He's also lucky the left side didn't drop in the ditch instead of the right side. He would have been trapped because the door wouldn't open and probably would have panicked even more! HaHa
My KX040 was delivered Monday May 22, 2023. My only experience prior to delivery was 10 minutes at the dealer when I looked at them. I really hope I can get the mechanics of this machine down cause it was awfully pricey. I got 12 & 24” digging and a 48” grading bucket with mine. Have Fun!
You can go to the Kubota website and "Build My Kubota" to get pricing. The base price for a KX080 is around $125k. Then the sky is the limit on accessories and attachments depending on your needs.
*Ripper/Tyne While that bucket is in new condition, 'hard face' the lip (flat plate between teeth) and the top of the adaptors (the part of the tooth that is welded to the bucket and are the mounting points for the consumable teeth.) and the shins and leading section of the walls. (The edge of the plates that are the vertical walls of the bucket. *Hard facing is a specific type of welding that is extremely hard wearing and resistant to abrasion. You just weld some beads to the surface of the steel to create a 'armour' that protects the surface from wear and can be re-established when it eventually does wear down.
Very funny video, but you really need to fire Rusty. He is just going to be one problem after another. Does he think money grows on trees ? Property is coming along quite nicely !
Thanks for the Happy Birthday shout-out! 😊❤ (Clever to show Comet Troy as Rusty Springs. 😂
Thank you for your support and we appreciate you!
Troy great video! Very informative and funny! Also had a nice view of lot 23 at the start! Rusty sounded like he had a frog in his throat!
We didn't even realize we captured your lot! Glad we did!
Huge difference between operators from coast to coast. I guess pay scale says it all!
Happy to see Rusty was wearing his helmet closer to his head! This could have been much worse for him! 🙂

Look at it this way, at least now it's broken in. Should be able to work it hard now !
😆 🤣 😂

That's a great idea and something we've never heard of before. Thank you for the tip!

It's been considered.... believe us! We think he just needs to be treated with empathy and kindness. We hope he'll eventually come around!
Experience worth paying the higher wages. A true operator will check fluids too before starting Machine. Rusty would be in the unemployment line.
He's doing a good job, relax.
He could of been injured! Did you even ask if he was ok? He could be traumatized for crying out loud! Cut the guy some slack!!!
Man, Rusty needs to go back to excavator school. 😂
That was back on Feb 12, it's now May 22 and he's come around quite a bit since then!
Lower the boom as you come off of the trailer
Rusty, Rusty, Rusty! lol
I wouldnt let that guy anywhere near my machine
Edges of ditch not clean and dirt falls back into ditch while tracking. Dig and track backwards. Simple engineering. Lol
“Destroys”? - Actually surprised you made a insurance claim? What was damaged/repair cost?
He can come out easily he's really not in a bad predicament it can come out easily
Have kx040. Smaller machine and I don’t fall in ditch. Hint-dig in front and back up while digging. Hire an experienced operator next time.
Use the pedals to rotate the undercarriage.
Jesus git to the point
You talk a lot, and say very little.
Thank you for your support!
