- QH12 Mini excavator review. I wanted to show what this little cheap machine can do. It's very helpful for even basic land management. Next week we will be back to normal videos more camping and travel related.

Thanks, great advise.
Great video, thanks for sharing your experience and some handy tips for getting that track, back on track....pun intended!😁
Track came off for first time today. Thank for giving me the knowledge and confidence to fix it. Worked like a charm (well, with alot of elbow grease too :).
Awesome glad to help, mine pops off a lot so I am a pro at it now it’s annoying but still a good machine
Listen to everyone and comes to mind is bang for buck and lower your expectations and it’s a good unit for the price
Although keep an eye on the cab swing motor bolts because one I had came loose and the bolts would tighten afterwards because they were alowed to swing back and forth with them loose to long before I bought it
So that’s something to watch out for
Mine is coming on Friday. Can't wait to get started! Thanks for the vid!
I have the same one in orange, great video!
Thanks
One of the most informative and helpful vids seen to date. Thanks
More digger vids!
Great video brother. Thank u
No problem I am going to try and make some more videos after our travels
@@FollowingFreedom I’m supposed to be trading a motorcycle for one. Brand new dk12 I believe. U definitely have best video out on them. Thanks again
Not quite sure what the manual says, if anything at all, but the turn table is about the worse system to go south on an owner due to difficulty in access for repair and cost/availability of parts. Hope the exposed gears on the underside of the base are getting a thorough rinse down as well as another shot of grease after swims in the creek.
I have never seen the manual for this thing but I always expect this thing to quit anytime and not last. It’s kind of a throwaway tractor at its build quality and price. It has done a great job taking the abuse so far though
I’d want to research for one who’s track stays on better
What will you use to get big and strong if you put all your weights in the back of the excavator!?
Which kind of oil you put in it ?
I have ran a few different oils. 10/30 royal purple, Briggs and Stratton etc… I personally think just having a good oil change interval is more important than the brand of oil
I would put some antiziese on those track bolts
Because of the water?
@@FollowingFreedomJust so they don't rust up . Preventive maintenance !
Do they have a hydraulic filter?
Mine does not sure if they all do
Does it have a grease fitting to grease tracks?
No fitting for tracks that I can see
Can this thing be towed around on a single axle trailer?
Yes depending on how strong the axle is. It’s not that heavy but I have used some small trailers that were to small. I mainly just towed it around property though so don’t have long hauling experience with it.
@FollowingFreedom I appreciate the fast reply, I got a similar model with a single axel, got it home safely but I see most people using doubles axles.
Looking at putting in a small inground or semi inground pool in Indianapolis. Everyone says the excavation is prob the most expensive labor element. I'm going to research this little unit. Thank you for making us aware a product like this exists. I thought the smallest was ditch witch...they aren'tcheap....
Search facebook marketplace you can find them for good price, does a good job once you get the hang of it
Personal use they are great!
I hate mine. But I can't afford to be without it. I had a nice John deer 35 and had to sell it because I couldn't afford to keep it and not run it everyday to make the payments. So I bought a little Chinese mini H12 a while back. I can't load anything higher than a wheelbarrow, it doesn't lift very much an it tips over, like I can lift the stones that tip this thing over at full reach. It can lift a lot up close to the tracks but that doesn't get material moved or loaded. it's not smooth, it's slower then I anticipated even though everyone warned me it is slow. 1 kilometer an hour. It has no ground clearance. But it does dig drains and downspout pipe and waterlines pretty good. It's loud compared to the nice, smooth, quiet, and fast John deer i had. but times got tough and I had to downgrade and I hate it. At least this thing can be towed with a compact vehicle.
