Everything You Thought ?


Hey Brian........



How has your machine been to you since buying it? Any problems with it ( minor or major ) ? Size wise is it doing what you expected it to do ?

Also did they ever catch who stole your truck ? Just curious.

Re: Everything You Thought ?


Here I am

Sorry jmic I some how missed this thread and just spotted it now.

So far I am really happy with it. I have only had one serious break down. It somehow managed to blow a hole in the side of the main valve box It was down for about 10 days waiting on parts. Other than that just one hose and regular maintenance.

Size wise I'm really impressed. It's small enough to fit almost anywhere (only 6'9 wide) but yet I can muscle 4 to 6 foot granite boulders with it no problem. And as far digging goes I have a 4 foot clean up bucket, 36" dig and 30" PowerGrip and it will heap any one of them up and bail dirt like crazy.

....now if I could just find some work for it I am a talented Operator but not a very talented business man it would appear. Oh well, I'm learning and each year will be better than the last

Nope, never did find out who stole my truck.

Couple pictures pictures of it on the truck that show well how big/small it is....
