As much as I enjoy my ZH20D I would upgrade to this unit with a cab if I hadn't already upgraded my 43 2N tractor to a 2023 Mahindra this past winter. And Nick, FYI, your videos are the reason I spent money with your company.
I already have a diesel mini excavator, which I bought barely used, but I just found your channel and I'm going to call you to purchase a hammer...just because of your videos. If I'd seen your channel earlier, I certainly would have looked really hard at your machines too. Thank you for sharing all of this! BTW, nice digging demo work...but I'll bet that golf course owner's going to be pissed. :-)
For someone who didn’t really want to do these videos, you are doing a wonderful job! I found you on TH-cam and I am enjoying your very informational videos very much. I love how you build these machines for all levels and your upgrades very well thought out and meets the needs of your customers. Please keep doing what you are doing. I see myself as a future customer of yours once I move to PA in the not so far off future.
Nice machine & well done video. Nick, your delivery is just fine. You come across as a highly knowledgeable, down-to-earth, real person; not some ignorant, over-paid mouthpiece. I like that you can get these in a variety of colors. Maybe you could add an available color palette to your website, ideally on the units, so buyers could see. Also, are different colors an option on your loaders & dumper?
Great job, open a location in Phoenix Az. You will kill here. This area is growing so fast. Most homes have block (90%) walls that need 12 inch footings very affordable units compared to Bobcat, Deere, Kubota ect. Thanks again for a great job, I'm still puzzled how you can remember all #'s , are you using a Teleprompter ? 🤔
I just bought this unit yesterday at the Tennessee dealer. Skip is a great guy and a pleasure to do business with. Can you tell me what the third hydro line is on the right drive motor? The smaller units only have two.
I am very interested in this unit, what is the availability of this model? Also how much is the expandable track option? Thanks so much . Looking to buy in January.
Awesome video friend, my brother been looking for a excavator and we live in Wv and about a hour or less from Chapmanville Wv they sell Groundhog is this one of your guys new dealer, he probably end up with a ZH24D with the Kubota engine, and your videos are so helpful and me and my brother can see the difference compared to other Chinese brands out there. Keep the videos coming, and do your dealers offer financing he probably put $4000 down. Thankyou

Can you tell me about greasing the turntable and slewing bearing, how often each one, how much and which fitting goes to each one? I've heard you can damage the bearing with too much grease.
Can you explain the differences between the ZH20D, BH24D, ZH24D, and ZH24D-2. They all seem to be 1 1/2 tons and about the same price. I am looking for a mini for our 26 acre property and I think getting the easiest to work on, and most stable unit would be the priority.
The ZH20D is a 20HP machine with the same reach and weight as the ZH24D's. The ZH24D-2 is a u-boom setup with a different chassis with a slightly longer reach compared to the ZH24D.
You warranty the Kubota engine for 1 year. The Kubota website says " Kubota warranties its industrial engines for 2 years or 2,000 hours, whichever occurs first; major engine components are warrantied for 3 years or 3000 hours. Again, whichever occurs first." Do we get that warranty through Kubota?
We are looking into options to extent our dealer network further south on the east coast, send an email to groundhogequipment@outlook.com with dealers about your dealer inquiry like location and experience.
@@groundhogequipment I’ve been looking at the groundhogs for a while and I was wondering what does it take to become a dealer in middle Georgia in the Macon- WarnerRobins area Thanks for any info
Why take away the foot pedal function to control the tracks when adding the expandable tracks option? I think the foot pedals to control the tracks is very useful (just like the big boys(excavators)) and should always be available despite what options you add.
@@groundhogequipment well there's still few hundred things I could still use one for in my wood yard it would help big time.do yall finance or would I have to go to the bank and get a loan just asking.!
Dam good salesman and thoroughly explains what I wanted to hear. Terminology and painted the picture for us. Looking into these machines now.
Talking with your hands,emphasizing the highlights,it’s all good,solid machine! you take care !!

This a awesome looking machine, great job Nick on the job you and your company are doing.
I love mine. Very good quality and unbelievably powerful. Started looking at the gas units but ultimately decided on this one. I’m glad I did.
Right on! Thanks for the review
You make it hard for me to not buy one of these but Im holding out for the wheel loaders I think.

Will do! We offer color options on all our machines.
Great video I'll be looking you guys up. Thank you 👍😊
Good job explaining your mini ex. Thanks
Can you do a video on changing the attachments on the front bucket quick attach versus standard?
Good job, young man!
Great job on the video!! Love the machine!!
Glad you enjoyed it!

We are looking into options to expand our dealer network, hopefully have a dealer in AZ soon! No teleprompter, He just goes...
Are you able to change boom swing and thumb functions so thumb is on joystick ?
you can manually rewire and switch the controls but its not super intuitive, it'd require some electrical know how.

It's a pressure relief
What is the price on the 2 speed option? I see the 2 speed for 20s is listed on the website is it that same price?
we offer the upgrade for $975 on the ZH24D-2
@@groundhogequipment Can this upgrade be done after purchase without being a mechanic?
Do these use us style pumps and drive motors?
We use all Eaton and Parker pumps
I am very interested in this unit, what is the availability of this model? Also how much is the expandable track option? Thanks so much . Looking to buy in January.
None currently on our lot but We'll have some ready soon, $1500 for retractable tracks.
I wish i had one of these for a week to give it hell and see what it will really do compared to the big brands
We'd love to see you put one through hell!
@groundhogequipment Ive run them all and I will be in the market soon we use the hell put of them though
@@groundhogequipment and im up for the challenge lol
Do you have a dealer around North Georgia?
Not yet, we're looking into options to extent our dealer network further south on the east coast soon!
Will the 25-2 be getting similar updates ?

Can you tell me about greasing the turntable and slewing bearing, how often each one, how much and which fitting goes to each one? I've heard you can damage the bearing with too much grease.
At least every 50 hours, You can't over grease the slew or turntable.

What’s the price on one of these with cab don’t need tracks to go out would rather have peddles to move and in white

Nice machine! can I get it with a yanmar engine?

It is very useful on a foot pedal, one thing that's nice about these machines is it's easy to switch the hydraulics to almost any setup
How fast is the 2-Speed unit?
@@groundhogequipment Is upgrading to the 2-speed difficult after my purchase?
will it pick up 15 foot long logs at 20 inc round???
It really depends on the species

PRICE. Delivered or pickup.

Buy extra buckets. It's junk.
Elaborate?
@@hoffpauirconcrete.semperfidCC twice I have seen the buckets break off while trenching.
@TheMoneypresident so the machine isnt junk just the bucket?
@@hoffpauirconcrete.semperfidCC if you can get a better one that fits. Or have a good welder on site to patch it up.
Is the expandable drive an Eton drive?
That's not an Eaton drive on that model
