- A quick walk around of my new Takeuchi TB260! Finally after 3 months the excavator is ready, I briefly go over some of the features and buckets I got. I am planning on doing a more in depth video after I run it for a bit. I'm very impressed with machine, it's quick and smooth and has tons of power. Very excited about this, it's my first brand new equipment purchase. Thanks for watching! #EliteEarthworks #Takeuchi #TakeuchiTB260

John Stegall thank you! It’s a blast to run that’s for sure!
The best mini excavator on market today!!! Great choice
Vlade Erceg thank you! And you are correct! 👍🏻
That's beacause mr tehcuchi invented the mini excavators and last yr or the yr before he released an all electric one with out standing breakout force.
Congratulations on your new machine. Can't wait to see it in action.
Richard McDaniel thank you! It’s a beast!

Been waiting patiently for this reveal. Awesome man congrats.
SLC Farms thanks! It’s been forever 🙄🤣
Congrats on the new machine !
Colton Packman thanks man!
I can definitely tell that this excavator has got a little bit more power to it. It is actually a little higher pitch than your other one. It seems like a nice excavator. I still got to work on finding me a new RC one because the one that I showed in the video in January lost all four of it’s hydraulic hoses and I don’t think I can get it fixed.
Alex Williamson's blind adventures yes it has tons more power. Oh man that’s not good hope you find another one. Thanks again
Very cool!!! Great video too! I think this will be a good fit for you for sure! Congratulations Brandon and Erin!!!
Digginok thanks Frank!
Digginok thank you! I hope so I’m really happy with it so far. I know it’s not a dynahoe but it should do the job.
Congratulations on the new Machine
kevin tolbert thank you!
Very cool buddy! That’s something to be proud of there, brand new machine!
CountyLine330 thank you! I agree this is a huge step for me, never has a brand new machine! I’m like a kid on Christmas lol
That’s awesome buddy .. I’m glad was able to get u a new one ..u will have to keep that thing all slicked up 😁
James Hampton thanks man! Yeah I don’t want to get it dirty now 🤣
Congratulations guys!
Thank you!
Now I get to watch it again. I had a phone call the first time.
I would be happy with your old excavator. The new one looks great. Don’t get it dirty.
walter mattson lol way to help my views out
walter mattson thank you! Yeah no kidding want to avoid the mud
Congrats and enjoy your new machine.
Rich Wielechowski thank you!
Just to be clear: I got back in the dump truck and rode back with him. I did NOT get traded in for the the new coochie 😂
Mrs. Elite Earthworks we were wondering what happened to ya 🤔🤔😉. Thought maybe you had to drive back to the shop cuz Brandon wouldn’t get out of the excavator...😂
Whew!
Mrs. Elite Earthworks I was wondering where you went?!
Operators can be replaced alot easier than equipment! Just saying...
Brian Webber operators are a dime a dozen, but a good CFO? Irreplaceable! 💁♀️😉😂
congrats on the new machine man! unreal
Ken White Construction thanks man! Yeah it still seems a bit surreal! I am loving it though! 👊🏻
Good lookin machine congrats man!
Excavating 320 thanks buddy!
Looks nice! congratulations!
james rogers thank you!
Nice very nice.
MR. FIX-ALL INC. thank you!
Congrats buddy.
Joseph Boley thanks man! I still need to get you a shirt and stickers, I’ll talk to my marketing director on that 😉🤣
@@eliteearthworksllc that would be very very very cool buddy. That would actually brighten up my mood here lately. Just Kinna been down in the dumps here lately. Hope you and Mrs Elite earthworks are doing very well. A lot of people have been asking me about the sticker's on my back window of my jeep and my coffee cup. I get a lot of compliments and questions about them.. Yes even the Mrs Elite earthworks sticker. 😂 chat at ya later.
Joseph Boley I hate to hear that buddy, Mrs Elite is working on another order so we’ll get you taken care of for sure and we just got more stickers in. Hang in there man!
@@eliteearthworksllc OK thank you very much bud.
Yee haw !!!! Rock and roll dude.
bluemtnsman thanks man!
Congrats on the new machine good luck with it
Mrdan thank you! It’s definitely a blast!
Man look at the buckets, you bought them all, ditching bucket you'll love. Happy for you!
Stay safe
Dwayne
Louisiana Dirt 218 lol yeah I wanted options. I’ve used that grading bucket more than the others, it’s awesome! Thanks again Dwayne
@@eliteearthworksllc you'll notice with the hydraulic quick connect it'll add some weight when boomed all the way out.
