Buying a new Mini Excavator / Maintaining Forest Roads - Takeuchi TB217R

- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2024
- I've been looking for a 2nd hand mini excavator for few years, to maintain my forest tracks and build new atv trails. Everything I've looked at is over priced or worn out, so I decided to buy this new, discounted, last years model Tb217 It's a great little machine
...Buying? Who are you and what have you done with Marty? 😅
👽 🤖 🤷♂️
Nah, he buys all the time. It's the "new" that confused me. 😁
lmao
The tetanus must’ve got him
😂😂😂
*_You mean to tell me that for all these years he ain't "bought " a "New" piece of equipment...??!!... Haaaaa...!!!...Ain't no way...!!!..._* 😂😂
I'm so glad you could rescue this machine from the dealer. ❤
😆
I've seen so many machines just sitting derelict at dealers. Lined up ready for action, but nobody uses them there. It's a shame...like a machine graveyard. Wonderful Marty could 'save' this one and put it to use! 😉
It's part of a long project. He's going to abandon it in the trees for 30 years so his kid has something to restore.

Can't think of anyone more deserving a new piece of equipment more than you Marty.
Totally agreed. The effort and work he's put in it's so good to see him able to get a return on it all.
Amen!
It made me so happy lol 😭😍
The tilt bucket is a game changer 😊
I wonder if he'll put a thumb on it?
Yeah need more info on that
Definitely need a good hydraulic operated thumb if available for this excavator. I don't like the "mechanical" thumb adjusted with a pin.
Is certainly a game changer, especially if you've never had the option 😅
With the millions of worldwide viewers that your channel attracts…I can’t imagine that ALL the equipment companies aren’t fighting each other for the right to send you free equipment.
Well said sir
This video has 15k viewers
Well there is a difference between sending a 4000 euro laptop to someone, or a 3000 euro camera, versus a 40 000 euro excavator.
@@gs1100ed just wait
@@gs1100edProbably didn't mean just this video
What a difference in that road.
Congratulations. All the best from CANADA.
This New Zealander spends more time on his camera angles than hollywood
Agree...hoolywood have a lot to learn from a pro😀
Marty T doesn't have an against-common-sense-and-centuries-of-past-experience agenda like Hollyweird is desperately trying to promote.
I wish Hollywood created content even half as good as Marty does.
Hollyweird all drugged up freaks
You're a dried up piece if drift wood that's splintered I reckon. Correct your tone
I first watched your video when you converted a dead washing machine into a lifetime supply of free electricity and I hope that your YT work has helped you buy the new excavator - you deserve it !
Thanks mate
holy shit me to, how kool was that!!!
Is this click bait?! Was it a scratch and dent discount?! PURE MADNESS!! Seriously though you definitely deserve a new machine!
Well done Marty you deserve something new for a change. Not that we don’t enjoy you repairing old things it’s just nice to have something new for once…John
I remember finding this channel from a search of eel video's. Glad I stuck around. New Zealand is nice and comfy.
Micro hydro
I think the electro atv was my hook
Mine was the Abandoned Excavator, my jaw hit the floor as soon as he got that excavator up and running. I subscribed immediately and have watched him ever since, has not disappointed me with any of his videos. He deservers all praise 😊😊
@@taxesdeathandtrouble.1886 i found him through angry ram myself, so glad I did!
Must be a welcome change to operate a machine with no slack or slop in the bushings! We all love your stable of well-used iron, but you deserve this - just slip it on like a pair of trainers and go! Outstanding brand, as well!
Nice to have new things sometimes. You kiwis love your takeuchi's!
They really are damn good machines.
Takeuchi are to compact excavators like Sony is to portable CD players, the OG
Europe/scandinavia loves takeuchi too. They are top of the line, user friendly and hold the value!
The grading bucket with tilt is so useful
Pivoting bucket assembly is a game changer,congratulations.
This will definitely be the kids new favourite piece of equipment.
I bet they'll be excellent operators before they even have a driver's licence......
Leave, Same or Better, Everything
Be Kind
☮️🙋🏻♂️
I would of thought you found an old mini-ex in a forest abandoned and you get it running like a Dream. Bring it home and use it.
But for all the old equipment you get up and running , as well as put back to work. You deserve this brand new mini excavator.
I am surprised Takeuchi has not seen your channel and given it to you for free. 😂
Takeuchi is really good stuff. I had one of their skid loaders and it was great. Never had a problem with it. Enjoy your new machine.
I did a lot of research and couldn't find many complaints
Glad you finally got new. But I do love the repair videos too.
Congrats Marty. Cheers from this side! What a sweet machine!
