Mini Excavator Assembly & Setup by Green Acre Homestead
The machine arrived in good shape and was easily unloaded. Took a bit of time to unboxing but pleasantly surprised by how nice the machine was. For some reason the battery was not fully charged and nd a quick call to AHM and talking to Juan got it up and running. Taking it out for the first work session was a little intimidating at first getting used to the controls. Take your time and move the joy sticks slowly. If you get a thumb for it, it takes quite a bit of effort to get the joystick to work, apply quite a bit of force and it will work. This machine continues to be hard to start and I think it’s because of the cool weather and my getting accustomed to how this thing works. If I don’t get it figured out, I’ll call support to try and get it fixed. The machine takes FOREVER to move from one place to another, which is good if the ground is uneven as it might not take a lot to roll it over because of the narrow width of the tracks. It is stable when picking logs and stumps and moving them to the burn pile if carrying the load low to the ground and close to the machine. All in all I am very happy with the purchase and abilities of this machine. Wish I’d purchased a lot sooner than I did.

looks great so far
Just got my excavator last week, haven’t had a chance to really put it to work yet, but so far it looks great, everything seems solid and well built, can’t wait to get some hours on it.

I highly recommend it.
10/10 It will do light duty with the kubota diesel this thing digs! I would recommend to a friend I am very happy with this. I believe it will run for years to come, it uses less then 1 gallon an hour. I've got 5 hours on it and I've never ran a mini before. I highly recommend it.

just got my machine
just got my machine, love it so far! a bit of a learning curve but I'm quite enjoying the quality of the machine. I will be trying to add a hydraulic filter and cooler in the near future as it most definitely gets quite hot after about an hour or two.

Great deal.
Unit comes with a 1-yr warranty. Seller went above & beyond when it arrived with an issue, and they get full points for providing the solution & support to help me take care of it. 1st day using the excavator was nerve racking due to unfamiliarity, but after re-reading the operator's manual, I was able to use the back fill blade to level a significant dip (where I drive) near my garage & then used the bucket to pull 6-ft tall sagebrush that are rampant on my acreage.

Thanks guys!
Everything as advertised and seen in online videos on what to expect. Delivery was quick and simple placing the crate exactly where I requested. The 6 attachment package was a really good deal for me as i needed all of them.

Great deal for not a lot of money.
Fantastic excavator! Far exceeded my expectations in power and quality. Not a loose bolt not a scratch in the paint. The expanding track base is worth the trade off for not being able to get the Kubota motor but the Vanguard 23hp is awesome power. I have yet to run it above 1/4 throttle for heavy digging in dry fairly hard clay and it’s quieter than my Kubota tractor. It seems very reasonable on fuel too. I drove it out of the crate onto the box truck lift gate.

Good seller & value
Good seller & value. I ordered a narrow bucket and ripper from them. Both were in the hands of FedEx within two business days and delivered quickly. Shipping won’t necessarily be from CA but most likely originate closer to you. I live in the northeast and mine came from NJ for faster delivery. As for the mini excavator, the retractable undercarriage was the big selling point for me. It gives the machine way more stability, especially when digging into heavy stuff. You can extend the tracks for more balance and support, which makes it easier to handle those bigger, tougher jobs. It feels solid, and I’ve been able to dig deeper and lift heavier loads without worrying about tipping over. The controls took a bit to get used to, but it’s been smooth since then. It’s a bit slower to move around, but that’s not a big deal when you’re working on tough, uneven ground. Overall, the machine’s been exactly what I needed and more.