You LL love the quick connect.
Louisiana Dirt 218 yes you can tell it’s a bit heavier
Congrats Brandon awesome machine!
Tri-County Masonry & Excavating 'Dirt Boss' thanks man!
Beautiful machine.
Reddell1969 thank you!
Sweeeeeet! Congrats! 👍👍👍
Wayne Tharp thank you!
Nice man! Congratulations on the new equipment. May it serve you well and have very little down time.
Ohh Paul thanks man! I hope so!
WOW! Christmas in June! You're a very good operator, hard working guy, and well deserved...enjoy.
Robert Costales lol that’s the same thing I said about Christmas. Thank you I try to get out there and hustle!
Congratulations!! It is a beautiful machine
Adrian thank you!
Congrats! Hard work pays off. Recently subscribed... love the videos!

Iwan Deegenaars thank you!
Congrats on your new toy
Thanks man!
Well deserved good luck excellent wee machine
Robert Martin thank you! I’m excited about it!
LoL, you started with Mrs Elite in the truck, I just knew something was going down. Always best to bring your banker along for trips like this.😀😀😀😀😀
Mr. SOT.. did you scope out where this new coochie needs some stickers? Thankfully we have a good video so we can preplan for next time 😂🤣😂🤣
Mrs. E.. maybe if we wait at least till he has it in the 💩 the first time....
S.O.T. Metalworks 🤣 dead giveaway! Yes I feel better having my counterpart there.
Mrs. S.O.T. Metalworks 🤣🤣
Mrs. S.O.T. Metalworks 🤦🏼♂️ what was I thinking the video was too detailed
Nice to see they finally got it ready for you. It's not a bad idea to "ground" the bucket after you switch it to make sure it grabbed the pin. I have lost one in a dump truck and have heard stories of them falling in the ditch because the operator didn't make sure it latched. Enjoy your new machine Brandon.
Dirt E Diggin yes 3 months took forever! Yeah I’m a little paranoid about it falling off so I double check. OCD lol! Thanks again Jared
Very nice ! You’re gonna love the hydraulic coupler and buckets. I actually seen you tonight near Mercy about 6:50 I layed on the horn! The more attachments and buckets you get the more you want to carry with you all the time . Lol!
Top Notch Excavating LLC thank you! 🤣🤣 I wondered who honked that’s hilarious! Yeah almost need another trailer for all my buckets! One of these days we will have to meet up and hang out!
She’s a dandy looking machine !!! Congratulations my friend !!!
Allen Breedlove thank you! It’s awesome!
Congrats man thats a beautiful machine. It will pay for itself five times fold
Boitano Excavation thanks! I hope so! Oh that angle blade is sweet by the way!
Nice machine! I looked at a Takeuchi before I bought my kubota, but dealer took too long getting back to me. I bought a 121 first and have a 40 now. I love it. Mine has a 6 way blade, and I wished I'd sprung for the hydraulic quick coupler. Mine isn't bad, one pin. Takeuchi is definitely a good machine. Enjoy! Looking forward to seeing it in action.
Randall Wescoat thank you! I will say they don’t get in a hurry to get it to you. I hear Kubotas are really nice too. That’s cool! I appreciate and hopefully have a video this week using it!
Mrs. Elite is such a good sport, riding in the dump truck and helping out with the new purchase. That machine is awesome and you obviously have a passion for buckets...lol
Congratulations and many hundreds of hours of trouble-free operation.
I'm really impressed with that angle dozer blade setup. Very cool! The interior comforts look pretty well thought out too.
Work safe, enjoy your new toy and say hello to Mrs. Elite for me.
lakesideranch Hello! I deserve a raise....or at least my dump truck seat does! 😂
@@mrs.eliteearthworks I agree totally! You are a key part of the enterprise and your supportive attitude is refreshing and I'm always happy to ask Brandon to say hello to you.
Have a great rest of the week, see you guys on the next 1!
Doug@ the "ranch"
lakesideranch yes she is great! Lol I wanted plenty of options for buckets! The machine is great tons of power! Thanks again Doug!
Sad to see the 153 go, but hello 260!! Moving up in the world Brandon. I think you’re gonna like that angle blade and the grading bucket for backfilling haha. Then you’ll be thinking to yourself “how did I ever get on without them?!” Congratulations man, excited for the new vids!