Congrats Marty. I know that lil machine will have a well maintained and never abused life.
Nice acquisition Marty-you certainly deserve it!
Can't wait to see the Mrs. take a turn. It's hard not to smile when you run a miniex.
Nice buy, Marty.
The thing I find the most hilarious/intriguing is watching your equipment, vs your utes on the tracks...
I would question taking my F-350 single rear up these trails...
A huge part of why I watch!
Glad youtube and life.are treating you this well!, but I prefer "pre emissions" everything personally.
I can well imagine the many hours this new addition to fold will work and all done with Marty 's beaming smile 🙂
Congratulations on the new toy. To clean the uphill side of the road, you can rotate 30-40 degrees the arm with respect to the platform and have a better angle of attack of the bucket so that you attack parallel to the road. Thanks for the videos.
It's weird seeing you drive something new, but you deserve it. I never grow tired of your videos, Marty. Your knowledge of machinery, easy going nature and love for your family makes for great content. You are a true gentleman, and I salute you.
I am impressed by the machine & the bloke using it. Well done & I bet you were smiling in yuour sleep after buying a new machine. Cheers from Aus
Love your videos sir. I was just in NZ a few weeks ago visiting my daughter at university of Auckland. Such a beautiful country !
Excevator footage in time laps always looks so cute
Marty,
Very cool handy machine. The operator did a nice job as well. Thanks, Boe
I was going to have a dig about all the existing equipment that you could have used, then saw the narrow track. Nice save!
I'm fairly new to diggers and hired one for the first time last week to dig some trenches and some tidy up work at home. Super easy machine to learn on and very versatile. Money well spent mate.
I'm impressed by the small size. No more raking leaves forever!
Great job renovating this excavator. You did such a great job that it looks like new.
Congratulations Marty! I don't imagine there is a more deserving mate out there.
Good for you!
I do love to see a Marty T upload, but I've become convinced that Kiwis spend %50 of their lives clearing and grading roadways. New Zealand seems like a beautiful country, but I don't think I'd last 6 months, I need my asphalt 😁
It's OK, we have motorways, traffic lights, and proper roads, but Marty lives in a remote area.
NZ has vast areas of countryside where there are almost no people, so we have plenty of dirt roads too.
Plenty of asphalt in the cities, so you would be quite safe there, but not as happy. 🙂
They are all moving to Australia....
We used this model excavator at the Council works - awesome little machines, especially with the tilt bucket. They do like to throw their tracks once they get a bit worn though.
Given your land's verticality, modifying the Yan to match the Take's bottom blade would be a good idea. They are indeed much more stable with longer reach. There's also another mod where you add two extra winglets (controlled by an extra cylinder) that extend and dig down when the blade's in the ground, giving it even more stability.
In your hands Marty, this wee beastie will run forever!
Very nice addition to the farm. Congratulations, you deserve it.
It is pretty amazing what you can do with a mini excavator. There is an old guy that has been building new trail through wooded and rocky terrain at a county park nearby. It is able to get in to very tight spaces, and build the trail without leaving much evidence of it's passage other than new trail.
Congratulations on the new equipment.
Congratz. The rotor tilt is a handy thing ☺
So nice when you finally grow out of hand-me-downs!
Nice! The tilt bucket is a really nice feature for you to have given the type of work needed on your property, Congratulations!
Must be refreshing to grab a fresh one thats ready to work instead of the usual restoration work
You bought a NEW machine!
Wow, that is Sweeeeeet! You have earned that. I have watched you cobb together broken machines for years., it is nice to run a new machine!
Nice piece of equipment. Seeing you on something brand new is different but it sounds like it was a good deal. I'm glad you got it.
New gear! WTH! 😆😆😆. Seems like a bit of a beast Marty! Well deserved, nicely done! 🎉🎉🎉
hay m8 to reduce the speed of the tilt bucket but not affect other attachments we normally aneal back a grub screw drill out to the appropriate size start small and work you way up . we then drill and tap the hydraulic fitting before the quick release (bucket side ) and thread the grub screw in works a treat. you normally only have to do one side
The flow control for the auxiliaries is already installed I see from 5:27 in your video. If you put your hand a little higher...that is one of the two flow controls. You need to close it a long way otherwise there is no control. Use a spanner to do this. It may be very stiff, in particular when you got pressure on it. So stop the engine, wiggle the foot control to release the pressure and adjust. Also, to remove the hoses, you also have to release the pressure. Say hi to Kendall from me.
That's a great little excavator you have there, the tilt function is awesome
That’s one lucky excavator
Love it!!
