My setup is a smaller, I have a 12’x6’ dump trailer, 2 ton mini ex with hydraulic thumb and Wacker Neuson Sm100 mini skidsteer. Working ok buying more attachments for my mini skid finally have my LLC and looking to quit traveling next year and go full time for myself in South Texas. Keep Grinding!! God Bless!
I bought a Kubota 95-2 off a buddy of mine for a good deal. It’s a heavy machine … you think it’s alright to do home jobs with? Or is it too heavy? Haven’t owned it but a few days and was curious if it’s too heavy for like small jobs on peoples property. I see you got a 65 didn’t know if one was better than the other for certain jobs. ( new to the skid steers ) Thanks
Will 1st off a good video but a skidteer is not excavator nor is excavator a Skidteer. IIRC JD and Case has a combo Excavator-Skidsteer thing or whatcha call it. You can also buy excavator booms for a skideteer. Also on enclosed cabs, great for when battling the weather or angry colony of bees/hornets. But with glass, it's easy to damage and expensive to replace. So if you push down trees you have to be very careful that you do not throw up rocks or get impaled on a branch or have a branch slap back. On skidesteer, you have eXtend tracks that can squeeze thru subdivision small lots or thru a gate one is not always the best. Great for a installer that does irrigations lines. So depending on your business and what you want to target, you should pick the best item. A CAT325 would be great for demolishing but a CAT301.8 my be better in smaller land jobs easier to transport cost less, use less fuel, easier to work on. @07:24 And yes your being generous 5mph, I can only dream of that in my Excavtor 😆 maybe more like 2-3.4mph in the 2nd speed.