Tyler Pittmon yeah I was a little sad for the 153 but definitely excited for the new one. I really like that grading bucket so far. Been very handy. Thanks again man
Nice looking rig man great video bud
Thank you! I appreciate that!
Can’t wait to see it in action! Looks like she’s gunna be a good addition to the fleet! Let me know when you’re ready for me and Junior to add some racks on the front of the trailer for your buckets! Thanks for sharing!
Junkyard’s Garage yeah I’m stoked this thing is a beast! That’s a great idea I need to something to hold all those buckets on the trailer. Thanks again man
You did a great job with that old machine. You will really shine in this new. My problem is I wouldn't want to get it dirty. Lol. Congrats.
Brian he’s already talked about waxing it to help keep the dirt off 🙄😂
Brian thanks man I hope so! Yeah that’s my problem now I don’t want to get it dirty but I need to work it lol
Mrs. Elite Earthworks 😁
Wow I bug you one time about needing pins and bushings and you replace them all in one shot. Congrats and welcome to the world of hyd quick attach you will love it.
Rogue Excavating lol yeah I’m not good at taking criticism I guess 🤣! That coupler has already paid fir itself if you ask me lol
Congratulations, nice machine. You will get a lot of enjoyment and work out of the new machine.
Monty Bussard thank you! Yeah I find myself just smiling while I’m running it now lol
I know that feeling. I smile when I run my equipment.
Nice excvator
Iwan Deegenaars thank you!
You’ll love the hydraulic couple👍 Both my Yanmar’s have it.
Great looking machine, congratulations
trickmytractor thank you! I appreciate that! Yeah that coupler has been fantastic, worth every penny so far!
Congrats man
Larry Littleton Jr thank you!
Badass machine dude, happy for you. Now back to laying pipe!!
Andy Perrine thanks man! 🤣 yeah no kidding!
Nice video 👍😎👍
Iwan Deegenaars thanks man!
Can't wait till the next job with it
Bradley Parker dug a footing today hopefully have that video up Friday
very nice machine
timothy turigliatto thank you!
Congrats on the new mini x!!! You going to be happy you upgraded, you’ll get used to it and your going to love the quick coupler. You will be changing buckets all the time. FYI think about charging by the job not by the hour.
Digger 78 thanks man! I love it so far! Lol yeah I used 3 different buckets today. And yes I agree on that definitely wanting to work by the job. Thanks again
Well damn, that's a good looking machine. Can't wait to see you scrub the new off lol.
Sandy thank you! I really don’t want to get it dirty now 🤣
@@eliteearthworksllc Hah, I bet you'll be out there with a squeegee & bucket washing it every night!
Congrats on the 260, and you stumbled on a Great Truth; when a guy spends a lot of time on older, looser, semi-worn out equipment, getting into a new, tight machine makes the whole day a breeze. My '99 KX161 is fairly tight for it's age, but when I jumped into a new Gehl Z80 and JD160G last year to help friends out, my work looked above my actual skill level. Cutting/leveling grade and a level trench was a lot easier, more fine control, of course ergos and cab vis better. Finger actuated thumb control made brush clearing and moving objects so much easier/quicker than my foot control.
At the end of the day, tho, my Kubota is still getting the job done and best of all, paid for, Tier 2 and I can work on the thing when I'm out in the sticks.
Jay Phillips thank you! Yes it’s definitely a night and day difference. Does take a lot less movement in the new one. Yeah I’m going to miss my tier 3 for sure. Thanks again man
Congrats Brandon! I just picked up a 2017 tb260 with 800 hrs. Its identical to your, but mine came with a wain roy style coupler. It getting swapped out for a werk brau/strickland soon. I have been impressed with this machine. I may email you with a couple of part questions if that's ok
Michael Huhn thanks man! That’s good to hear. Yeah give me a shout I’ll see what I can do. I’m happy with my coupler so far but definitely want a different thumb. Thanks again
Wow you was only 6 miles from me lol , Nice looking equipment, keep up the great work
Chris Zumwalt that’s cool! You just south of Joplin? Thanks again
@@eliteearthworksllc yep actually Racine but work at O'Reillys in Seneca lol , been watching the videos for a few months and never realized you was local hahahaha until your latest episode
Important all buckets. good blade
Thank you!
Congratulations Brandon and Mrs elite earthworks!!! Hey Brandon I’m not sure if your new machine will do it or not with the power angle blade but ours at work if you dig for a while and keep moving it will angle by its self just have to keep putting it back where you want ti to be
Chad Isett thank you! I haven’t noticed that yet but thank you I will keep an eye on it!
