Thank you for the informative video.. i have been looking for something for my property for a while.. i found your videos about 2 months ago and love what your doing.. when the time comes, ill be getting a groundhog.. thank you

Are those 1 1/2” or 2” pipes? I have the same track, took the zerk off and compressed the idler to push the grease out. The back track slips off every single time I almost get the front on. 2 days and tried everything. Put it on the ground and tried walking it back on with a crow bar. Tried putting it in the idler and using the pipes to get it on the back sprocket. Nothing worked. Seems like a god awful and flawed design

Music is too damn loud jiminey crickets

Where are these ground hogs made?

How can I become a dealer in Covington Va

All your R&d is being used against you. You might work directly with them but they don’t work directly with you unfortunately

Music doesnt mesh well with the video

How’s the longevity for these Chinese engineered units + kubota engines?

Look all you dart throwers. I think the guy is being real and honest. If you don't like his product go buy what you have the money to buy

So I’m in the market for an excavator about this size. I’ve narrowed it down to either a Bobcat E35, this machine or Kymron’s XH42 equivalent. It looks like the same basic machine as this. There’s things I like about this better. It seems like you do a better job with hose management on the dipper stick. They aren’t popping out everywhere like the Kymron. The other thing you do better is you offer a pattern Control selector and I’m a backhoe guy. There’s really 3 things I’d have to address either from the dealer or me fixing myself. I just don’t know if it’s possible. 1) The main thing is I need a thumb that hinges with the bucket because I’m gonna be picking up lots of brush. And I need a beefier thumb on par with the name brand machines. While I appreciate that these come with thumbs, I’m gonna be really using mine so something made out of 3/4 inch or 1 inch steel is a must. Do you plan on working to get a better quality thumb maybe as an upgrade? Possibly a thumb control on a joystick switch instead of a floor pedal? If not, what do you think about someone fabbing their own beefy thumb? I’m a welder so I can build one but what about getting longer pins to run through the same pivot as the bucket? Are they standard size pins that I can maybe get at a name brand dealer? 2) Do you think if I were to install an aftermarket suspension seat, if that would raise the seat hight up too much? I’m 5’ 10”. I realize you offer the SH36 with this feature but I need to keep my cab height no taller than 8’ 3”. 3) Third is, does this model have a cup holder anywhere? Such a simple question but Kymron won’t even give me an honest yes or no answer. And if “no”, do you see a place anywhere in this cab where I can mount a simple screw down cup holder? I can’t drive to see this machine so I have to rely on dealer info and every video I see seems to show as little can footage as possible. If not, I’m kinda forced to go with a Bobcat, Sany, Kubota, Case. Any name brand that I can go in and see. At this price I’m not expecting it to be on that level. But I’d like to know I can upgrade that stuff myself with a little work. Especially since I have the ability to weld and fabricate. I’m not great with electrical stuff so Im not sure if adding a thumb switch on a joystick is gonna be possible.

So which is it starter or switch? If you can start it with push button.

Whats the total lift weight?

I'm absolutely amazed that people are paying this kind of money for chinese crap. With only a 1 year warranty. And you get the privilege of changing the parts out yourself. I guess the old addage of a sucker is born everyday is still alive and well.

what is the gas?

Lots of great features.

On your larger BH40D machine does the blade have "Float" function for back dragging? Thank you

Nice machine and i understand the need for a quiet machine with no exhaust that being said id be very leery about that bomb they call a lithium battery theyre selling the whole machine for half what the battery costs in a name brand digger how about one that runs off 220 that can be plugged in with a long chord instead

Thanks for all your videos! This looks like an awesome machine. Thanks for your staff too. Over the past few days i have shared emails and talked on the phone to Clint, Diana, Tasha and Maddy. All of your staff has been extremely responsive, informative, courteous and above all patient. All this combined gives me a lot of confidence I am dealing with the best company. I am very particular in choosing a company to business with. For anyone considering doing the same I personally, highly recommend the folks at Groundhog Equipment LLC.

Whats the best machine for the money if you could only have one. All around best size power etc.

That’s the same charger I charge my house with on overcast weeks. Can you specify what lithium technology is used in the batteries? Lithium ion is now a pretty vague term.

Can you charge at 240vac or higher voltage? Is there any intermediate or long term feedback from users?

I would like to see some of these machines work on a slope. Mine will run down a slope quickly if you’re not careful.

If they didn't upgrade the chassis, a high torque electric motor will just tear up your excavator that much faster.

How long does it take to fully charge the battery? And how many hours of work is it capable of doing on a full charge?

Do you have a dealer in Washington State?

Your transparency and honesty as a businessman has made it a no brainer to do business with you.

Making a machine for him is some serious big brother shit! ❤ Touching video with an Awesome Machine. Well done.

Dude. These New Machines look way sicker than the Big Name Excavators with the big name Engines. Killer Branding and obviously the factory is getting their shit together. And literally Half the price. No Brainer.

Dam good salesman and thoroughly explains what I wanted to hear. Terminology and painted the picture for us. Looking into these machines now.

Are the drive motors 310? Is the swivel motor a 250 or 315?

I still like the orange the best

What are your best sellers of groundhog over the 1 ton models

Jesus just put that dink in the bed of the truck

How much is the electric unit

Great video. I couldn't remember how mine was tied down when it got delivered other than he used chains around the frame and the boom was strapped down. I wondered how to best tie down if I used straps. There is a guy in Florida that sells a drive motor protection bar where you can install a D ring to tie down with. I have seen videos where new owners back the minis off and dang near flip over backwards then attack when told how dangerous it is. I load boom low and extended in front of me and turn with boom tucked in close so to unload with boom low and extended in front of me. Right or wrong that's how I have not flipped yet.

This is a great machine.

Can the 40 run a Prinoth mulcher head? Their small one or the 450?

Hi Nick, your mini diggers are fabulous, How to contact you please

Over 25 hp, does it have DPF?

Which one comes in at 15 gpm?

Looks like a knockoff of the 35 size XMCG ~

Can you tell me about greasing the turntable and slewing bearing, how often each one, how much and which fitting goes to each one? I've heard you can damage the bearing with too much grease.

At 3200 lbs, of course it can go through a 36 inch door, even if the door was still closed.

from 3:30 to 5:30 all i heard is BRRRRAAAAHHHHHHHH

LOL! LOL! LOL! hey Nick, here's a couple of suggestions for your next video. 1. DON'T try to talk over the machine when you've got it revved up to red line; 2. go find a dirt lot somewhere to film your skid steers. you can't run any tracked skid steer on pavement without it looking like it trying to destroy itself.

These are just rebranded products from China. Gonna be a little more difficult selling these for such high prices when Derette and other factories are doubling down on their US/international sales directly from the factory. Why would I pay $22,900 for something I can direct customize via the factory in the same time frame (if not quicker) and have delivered to my door for $10,000 cheaper? Crazy you posted this today, do you not keep up with the mini skid Facebook groups?

Great mschine 👍👍👍

Could I have your WhatsApp for communication?

Can u add grapple

Safety squint engaged!
