Review and thoughts on a 2.5 Chinese mini excavator
zhlédnutí 4,9KPřed 4 měsíci
I review and offer my thoughts on my Chinese import mini excavator. This excavator has a Kubota D1105 diesel engine, swivel boom, expanding tracks, and hydraulic thumb. Very similar to a Kymron and a Groundhog.
Testing the auger attachment on my Chinese mini skid steer
zhlédnutí 4,1KPřed 4 měsíci
In this video I test out the auger attachment on my mini skid steer. Like usual it has its issues but eventually works. This time they stripped out the hydraulic fitting for the case drain going into the motor. We got it working but there seams to always be an issue with these Chinese machines. Kymron and groundhog equivalent machine imported directly from China

The DD20 is a Kubota powered Chinese mini excavator with expanding tracks, swivel boom, and lay flat hydraulic thumb! It also comes with a the 16” standard bucket and a 8” trenching bucket! What a sweet package! It has the Kubota D722 diesel engine with 16.5 HP, upgraded pumps, and everything you need to get the job done! This is very similar to the Kymron and Groundhog excavators but at a lowe...

      I owned two Sk650 ditch witch mini's. They're great until you have to work on them. Unless it's a bucket or hydraulic hose you're buying parts from ditch witch and they're not cheap. The other thing is, they're a bear to work on. Mine were kubota 3cyl diesels. Access to belts or anything coolant related will make you hate life if you have to work on them. Just some food for thought.

    I have pretty much the same machine + cabine. Actually its 2070kg total, but promoted under name kv25 in your case dd25. Allot of things are made with logic, it will never need servicing or maintenance. Its my first chinese, but yes you have to take some compromises for that amount of money. Defenetly its not close with big names. For now on mine: - grase nipples are all useless if you want to lubricate correctly, change them with new (do not lubricate track expansions guides - it wil bring dirt inside) - hyd oil has to be filled to max if you dont want to get air to sistem...but when you fill it to max it will spill all over tank and excavator WHAT TO DO HERE??? - hyd oil tank has no drain plug :( i had to make it) - tolerance with swing motor and cab sprocket (for rotating cabine) it too big. If you try new kubota/takeuchi you will see the difference. This is trubeling whole machine when rotating and stopping fast. Swing motor (do you have one or two??) has cushion valve instaled, but its set badly - see my video - one track is faster than other from day 1. When traveling in 2.gear its really disturbing - HAVENT SOLVED THIS YET! - on mine, main relief valve was set to aprox 155-160bar with medium RPM, witch is too low. I raised it to 180-185bar. Now its different machine - front blade is TOOO low when lifted to max. Problems when loading/unloading, when im trying to push pile od dirt.... HAVE TO SOLVE THIS - hydraulic thumb is too short if you install quick hitch. Had to make new - front boom could have been alitlebit bigger - longer for 2t

    • @CafeRacer_90
      @CafeRacer_90 Před 3 měsíci

      Note! Maximum working preasure should be measured when oil/machine is warm and you set RPM to mid-max! When low RPM it wont produce 180bar but 160 in my case...

    First thing I'll say as an operator and a Father, tell all the kids to stay away from the machine any time the engine is running. And IF they need your attention ALWAYS stand away out in front where you can see them. I've seen grown men with years around escavators walk right into a swinging bucket. Second. Do not lift on your drive motors. They are no designed to support that weight. Lift it and if possible push with blade against the load.