Elite Earthworks LLC at times it can be a pain in the but lol
Congrats! Wish you make a lot of money with it. Thx for video!
Thank you! I hope so too!
Man-o-man! You must be rich nowadays Brandon!💰💰 I guess being a rockstar on TH-cam is really payin’ off! 😎
She is one hot machine you got yourself there! Oh, and that new Takeuchi ain’t too bad either 😉
Good luck w/the new toy. I’m sure it’ll be a money maker for ya.
🤜🤛
psidvicious 🥰
Lol I’m not rich at all now! Yeah she’s definitely a keeper! Same for the excavator 🤣. Thanks again man
New toy you will be ready to go to work in the morning 👍
Randall Robison yes I can’t wait to jump in it again lol
We just got a new tb225 that went to the states on demo. Apparently no good for the American market but I love it. Amazing capacity for what it is. Takeuchi all day, every day.
That’s cool! Good to hear!
Why isn't it any good for the American Market? I'm curious.
@@MikeDPlxztc No idea. The salesman didn't say, I assume because of its size? But with running 3 ton class engine, pumps, buckets etc in a 2 ton size I can't imagine why anywhere wouldn't want it.
@@danielroe845 thank you for your response Daniel I just bought a 2013 tb235 and I haven't taken delivery of it yet but I'm hyper curious about all things excavator now haha
That's awesome, it's a lovely machine that you have there! Hope you'll have many hassle-free hours on that!
Construction Channel Luxembourg thank you! I hope so too!
Yea!
FORESTER Croatia thanks man!
Very nice
Thank you! It’s a great machine!
thank GOD you deserve it,you are the best.
junehunk1 lol thanks man! But I don’t know about the best 🤣
Very nice there Brandon, now haul that thing to PA and I could keep you busy for a week or more, lol!!!
Eric Rice thank you! I could do that, then I hit Jasonworkalots at the same time lol
You should get a tilt bucket. It will be your go to bucket! I have a 5' smooth bucket with a Helac tilt on it for my kubota Kx040. It is awesome.
Leif Wilson yeah that’s the one attachment I really want for it!
She is a lovely bit of kit wow. Enjoy it you've earned it with the extra buckets it will make things alot easier for you and quicker. You will find you might you the skid stere less best of luck to you
If I don't have to move material a distance I use the mini ex for everything.
Residential Dirt Work that’s why we replaced the excavator before the loader. Brandon found he was using it WAY more.
@@mrs.eliteearthworks I was wondering why he did that. He's going to love that grade bucket.
Rory Jones thank you! I was thinking that now that I have the grading bucket, maybe keep the hours off the loader. Thanks again
Residential Dirt Work yeah I love that grading bucket
Good for you, nice machine 👌, you'll have to train it now to do your flip ha ha enjoy and more videos now cool, Peace
Bruce Blais thank you! I appreciate that! Lol I’m working on it 👍🏻
Good luck with the the new mini excavator
Tj Merrigan thanks man!
Super proud of you !!
You deserve it !!
You do awesome work and I think you are an awesome operator on both machines !
Looking forward to upcoming videos
K W thanks man I really appreciate that! Hopefully have a video of it digging tonight! Thanks again
Nothing wrong with taking the CEO along to pick stuff up but fix her seat so she more comfy I hope she docs your wages a bit for that lol. Nice investment for the company better take CEO Mrs Elite out for a nice supper. Keep up the great videos
Kenny Mysak he can’t afford to take me for a nice supper! Has to pay for that new coochie! 😂
@@mrs.eliteearthworks yeah he can he just needs to work a little harder and dig in his piggybank
Kenny Mysak lol yeah I need to fix that seat. She definitely deserves a nice dinner out! Thanks again
That‘s a really good excavator and the shield is nice we in germany don‘t have running anything like that👍
Korbi Hoffmann thank you! I’m surprised you guys don’t have more of these over there. Thanks again
Only we don‘t have this flexibel shield but all takeuchi have „powertilt“ thats a tiltrotator 👍
Korbi Hoffmann lol maybe one of these days
Congrats on your new Cadillac, I mean excavator!!!😁 you deserve it, you work hard. Now,,, DON'T GET IT DIRTY!!! 😅😅😅. New Subscriber, enjoy your videos my friend. ☆Jay 👍👍
Silver Grizzly welcome aboard!
