your machine yet? I've seen others who've had issues. I am considering buying one but hesitate. I am mechanically inclined so fixing things is not such a big deal if they are not catastrophic.
So no major mechanical problems if you're using it as a hobbyist and not commercial use it's probably good right out of the box because we're using it for commercial use I have upgraded the cooling system for the hydraulics I have added a 60 amp alternator and that 160 lb counterweight that you see hanging off the back but as far as physical failures I can't break it I have hung a thousand pound trailer off the end of the boom

@Steven-h33 right on man thanks for responding. I appreciate the info!
I bought 80 series no problems so far knock on wood. I had it a couple of months. Dug enough dirt to haul in and fill a hole the length of my house