Moves my soul to see you "treat" yourself to a new machine ❤️❤️🥰
Wow buying new equipment, we have done well. Not as much fun as restoring the old girls, but no doubt much needed where you live. Good job 👍
Imagine - Marty T with a brand spanking new machine!! Couldn’t happen to a more deserving man. The love you put into those old machines has come back to you and the machine gods have said ‘Give that man something new!’ Glad to see you have that.
MartyT, congrats on ur new Takeuchi Tb217r Mini Excavator. looks like it will do the work on the dirt road..
Nifty bit of kit... 👍👏😻
These mini excavators are great, they are just the same as the big fella's, so easy to operate, they even come so small now the you stand on them, Looks like you scored well with this one, hope lasts. Thanks for the video.
Dude this is some top quality digger ASMR, thank you 🙌
Very satisfying and relaxing road maintenance. On a new guy no less! Nice.
Marty! How could you? A NEW machine? Where is the rust and grease?
Congrats mate, you deserve some equipment that you don't have to muck about for hours just to use it.
Enjoy and be safe!
Cheers
Terry
Its awesome to see you with some new stuff you work so hard good job
That brand is very popular in the states--Very well made and last a long while !! Good purchase !!!
Nice score Marty. The first thing I noticed was the swivel bucket and expect it will be a godsend for the seemingly endless track maintenance work you have on your hands. Looking forward to seeing the track work up to the turbine. Thanks for sharing and cheers from across the ditch.
Nice to see you with a new piece of gear. Taking it home and going right to work without having to sort the issues which parked it so long ago.
Glad to see you treat yourself to this little gem Marty, with your attention to maintenance, I have no doubt it will last generations. Enjoy! ;)
Aww Marty got a new toy and he having fun testing out🙂🙂
You've certainly earned it!
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Nice machine Marty, now all it needs is a thumb. I love the viteos on rescuing old equipment . cant believe some of the things you go through to retrieve equipment. but at the end the effort was well deserving. take care Brother
nice bit of kit. these are incredibly popular in the uk for obvious reasons
Sweet little rig, and with the tilting grading bucket! Great for road and ditch maintenance.
Congratulations 🎊 👏 Marty!!
Nearly 500k subs.....lets goooo! Bloody legend!
Congrats on the new excavator, Marty! It looks like just the right tool for maintaining your roads, etc. Enjoy!
Please do make the video of improving the track to the turbines! That would be a grand video!
More than deserved Marty, this machine could not have fallen into better hands, I wish you success and may this machine serve you for many, many years.
Nice piece of equipment Marty, I have always thought that you needed a better access to your turbines. That will be an interesting video, thanks for sharing.
this is novel! You bought a new machine. Wow 😃
Nice views of your forest , you don't want a repeat of the wasp incident ,LOL. Look forward to your next installment. Two thumbs up.
I saw the word NEW and my brain locked up! 😄Congrats! She's a beauty!!!
I'm happy for Marty man
Hello Marty. Congratulations on the new buy. I do enjoy watching you take an older machine and bringing it back to life. Have good days!
What a lucky little Takeuchi! It's gonna be used as intended, and maintained so well
Nice machine. Something I have never figured out is why the seat and controls don't have a cover to put on them, yes I know they are made for outside but it seems that would protect the electronics at least.
Nice little excavator. Only suggestion would be a thumb for it.
as much as i like the old machines, all the extra features of the modern machine really does speed up the work.
i think i recognize at least three discreet machines this new one is doing the work of, all without you getting out of the seat.
Congratulations, with new you get peace of mind and reliability. You work your machines hard but not recklessly, this machine ought to be a welcome addition to the fleet..☮️
A new excavator doesn't need repairs. But there's plenty of ways to modify it. Congrats on the new purchase.💪
Thank you for turning off the back up beeper 😊
Best mini ex on the market great buy 👍
Enjoy the newness Marty
What a beautiful machine. How many of us are hoping it breaks down quickly so we can see how Marty fixes it ? Only half joking...
Congratulations, if anyone deserves something new it's you
7:39 I've rented a few of these excavators for some small projects around the house. They're pretty decent. Pulls out small stumps and rotted material pretty well.
Nice 👍, it will keep it's value unlike a car.
Got'a stay ahead of the rain, ah Marty!? Nice machine.
Very good choice in the Takeuchi. You should have years of trouble free service from it as well as it's ability to perform like a bigger machine. As far as it being last year's model, that doesn't matter in the least. Good luck and enjoy
Sweet machine mate. Know a local contractor who has been running one for years, went for takeuchi over cat. You deserve it!
Congratulations!💪
I was surprised by the new but he needs something he doesn’t have to work on all the time. I hope he’ll keep making his repair/ rebuild videos, I’m sure he will.