Silver Grizzly thanks man! Appreciate you subscribing hopefully you enjoy the content. Yes now I want to avoid mud and trees lol
Congrats on the new excavator, excellent choice! I noticed you window tent all your equipment do you tent the front window and if so what percent tint did you use? Which percent also do use on the side windows in the back and can you see well out of them in the day?
Can you see at night out of them too?
TX Excavation thank you! They are 40 percent with a ceramic film. It’s the same all around front and sides. No issues seeing at night either. Thanks again
OH BOY OH BOY OH BOY!!!! Congrats man! She's a beaut! Pretty exciting stuff! Looking forward to more sewer projects with the new coochie!!! lol! Thanks for the video! Don't have too much fun lol!
BurningDinosaurs lol thanks man! I’m excited to dig with it! It has so much power and is so smooth! Can’t wait! Thanks again Wes!
We hear one belt squeal out of this thing, the rage will be real
Bleeds Ford Blue 🤣🤣 tell me about it! No squeals or rattles
nice machine! hope it does everything you need it to and more. that style thumb and the 12" bucket dont work out well if you have to dig deeper than the bucket pin. i have the same problem with my deere and might as well just use the 18 or 24 all the time instead
73DiamondReo thank you! Yeah I noticed that, it’s just going to be a footing bucket. I would much rather use the 18”. The 12” takes forever. Thanks again
Very nice machine. Once you own machine with a hydraulic coupler you will never go back to a mechanical. It is hard to tell for sure but it doesn't look like there is any hose guard on your 2 coupler hoses that run from the block to the coupler. If there isn't I would recommend getting some on those asap.
Nate Warner yes I love the hydraulic coupler it’s so nice. That’s a great idea on the hose guard, I’m surprised it doesn’t have anything on them. Do I need the metal hose guards. Thanks again
Elite Earthworks LLC I would just use nylon hose guard on those. On my machine they seem to rub against the cylinder rod and bucket linkage as the rod becomes fully retracted with the bucket in the dump position. They don't rub anything very hard but over time it can become an issue.
Nate Warner gotcha thank you I will do that
Very Cool!!!! Have Mrs Elite teach Dirt Perfect how to buckle up!!!
Officer Hoover Buckle up for safety! 🎶
Officer Hoover shots fired 😂😂....Mr Dirt Perfect jus got called out. 😉
Officer Hoover thank you! I’ll have her make him a training video lol
I have one coming tomorrow for a week rental. I have 5 minutes experience. After a week I will be able to put my skills in a thimble compared to you and letsdig. I just put things together mrs.Elite Earthworks is your wife. I have seen her comments on letsdig. She is comical and witty. Best to both of y'all😊
Cool! You will love it, lots of room and lots of power! Yes she is! She has a great sense of humor! I’ve very lucky to have her! Thanks again and enjoy the machine!
Congratulations Brandon! I'm sure it's been frustrating waiting so long but now it's like a kid in a candy store! Since Case is the dealer for the coochies did you ever look into the new Case 60? I've seen a lot of their commercials and they look like a very innovative machine and has a very good warranty compared to many name brand machines.
Clyde Acor thank you! Yes it has but I’m glad it’s here now. The Cases are nice too and I think they offer a 3 year warranty too. I just like my machines to match 🙄🤣
That's awesome that you get a 3 year warranty. Ya I've heard that Case had the 3 year 3,000 hour warranty too, I think most of the others only had like a 2,000 hour warranty the last time I checked. It's crazy that construction equipment only has a 2 to 3 thousand hour or 2 to 3 year warranty but farm tractors that get their guts worked out pulling heavy implements their whole life get a 5 year 5,000 hour warranty. And matching equipment does look nice. Isn't it about time to trade your little loader in now?? ;-)
Clyde Acor yeah that’s what they have. And I agree it seems like it should be up there with the ag stuff. Lol maybe next year on the loader we will see
I'm proud for you! Just "like a kid with a new toy"...lol...
arkansas13 thank you! 🤣 you’re exactly right on that, I’m just a big kid!
Right on buddy now you just need a Tilt installed and your set
John Teel thank you! Yes that is one attachment I would like to get! Thanks again
Nice backhoe do you have ant attachments for it and can you make a video of it please
Charles Taylor thank you! I just have the buckets for now
@@eliteearthworksllc the backhoe in the background i noticed it while you where filming not the new one its i think a case
Charles Taylor lol oh yeah it’s my dads 580E I’ll try to get it in a video
