Hello everyone so I sold this machine when I got the thumb on but I’m going to be buying another one and as well as adding a thumb I also am adding an electric A/C and heater combo to the next one.
I saw in the comments you sold yours. How many hours did you put on it? The only thing I can seem to find online about the NT45 is people buy them at auction and sell them. :D Highest hours I've seen anyone say they have put on one is 5 hours haha. I'm tempted to buy one but there is zero info out there on them. Curious how well yours ran and how many hours you put on it before selling.
Thanks for you effort!!! Much appreciated. I see that Agrotk sells CFG and quite don’t understand how they relate. My question: CFG KU 45 is 3.5 ton and 45 HP CFG 40 UF is 3.8 ton but 24 HP and about 5 k more expensive!! Why ? can’t find anything …. I understand heavier ( just a little ) is better but power is so different!!! Appreciate help
Look into the bigger machines like CFG 35 or 40. They come up on Ritchie and Bar None auctions. A lot more heavy duty and track spacing and size seems wider for better stability.
That's because the importers want to double their money on each one they sell an auction you can get it a little cheaper but good luck trying to get some kind of warranty claim
I'm a tall man,so my main concern besides the technical aspect is driver comfort! As a big man,like you,do your knees hit the front inside the cab,and it looks like there's not a lot of room to get past the controls! If you had to jump out in case of a situation, would you have to wiggle around the joy sticks? Does the seat act like a Bostrom truck drivers seat,adjustable with shock absorption? I've reviewed a lot of these , they are or look like the High Top ,relabeled and they will relabel the ones you buy! Did you know if u buy 10 u get them at a discount! Some 1.2 tons are just 600$ if you buy 10 or 20 at a time! But just 1 is 4500 us ! Plus shipping and tariffs and brokerage fees! I was told if I wanted a better machine by one Chinese sales ,was I should buy a 2 ton or better! I told Hihh Top there machines " move like turtle speed!" In response to thst,I was told you can order the .8 or 1 ton with either a dual piston pump to go faster versus the unit with just a single hydraulic pump! So they did a video of 2 HI Top (Its rather HI Top,or HI Top) racing across the floor ! Well these machines dont move much faster at 1.2 kilometres ,and there's a lot of bs from these dealers,and a few look like scammers! Most have too short a track on the smaller units,for stability,and I noticed the bucket in your that mini doesn't ( in agts web video,)go back far enough on the bucket! I've looked at these 1 ton for 2 yrs and they hall have minor differences! Most .8 or 1 or 1.2 ton are a 1 cylinder unit. They used to list all there specs and engine choices,not so much now! I was bombarded with sales requests through Alibaba and made in China! So if you want a better machine go above the 1 ton ! Nice machine you bought, did they say how fast it can travel across ground?
Could I talk with you on the phone about your purchase? I am interested in the same machine and would like to know how it's working for you. I'm in the Seattle area. It sounds like you are too.
Just curious, I heard some of these china excavators had knock off Kubota or Perkin engines and pumps. Pretty confident these are the real deal and not imposter engines? Thanks!
I call BS on that. If that were true, Kubota and Perkins are certainly large enough corporations that they would have international patent violation lawsuits on them.

Where is the video?
How much did it co$t and how much does it weigh ?
Looking forward to the next videos. Going to try and buy one at the next Ritchie auction close to me.
Such a timely review. Been looking at these exact models this week and several auctioned here in houston at two different sites.
I’m glad it helped. I’m still learning as I play with mine. I will post any new information as I find it
Awesome vid. I was hoping your posting that second video. Or letting us/me know how and what part you used to install that thumb. I just bought one
Nice overview . . . thanks.

Just so you know the NT45 has a Kabota D1703 25HP engine (18.2 kW @ 2200 rpm) not a 33HP.
Thanks for doing the video!
I bought an nt 45 and waiting for your video on installing the hyd thumb which I want to put on mine.
Awesome video thank you!
Thanks

How do u keep tracks on?
Thank you for the video. Please keep them coming. you're right, the company site gets a negative rating.
can you tell us specs like weight, digging specs, lifting specs! thanks!
Look into the bigger machines like CFG 35 or 40. They come up on Ritchie and Bar None auctions. A lot more heavy duty and track spacing and size seems wider for better stability.
Do you know the lift capacity?
Jonathan, thank you for the overview. I have been looking for info on these machines and it is difficult to come by.
are auctions charges buyers fees etc?
For $20k you can buy a used brand name machine.
Correct. But this is new never used. Apples to oranges
with 3000 to 4000 hours thats why its for sale!!!
I need to see part 2 with the information on getting a thumb on this thing. I just bought one and need to do the same thing.
What type of hydraulic fluid do they use?
Dose it have ac?
The machine started running rough
Hey congrats on your purchase, do you think that either nt30 or nt45 can drill with a auger attachment 12in holes and about 12ft deep?
I remember my first time tieing down equipment lol
Were you able to get hydraulic thumb operational?
It cost me 20k but I think I can do better. The extra bucket and thumb and a/c cost 5k
Could you put a link for the hydraulic thump information and AC information
The engine is a 1703 not a 1505. I just ordered one of these and was pulling my hair out over that.😅
I see these brand new mini excavators at many auctions. Buying at an auction gives people the feeling of getting a deal.
That's because the importers want to double their money on each one they sell an auction you can get it a little cheaper but good luck trying to get some kind of warranty claim
Ok
Is it diesel?
its electric
❤
How much weight can it lift?
There’s a video of the guy with nt30 picking up a 1 ton mini excavator with it. That’s this machines smaller cousin. Its on TH-cam.

Nice machine you bought, did they say how fast it can travel across ground?
Price and weight please thanks
DO YOU KNOW WHAT FUEL FILTER THESE TAKE I CANT FIND NUMBERS OR NAME ON MINE
Kubota filter 15221-43170
Other than the motor, do you know the process to get pets? Tracks, drive pumps, etc???
Does this has air conditioning or heater ?
They don’t have anything but a fan
Why do travks not stay on? Do steel tracks stay on?
Saw yours there while I picked up my nt30. It was parked right next to yours small world.
I've got an NT30 too. How do you like your's?
I also have an NT 30@@monicajohnson8786
of course its from china
Could I talk with you on the phone about your purchase? I am interested in the same machine and would like to know how it's working for you. I'm in the Seattle area. It sounds like you are too.
im stuck between ordering mine from china or here from auction.. anybody got any ideas or input..
i guess it depends on pricing ,brand,hours from the auction . if you find decent Cat on auction or Kobota,Yanmar on good pricing . i would buy
kinda jealous of the beard
Just curious, I heard some of these china excavators had knock off Kubota or Perkin engines and pumps. Pretty confident these are the real deal and not imposter engines? Thanks!
No problem
@@JonathanRich-t5r okay, so it is a legit Kubota?
Do you know the weight of the machine?
Yes some of them are 'replicas' and not the real thing. The Chinese can copy anything.
I call BS on that. If that were true, Kubota and Perkins are certainly large enough corporations that they would have international patent violation lawsuits on them.
Junk don't do it 😂
Have you worked with this machine will ot dig all day
Is it a deisel or gas engine
lets see if it lasts more than 100 hours.
How much weight can it lift?
