How can I become a dealer in Covington Va
Fill out the form at the bottom of this page and we'll get ahold of you within two business days groundhogequipment.com/dealers/
All your R&d is being used against you. You might work directly with them but they don’t work directly with you unfortunately
We have a close and productive partnership with our manufactures.
Music doesnt mesh well with the video
How’s the longevity for these Chinese engineered units + kubota engines?
They are very durable machines, We have some machines going on 4 years of use.
Look all you dart throwers. I think the guy is being real and honest. If you don't like his product go buy what you have the money to buy
So I’m in the market for an excavator about this size. I’ve narrowed it down to either a Bobcat E35, this machine or Kymron’s XH42 equivalent. It looks like the same basic machine as this. There’s things I like about this better. It seems like you do a better job with hose management on the dipper stick. They aren’t popping out everywhere like the Kymron. The other thing you do better is you offer a pattern Control selector and I’m a backhoe guy. There’s really 3 things I’d have to address either from the dealer or me fixing myself. I just don’t know if it’s possible. 1) The main thing is I need a thumb that hinges with the bucket because I’m gonna be picking up lots of brush. And I need a beefier thumb on par with the name brand machines. While I appreciate that these come with thumbs, I’m gonna be really using mine so something made out of 3/4 inch or 1 inch steel is a must. Do you plan on working to get a better quality thumb maybe as an upgrade? Possibly a thumb control on a joystick switch instead of a floor pedal? If not, what do you think about someone fabbing their own beefy thumb? I’m a welder so I can build one but what about getting longer pins to run through the same pivot as the bucket? Are they standard size pins that I can maybe get at a name brand dealer? 2) Do you think if I were to install an aftermarket suspension seat, if that would raise the seat hight up too much? I’m 5’ 10”. I realize you offer the SH36 with this feature but I need to keep my cab height no taller than 8’ 3”. 3) Third is, does this model have a cup holder anywhere? Such a simple question but Kymron won’t even give me an honest yes or no answer. And if “no”, do you see a place anywhere in this cab where I can mount a simple screw down cup holder? I can’t drive to see this machine so I have to rely on dealer info and every video I see seems to show as little can footage as possible. If not, I’m kinda forced to go with a Bobcat, Sany, Kubota, Case. Any name brand that I can go in and see. At this price I’m not expecting it to be on that level. But I’d like to know I can upgrade that stuff myself with a little work. Especially since I have the ability to weld and fabricate. I’m not great with electrical stuff so Im not sure if adding a thumb switch on a joystick is gonna be possible.
Thanks for reaching out! We do offer a beefy thumb bucket, We are working to offer more thumb options for our machines but nothing else yet. You can fabricate something fairly easy, while the pins are not widely available but can be purchased through us or online. We can do joystick thumb controls. If you were to install a higher seat you'd have about 6-10 inches of room to work with. It does not have a cup holder but I recommend a suction mounted cupholder.
@@groundhogequipment Hey, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions. That’s a huge factor for me. So just to make sure, if I wanted to order a pin that’s longer in length than what’s standard, you’d be able to do that? If so, that’s great. I’d just use the thumb that comes with the machine while I fabricate a new thumb that hinges to the bucket pin. Then just slide that longer pin in to accommodate the wider thumb.
We can make almost any pin you'd need
So which is it starter or switch? If you can start it with push button.
The ignition switch would be the problem in that case
Whats the total lift weight?
safe operating load is 700lbs while tipping load is 1200lbs
@@groundhogequipment are these specs listed on your website? I am wondering about the 20 series as well.
Not all safe operating loads are listed, the 20's are around 900lb safe operating load
@@groundhogequipment thanks for getting back to me!
I'm absolutely amazed that people are paying this kind of money for chinese crap. With only a 1 year warranty. And you get the privilege of changing the parts out yourself. I guess the old addage of a sucker is born everyday is still alive and well.
We don't think of it that way. We work with our partners to bring a stronger machine to the US market with a warranty, US based support and we keep almost all parts in stock. We're also here to support the chinese excavators owners as well with parts, attachments, and service.
what is the gas?
Nitrogen
Lots of great features.
On your larger BH40D machine does the blade have "Float" function for back dragging? Thank you
It doesn't have a float function, the zh70d does have that option
@@groundhogequipment Thank you
Nice machine and i understand the need for a quiet machine with no exhaust that being said id be very leery about that bomb they call a lithium battery theyre selling the whole machine for half what the battery costs in a name brand digger how about one that runs off 220 that can be plugged in with a long chord instead
Thanks for all your videos! This looks like an awesome machine. Thanks for your staff too. Over the past few days i have shared emails and talked on the phone to Clint, Diana, Tasha and Maddy. All of your staff has been extremely responsive, informative, courteous and above all patient. All this combined gives me a lot of confidence I am dealing with the best company. I am very particular in choosing a company to business with. For anyone considering doing the same I personally, highly recommend the folks at Groundhog Equipment LLC.
