I own one of these machines reduce your rpm’s you don’t need all that power to move some dirt your jerking all over the place low rpm’s makes these machines run smooth and powerful Excavating isn’t a race
a 750 lb rock is going to take 2 big fellas to put in place so that is a hard one to answer. If you are talking 750 lbs is the weight then yes this unit is a hair small. If you are talking a 2 man rock which is around 350 lbs and still heavy as heck then they would be able to do those.
@@groundhogequipment Maybe it is an east coast, west coast thing? But a two man rock would be your base of a rockery wall up to six feet tall. The definition allows for the use of long crow bars to place the rock and out here, a two man rock is 18"-28", 200-700 pounds, per WSDOT (WA State Department of Transportation) definition. Sometimes you get slightly more dense rock, hence the 750 pound limit. What would you recommend or placing such a rock in very narrow, highly confined areas?
If my ZH20D traveled that fast I would be even happier. I'm sure it would travel faster if I would push the engine to 1/2 throttle instead of the 1/3 that I run it at, however I prefer longevity over speed.

I have the Groundhog Kh14 and love it. Very powerful and well built machine
another nice machine.

Just curious. The hydraulics look jerky to me. Is there a valving system that could smooth it out rather then reducing the power?
Yes sir, we noted in one of the videos how this unit was turned up pretty high so you can turn down sideswing or pressure as you feel comfortable.
How will a 1 ton machine with 13.5 hp handle a 40" bucket for material handling and fine grading?
It'd do great with grading but depends on the material, a full bucket of stone wouldn't be functional.
Interested if it can place a 2-man rock (max 750 pounds)? Too light of a machine?

Do you have diesel engines?and in your opinion does it make a difference what it’s power by for power
We offer diesel and gas options

The throttle cable can be adjusted by the heel kick panel on the platform, you just need to slide it up or back as needed.
BOY are you smooth but that's a jerky machine ????????????
