- Just picked up a new Chinese mini excavator and will be doing many reviews of this unit. Here is the first look at it after picking it up from the dealer.
If you’re interested in getting one of these comment below!
i have to say it's one little nice DIY machine! Excavators are really useful in many ways.
Hi nice excavator I have seen a lot of people buy these mini,s the first thing I would do is change out all the oils don’t trust what’s in it also check all the bolts and nuts then you should be good to go have fun with it
Thanks! Will do!
@@ddranch1365Hello dear friend, I am interested in an excavator 1.8t side digging engine kubota d902 and some accessories, could I ask for a price offer
Hi. I purchased a HT18 in 2022. From the moment I unpacked it , it had been a problem. I bought a unit with a cab. In the 1st week the front lifting window fell into the cab because key parts broke including the plastic channel rollers. Then the Hydraulic valve that works the blade broke and let oil flow through the cab. After a lot of too and fro the company finally came through but it wasn't a pleasant process. One of the appliances I bought was a tilting bucket. Can't fit it to the quick hitch because the bales are too small and too narrow. Company couldn't care less. Haven't offered any compensation. The quick hitch is 120 x 120 x 30mm the bales on the buckey 90 x 90 x 20. Then there's the debarcle with the grabber. Was using it last weekend for the 1st time (because I had to spend thousands putting in Hydraulic hoses to make it work) and the 360 degree motor flew apart. Managed to find the broken cog, but that's all. At the very least it will require a replacement motor because the shaft is bent, which may also impact on the main motor. So far no response from the company in China. Would not touch a HiTop product from Shangdon Motors. Just my experience. It's not rosy.
I have 2 of these and my dad sells them as a side gig. They are amazing little machines sorry you had a lemon or are the lemon
How has your excavator been holding up?
I bought one of these several months ago and can't find the manual. I don't know which cap is Diesel or Hydrolic since they're not marked. Can anyone tell and possibly where i can get a manual. Thanks.
Is the filters and parts for the engine easy to get in the us, also where did u buy it and how much?
More HT20 videos!
I got my HT20 last Monday . Mines green which is ok but not first choice . I opted for the extra cost Kubota D 902 . And I did get discount
Ah ok nice!!
for the greese fitting on your hydraulic , you do not remove the fitting there should be a grease adapter for your grease gun that looks kind of like a needle it replaces the one foe a regular grease fitting . i have a mini a lot like yours, 2.5 gal fuel tank. you talk about slow moving around my push mower is faster. it has a kabuto 722 diesel in it. i would like to find a mini web forum for this type of machine .
I’m the future I will be looking at adding an upgrade for the final drive that allows it to be converted to a 2 speed. I’m not sure if the hydro pump will be able to work with it but yeah they are slow!
@@ddranch1365unfortunately it's not an inexpensive easy task. You'll need to upgrade the main pump, add two speed traction motors, add a high flow control valve to switch between each stage of the traction motors and all the extra plumbing. Be careful with going downhill on this thing, it'll runaway.
Haha I learned about the runaway down hill part lol
Hi there - I'm deciding what HT-20 unit to purchase. I see you went with the Laidong 25hp engine over the Kubota 15hp engine. the capabilities on the machine between the engines are nearly identical. Wanted to see what drove you to go the with the Laidong over the Kubota engine? Thank you!
Cheaper by $1500, figured why not try it haha
What is the direct link to buy this machine?
Was hoping you had done a followup video........ oh well
Sorry I still haven’t done one yet. I will be though
Quickest way to get ahead in life- HARD WORK!!!
Buy quality machines and maintain them. They will last a long long time... Made in CHINA- STAY IN 🇨🇳
Kubota or bobcat same size will cost you $40 k ! I prefer to pay 13k!
It depends on how you use it. It it’s for home use around the farm or limited use you can’t beat the price of a Chinese machine. I qualify that by saying if I was using one for my livelihood I would definitely follow your advice and pay for the qualm and service availability. That’s for sure.
What do u think of ht-20 ? How is the Chinese engine ? Any problems?
so far its been good. haven't had an issue with it yet.
I sold my HT-10 . . I talked to James , have ordered one HT-20 think pretty much same as urs . I used ur name & got $ 500.00 discount, supposed b delivered next week
@billmissey6153 oh nice! Best of luck with it!
I have had the ht10b sence 3 2022. I would like the 2 ton. What was the cost
That setup was $13,000. The guy in Memphis I got it from will take $500 off the price if you mention my channel. Let me know if you want to contact him
Would that be James Zhang? Looking at their HT machines now.@@ddranch1365
Yes that’s him
@ddranch1365 well I think I'm going a different direction. I'm going to go with the diggit em15. 3000 pound machine. Gas motor and pilot control. It font have a thum. But I can make one. The price I have paid for it. It's hard not to
@@jtsokiehobbyandadventures6666where did you find your digit em15at?
Where can one purchase one of these machines?
I got mine from James Zhang out of Memphis.
Do u like engine ? Kubota is $ 700. More .? I talked to guy , did u pick up ? I would have it shipped . If shipped what payment method u use
Yeah the engine has been fine. It’s really Been running great. Make sure you mention to him I referred you so you get the $500 off if you get one. I had him deliver it and I just paid cash
I did mention u , it may be month or so till I buy . I have HT10 think it’s little small , wish would have bought 2 ton
@@billmissey6153yeah I’m really glad I went with the 2 ton diesel option
Hi D&D, do you buy from Hightop group? Is it Trust? Im buy one to Europe but looks like scam because we do all by Whatsapp out of Alibaba. What you think?
I bought mine from James Zhang out of Memphis
Hey @ddranch1365
How was your experience with James Zhang? Thinking of purchasing a ht20 from him, would love some insight before I drive and go look. Thanks in advance.
It's not a 2 ton never there no counter weight in the back just metal.
i forgot to say that the mini likes to through the track real easy. wat a pain.