Whats the best machine for the money if you could only have one. All around best size power etc.
The KH25D at $23,900 comes fully loaded, If your ok with a standard machine the ZH24D-2 would be a great option.
That’s the same charger I charge my house with on overcast weeks. Can you specify what lithium technology is used in the batteries? Lithium ion is now a pretty vague term.
Lithium Iron Phosphate Single Cell, Rated Voltage 3.2V, Rated Capacity 100Ah, Standard Continuous Current 90A
Can you charge at 240vac or higher voltage? Is there any intermediate or long term feedback from users?
240 and under only for charging. No long term feedback yet. We've made some adjustments since the first run to improve the overall mobility
I would like to see some of these machines work on a slope. Mine will run down a slope quickly if you’re not careful.
If they didn't upgrade the chassis, a high torque electric motor will just tear up your excavator that much faster.
The chassis is reinforced on the electric units
How long does it take to fully charge the battery? And how many hours of work is it capable of doing on a full charge?
6 to 8 hours of work 8 to 10 charging
6 hours working, 8-10 hours running, and 8- 10 charging
Do you have a dealer in Washington State?
We don't currently, the closest would be our dealer in Wisconsin.
Your transparency and honesty as a businessman has made it a no brainer to do business with you.
Making a machine for him is some serious big brother shit! ❤ Touching video with an Awesome Machine. Well done.
Dude. These New Machines look way sicker than the Big Name Excavators with the big name Engines. Killer Branding and obviously the factory is getting their shit together. And literally Half the price. No Brainer.
Dam good salesman and thoroughly explains what I wanted to hear. Terminology and painted the picture for us. Looking into these machines now.
Are the drive motors 310? Is the swivel motor a 250 or 315?
I still like the orange the best
What are your best sellers of groundhog over the 1 ton models
The ZH24D-2, BH20D, BH40D, and ZH70D
Jesus just put that dink in the bed of the truck
How much is the electric unit
$19,900
Great video. I couldn't remember how mine was tied down when it got delivered other than he used chains around the frame and the boom was strapped down. I wondered how to best tie down if I used straps. There is a guy in Florida that sells a drive motor protection bar where you can install a D ring to tie down with. I have seen videos where new owners back the minis off and dang near flip over backwards then attack when told how dangerous it is. I load boom low and extended in front of me and turn with boom tucked in close so to unload with boom low and extended in front of me. Right or wrong that's how I have not flipped yet.
This is a great machine.
Can the 40 run a Prinoth mulcher head? Their small one or the 450?
M350e would be for that size machine
Hi Nick, your mini diggers are fabulous, How to contact you please
570-837-1003 or 570-765-9338
Over 25 hp, does it have DPF?
these do have DPF's
Which one comes in at 15 gpm?
The LT25-2
Looks like a knockoff of the 35 size XMCG ~
Similar body but we work with another factory in China to develop our units.
Can you tell me about greasing the turntable and slewing bearing, how often each one, how much and which fitting goes to each one? I've heard you can damage the bearing with too much grease.
At least every 50 hours, You can't over grease the slew or turntable.
At 3200 lbs, of course it can go through a 36 inch door, even if the door was still closed.
from 3:30 to 5:30 all i heard is BRRRRAAAAHHHHHHHH
LOL! LOL! LOL! hey Nick, here's a couple of suggestions for your next video. 1. DON'T try to talk over the machine when you've got it revved up to red line; 2. go find a dirt lot somewhere to film your skid steers. you can't run any tracked skid steer on pavement without it looking like it trying to destroy itself.
We'll keep that in mind
These are just rebranded products from China. Gonna be a little more difficult selling these for such high prices when Derette and other factories are doubling down on their US/international sales directly from the factory. Why would I pay $22,900 for something I can direct customize via the factory in the same time frame (if not quicker) and have delivered to my door for $10,000 cheaper? Crazy you posted this today, do you not keep up with the mini skid Facebook groups?
We do our own work with the manufacturers, We're in the groups, this is not the same machine and it comes with a US based network of dealers for parts and warranty work.
@@groundhogequipment Tell you what, I have a stock v1000 shipping over right now and I don't live too far from you. Would you be willing to do a side by side comparison to prove it your machine isn't the same? If so I will retract the previous statements.
Great mschine 👍👍👍
Could I have your WhatsApp for communication?
Can u add grapple
We do offer a grapple $1,295 and a brush grapple $1,395 for the stand on units
Safety squint engaged!
Nice looking and shows potential but its still extremely jerky. If youre going to tell people to add something later to make things smoother, maybe you guys should add them and that’ll give you an edge over others ;)
Rather have a kubota. I have ran a few. They are all strong machines. I know leave boom out farther on kubota in pick up test and the boom was in closer to the cab on yours when you picked up the kubota. Kubota looks to be more user friendly. Even though it not as "strong". Kubota will do anything you ask of it and run all day. I have run everything out there. Kubota is one of my top picks. I just bought a kx41-3v. Strong little machine.
What is the price
$23,900
