- This video is about opening the crate and unpacking a
Harbor Freight towable ride-on trencher #62365. It will give anyone planing on purchasing one a view of what to expect.
Crate is 90" long, 42" wide, 30" tall, gross weight 1144 lbs. THANK YOU FOR THESE DIMENSIONS! I have to go pick mine up at the freight terminal now I know which trailer I need to take.
They are a fun toy. Enjoy yours. Thanks for watching.
you are amazing - wonderful video - what a gift
Thanks for watching.
I just bought one of these and I want to thank you for this video. I found a nice cherry picker to help put mine together.
Enjoy yours. Min has been a great little digger. Thanks for watching.
am going to buy one but can't decide which one. Did you guys consider the jansen ME-300 towable backhoe?
I really enjoy your videos! In fact, although there was nothing comical about the video, your voice reminded me of the narrations on the Red Green Show (which is Hilarious). You might think of doing a sketch of similar comedy just for fun. Could be a real fun time for everyone. 👍
Thanks. I hear that all the time. We used to love that show on Sunday afternoons. Thanks for watching.
Are you still using the HF Backhoe 6 years later? How it been working out? Couldn't you have just torn off the crate around it instead of lifting things out? Im I missing something?
Still no problems. Beat it up pretty good with some big stumps and the pins are a little worn. Modified it to take the DR buckets and ripper tooth in another video so I have 8, 12, and 16 inch buckets along with a ripper. Also built a thumb for it. Can't believe I haven't broken anything yet and the secret is don't anchor it to anything because it has the power to tear itself apart. A good little digger. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for the reply. I'm really close to buying one. Wish it had an auger attachment.
You can get one of the small Chinese excavators with a hydraulic auger if that's what you need for a reasonable price. I have a 3pt one for my compact tractor and it's handy when I need it but sits unused most of the time.
Mine came with a bag of seals. Are these necessary for install or just extras? They look like seals for the hydraulic cylinders.
They are extras to rebuild the cylinders when they start leaking. Thanks for watching
@@unemployedredneckhillbilly2023 thanks for the quick response. I was pretty overwhelmed when I started putting mine together today but your video was very helpful. One step at a time lol. Have a good day.
Any recommendations on how to assemble it without a lift like you have? Am just starting over in life and a trencher like this would be sweet on the homestead.
3 strong friends would do it. You could also use a come along if you have rafters that will handle the load. It has been a great little digger. Thanks for watching.
I have pulled car engines with a come-along and a strong tree branch. Pole barns are fairly inexpensive to build.
Did you consider the Jansen towable backhoe and if so, why did you choose the harbor freight? I am going to buy one but can't decide which one.
The only 2 that I knew about were the HF and DR. With the DR $6000 it was a easy decision to go with the $2500 HF unit. I have gotten my monies worth from it so far. Thanks for watching.
Are those boom arms 4 by 4?
How long do you think it will take to deliver to Idaho during Covid.?
How would I know. Call Harbor freight. Thanks for watching.
7-20 days if the item is in stock at the new equipment warehouse. If the item is on backorder, or has been delayed due to ship off-loading issues caused by US dockworkers being union people, delivery could be 4-6 months or more. You cannot buy one of these machines at a store, and if you are a ITC (Inside Track Club) member, you must contact Customer Support and place the order through them so you can get the ITC discount. So, before ordering, have the support person check stock status: If in stock, OK. If no stock, actual delivery time would be anybody's guess. In addition, if you plan to make payment via debit card, make sure your financial organization will allow an amount greater than $2,500.00 USD. Also, pay the extra $40.00 USD and get the liftgate service.
Mine took 10 days from the moment I ordered until it showed up at the shipping terminal in my town. It all depends on stock availability.
Good job, thanks for making this video
I thought that I would let others know what they are in for if they buy one. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the video I have a question since the day you place your order how long it to them to drop it at your house I just bought one and am just want to have any idea when it will arrive
Mine took a week to ship and 3 days to get to NY. I have seen comments where it has taken longer for others. I have really enjoyed mine so far and worked it pretty hard with no problems. Have fun with yours.
That's a great video after I saw this video I order my online....one last question how long and wide is the stretcher with out the arm just platform...
What do you mean by strecher? Are you talking about the main weldment before any assembly?
Why not just take the crate apart around it and assemble where it sits?
I tried to keep it together in case there was a major problem and it had to be packed up and returned. Thanks for watching.
Great videos. Keep em coming.
Thanks for watching.
What was the weight? Did truck have a lift gate?
A lot. I did not pay for the lift gate and made a video unloading it. Check the website for exact weight because the crate is over 1200 pounds. Thanks for watching.
1,178 pounds including packing. Lift gate service is $40.00 more, paid through HF Customer service.
Could you put it together without a forklift like you had?
Yes, you would need enough help to move the parts around. Just cut the crate apart so you can slide the main frame off. A cherry picker would be a big help. I love mine so far.
Mine was scratched and dented less than yours and the manager gave me the option to return it or he said he'd give me a $100 gift certificate, so don't think that you just have to accept dents and scratches, they'd much rather give you $100 than take it back!
I just had that 1 dent and the rest was pretty good. Didn't take long for me to scratch it up pretty good. I was so glad to have it that I never thought about trying to get something for the damage.
can you share link from website where you ordered? thanks
It is from Harbor Freight. Search for trencher on their site.

Many thanks my friend. Unfortunately no international shipping to EU :(
It is just a generic machine from China sold by Harbor Freight. I bet the same machine is sold under a different name in the EU.
How much
Check out the Harbor Freight website for current pricing. Mine was $2500.00 + $100.00 shipping. Thanks for watching.
Where are you located?
NY
How much indian cost
You would have to check with Harbor Freight and see if they deliver to India. Thanks for watching
how much that it cost
It was $2499.00 with a coupon they emailed me.
So far it has worked great for me. I must say that I have had just as good luck with Harbor Freight tools as the Craftsman tools that I used to buy. Thanks for watching.
next time disassemble the crate to only the pallets.
I would have had to cut it up to get it apart and I didn't want sawdust in everything. It was not just placed on a pallet, it was all plywood strips with metal straps. I just took the chainsaw to it after it was outside.

Better off getting in the crate and kick it apart, wow people like to putter around...
Remember the turtle won the race. Thanks for watching.
