I was suppose to have a quick hitch when I bought it but it didn't come with it. Until I get that sorted out I want to change buckets.

If you have no quick hitch on at all then you will need to take out the 2 pins connecting the bucket on every time you want to change buckets. I would recommend greasing them every time, once you've changed buckets. I could probably do a video for this at some point if it would be helpful?

Turns out it's a quick hitch, just a very new design that doesn't use a pin, it stumped the Kubota Teck until he figured it out So I'm happy with it as it is a quick hitch + I can put my buckets on in reverse (be handy in the cemetery). Dave

@@davidharris3823 ideal. Yes some jobs are so much easier with the bucket on backwards 👍

Thanks Steve 👍 Hydraulic filler cap should be under the bonnet, opposite side to the fuel filler.

Yes once you have a hydraulic hitch on one machine it's hard to not want them on everything! Yes wrap would be a good Idea 👍 though some customers seem to be able to damage anything... 🤦 Does it look un-greased? Everything gets greased before it goes out on hire - but I also hate overgreasing as the grease needlessly running down the arm and smearing everywhere really bugs me 🤣🤦

Lol, sorry it's not meant to be annoying. I'm afraid I'm only learning what works for videos 👍

No problem 👍

No worries 👍

You're welcome, glad it's been of some use 👍

Around £20k I think

Sorry I don't know as it came with the machine. Try giving your local dealer a call 👍

Great 👍 Greetings from the UK

Nice 👍 Once you've done one rubber tracked machine they're all pretty much the same, just they get very heavy for bigger machines!

👍

Yep 👍

@@bearplant always handy them

@@lukestarling6810 yes I run a few thwaites. They seem decent machines

@@bearplant speaking as a groundworker they are by far the best and reliable dont skip a beat and everyone I know in the trade prefers thwaites

Would be nice, but not worth it for a hire machine 👍

Great 👍

True! 🤣

@bearplant I'm in the process of buying a Chinese mini excavator , I think will follow ur tips in this , do you know more less to what pressure is this solenoid rated ?

On all the Kubota machines I have - yes no problem 👍 There are certain types of quick hitch an bucket designs that it doesn't, but they're not so common.

Thank you!

This machine has a whites hitch on it 👍

Thank you. Will have to look that one up. Is that standard pin cofig or convert to S30

@@patrickjohannik9554 as far as I know it's standard. I think that's the make Kubota UK fit unless you ask for something else.

Thanks

Thanks 👍

Nice, yes it really is a good machine. I'd love another but they keep going up in price!

That's interesting. What make was the hitch? These pipes actually broke after about 20 hours of use but after replacing them and routing them better on the arm, they seem to have been ok since with no problems

It is a china digger and hitch. Smaller arm as well went on top of arm which is ok but out of the hitch they cam out the side instead of like yours Ollie is cute lol

Ok, yes these pipes are tucked reasonably well out of harm's way - but stuff happens! As for Ollie... he's a cheeky monkey like them all 🤣

Thanks 👍 The hitch that was on it was made to take a different size pin setup to a standard one for that machine, which was a pain as it meant it wouldn't fit other attachments I had for other identical machines. But actually buckets and their pins (especially when they're welded into the bucket and you can't change them) get worn out and sloppy aswell.

Thanks. It's out on it's first hire and the customer loves it, especially the collector. 👍

@@bearplant Wow that's awesome to hear! -Jesse

Yes it's a 24". They handle them ok actually, no more load weight than than the grading bucket 👍
