Man it made a HUGE DIFFERENCE! Even without the tilt and just a 3’ bucket when you got it way out there it was wobbly. Now with the rotator and a 59” bucket full it’s still stable over the side. Money well spent! If you need contact info send me an email dylanjdixon97@gmail.com
Good Unit , Just got my SY80 only 50hrs , Looking at Mongo 50in tilt bucket its basic unit only $5k and local biz , also, looking at their 35in forestry mulcher $18k installed , no case drain needed
I wanted to. But it was not available for the NOX at the time and can be added later. Also even the Nox guys told me at ConExpo that unless you use them a lot then they can be a pain. They are expensive and easy to break if you aren’t careful.
What dealer are you using. It sounds like they really went the extra mile. I’m looking at the same setup. I saw this was a year ago, would you do the same setup after a year? Have you had any problems with it? It’s a big purchase.
@@chadanderson-w4v I’m about 2 years in now. No issues out of the excavator and my dealer is amazing! The rotator has been good but had a few small issues and it was a nightmare dealing with NOX. On my next one I’ll go with steel wrist or Engcon on the rotator but I am happy with the performance and even reliability of the NOX so far. They just don’t have enough customer support. I used Apalachin equipment soloutions as my dealer they have several locations in TN and West Virginia
There shouldn't be any problem with wrecking the tilt rotator. I run a Rototilt and Steelwrist and there are no limits to what they will do. Both are direct hook up so no coupler. And no quick oil systems, it doesn't take much to hook up hoses, A jaw bucket from AMI goes a long ways in replacing that thumb.
Love the setup I just subscribed because your doing exactly what I'm getting into earthwork and land clearing! Curious how well the piston-less tilt performs on that rotator compared to engcon steelwrist and rototilt. Also looking into buying a sany sy60 or sy80, I'd like the 80 but might be harder to haul with the trucks I've got, what do you use to haul yours?? Keep up the good work look forward to more great videos!
Thanks for the comment and for watching ! I have a single axle dump truck L10 Cummins and 9 speed that I move it around with. I don’t have experience with the other brands to compare the tilt! but so far I have t felt like it ever lacks any power and I actually like it better because there’s no cylinders hanging out to get tore up or hang something!
Thanks for the video. This is the exact setup I've been wanting down here in Georgia. This system also ends the need to a tilt on the backfill blade as you can fix tilt grading needs with the tiltrotator! Those curved ditch line corners are now a non issue! Do you have a social media for your machines? An instagram? Thanks
I do not have social media for them yet. But will be posting videos here often ! I try to post weekly. Will try to do some social media in the future! Appreciate your comment ! Thanks for watching !
Around 40k. Sounds bad I initially but eliminates hauling a second machine around a lot of jobs and also eliminates a man on the ground with the shovel a lot of times. When you factor those in it will save you money! I will never look back
Hello ! your thumb looks nice, and it keeps open nicely. I have a question about it : if the thumb will close totally (as touching the bucket when the bucket is in full open position?)
Now I'm curious what felt natural for you in terms of controls. For me the tilt felt unnatural when I first started running them, although I'm not sure if that was default, it was however "wrong" in terms of the 64 year old that taught me and I was not allowed to change, as that would have been the "wrong" way as of him. I learnt to adapt to the machine I went into after a while even if it takes a while to reset the brain. Not sure if the German brands like NOX have it different from the Scandinavian brands though.
Tried to find a good NOX manual but couldn't find one, only brochures. Engcon had a good manual explaining default control schema on their website though and if it's the same on the NOX, I'm not sure. But looking at the default it differs compared to what my brain wants on the tilt only, the rotation is correct as to how my brain wants it (I also have rotation on left and tilt on right joystick as default). Was it the switch of the rollers where you switched the right roller to be rotation and the left roller to be tilt that you changed or did you also change the direction of any of the functions? Also sounds like a smart move to keep the thumb as you did in regards to your application.
Sany is running the same engine as the Deere. And all of the hydraulic components are from reputable brands and are shared with other brands. Biggest reason is the price tag and way better warranty vs the big names. I’ve got about 500 hrs on it so far and still very happy with the decision
Well appointed - definitely gives me something to think about
Tidy digger well set out with thumb and tilt rotator .dear Santa !!!!!!
@@jasdunlop9907 haha thanks for watching!
Very cool attachment. 😃
Thank you sir ! It is a life changer !
Nicely set up. I’m glad you were able to keep the thumb. I’m looking forward to watching the Sany earn its keep lol
Looking good Dylan, great setup!
Appreciate it ! Thanks for watching and for the comment !
Nice. I may have to look into the counter weight.

Why did you not go with the oil quick system?
Awesome setup.

Info on counterweight please . thx
Look up Appalachian equipment solutions and give them a call! They can ship you a counterweight anywhere you need it!
Roughly how much did this attachment set you back?
Around 40k. Sounds bad I initially but eliminates hauling a second machine around a lot of jobs and also eliminates a man on the ground with the shovel a lot of times. When you factor those in it will save you money! I will never look back
Thanks for the reply! Yeah they are pricey, I was just curious where it was price wise compared to a engcon

what did the rotator cost you?

@@AlexKall I left the tilt on left stick just inverted the direction on the switch!
@@diggingwithdylan9092 Interesting that NOX or the fitter has switched the tilt to the left stick compared to the standard which is right stick.
Why a Sany over say a John Deere or Cat?
Sany is running the same engine as the Deere. And all of the hydraulic components are from reputable brands and are shared with other brands. Biggest reason is the price tag and way better warranty vs the big names. I’ve got about 500 hrs on it so far and still very happy with the decision
Short answer: he doesn't have a clue (sorry) ~
nice bit of kit that's goner be a game changer for you Dylan very smart move
Thank you sir ! It is life changing already !
