BUYING AND UPGRADING A CHINESE MINI EXCAVATOR

- In this video I buy a cheap Chinese Excavator, and make some affordable upgrades. I start with a hinged engine cover to make maintenance much easier. I add a piano hinge to the operator's seat for quick engine bay inspections. I also replace the grease fittings, battery shut-off switch, install an additional cooling fan and more!
Looks like a decent machine. I was going to bid on one at an auction near me. Trying to hold out for one with side swing. There was one model there that had it, Infront brand, but it was completely unusable. No matter how easy you were on the sticks it was jerky to the point it will self destruct in short order. I like the upgrades you made.
Thank You! Yes, this unit has been surprisingly adequate. It's definitely worth holding out for one that you like. Especially if the price for these machines continues to decrease.
Nice upgrades, just need a cup holder now.
Good Idea
love ur video so my love to see 1 ur put 1 video a week not a year haha 1 subs for the quality u got
Haha that's fair. I've been working on a large project that will have two videos, which will be out soon. The videos will be more consistent moving forward. Thanks for sticking around!
wish I had a need for an excavator
Maybe one day!
You handsome

Looking at getting one of these, do you think it could pick up around 800-900 pounds like a car engine???
The spec sheets I've seen say around 500-600lbs, but I've seen videos of them lifting much more. The closer the boom is to the machine the more lifting power it will have. An engine hoist may be a better option.
@@beavercreekbuilds Thanks for you reply, loved the video, I have a engine hoist but on the ground I work on a engine hoist just don't cut it sometimes.
@BarnacleBoyFishing i have one of these excavator. It would not do well I don't think. I've pulled a few engines and an engine hoist or chain fall is so much better. A forklift would even be so much better. These excavators are great for digging in drain tile and such. But not really even good for picking up debris unless your trailer is really low sides.
@@ifyoutip Thank you for the information! I’ll be exploring other options. I have chain falls and an engine hoist, but there are times when the vehicle is in the dirt, making them less useful. They work great in a driveway, though!
Nice updates!
Thanks!
