Bag got in the intake, blocked the filter, then the suction caused the filter collapse, allowing the bag thru.

I built a lean-to with a 10' pallet rack off the back of my barn for storing buckets, grapple, forks etc. had a lot of old used brick that filled most of the base except for the ends where the pallet pads are.

GRS - thats the plan - the elbow is temporary to keep rain and dirt out of the pipe

7 bags of sakrete for my generator pad

As I have stated before, the hydraulic systems on these mini's is marginal unless you get into the rotary piston pump with variable vanes and valving that is needed to run the higher GPM. The 1.8T diesel mini is 20LPM and 7 LMP pilot controls - this will get you a digging force around 3000...

Yes agreed - make an offer on ebay and also the attachments are more $ and different pin sizes and connection dimensions than the smaller machines. So get the attachments now in a package - like a Hyd QA (or mechanical), 36 or 40" Tilting bucket, a smaller digging bucket and what ever else you...

I can't speak to the TT X2 - but the claim is 2500KG Op weight, so figure its 2200KG or 4500 Lbs. or 1000Lb heaver than the HY 18 or TT XVIII. But also you are best part of $18-19K is time for pause. TYPHON TERROR X2 STORM Mini Excavator 2.5 Ton Diesel Kubota V1505 25HP Engine US | eBay I dont...

The Anakuma 18DR is the same as the TT XIX or the Huayee 18 - just has expanding tracks and not worth the premium they are selling at $20K for the similar machine! 18DR - Mini Excavator - anakuma

For the XVIII at $9K thats a great deal - and the side panels do provide access too - and the top below the seat on the TT XVIII - they made refinements since I got mine over a year ago which is good. The Huayee is a bit more refined I agree, but I dont think its worth $3K more honestly. The...

There are two pumps - one main 20 LPM and one for the pilot controls 7 LPM, which are pretty much the same as the other mini's and these pumps are 3-400 range at most. The varible flow piston pumps and are likely $1K or so, then its all the valving and controls which add more cost. Then the two...

nogaltractorguy - thats a nice video for the Huayee - they also are the mfg of the Terror XIX machine which is very common as Typhoon Terror dont actually make any machines they just sell various brands. I do agree with your assessment on Huayee as a well built unit, with larger tracks, better...

As advised above, and Cover Tech has what you need COVER-TECH | Heat Pump Covers | Mini Split Covers for $370 each. I built my own and you can too for under $100 and some time. For your conditions you would want to go wider and have sides so air can get in/around the unit.

Measure your cylinder length, diameter, and pin size and look for one close in length. Here's a link 82980 CYLINDER ASSY, STABILIZER 609, 611 CYLINDER ASSEMBLY 3.00x1.50x18.93 2.25K, STABILIZER - so it appears to be a 3" outside diameter, 1.5" rod, and 19" long? The key is the closed and...

Yep agreed Bobrown as I said a few posts ago. I cut at 4 1/2 or 5 lately - we have had a total of 1.5" of rain in last 50 days and 90 plus temps at least 10 of those days so now we have a desert even with cutting high.

reidg looks like a very good pin to fix the issue. Also, I just noticed you joined TBN 12 years ago, and you've made a total of 2 posts!
