Another much enjoyed video, again showing the versatility of a 3CX.

Thanks Steve - you can see why the 3CX was king on most jobsites 💪👌

That’s a Monster of a Grey Cab 3CX , You look after them they will Never let you Down

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

It is a nice grey cab model, not many good ones left now. If you start with a good peice of equipment in the first place, operate it correctly, service it when you should and use good replacement parts/oils, I would expect a good long trouble free service life, unless you're not so lucky and end up with something that has been made at the end of shift change 😄😆

Another great video

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Thanks Mark 👌👍

Brings back good memories, i was working on a site as in the summer holidays in the mid 80's, and the waterboard had a 3cx fresh out of the box...plastic still on the seat, what a machine. Great video and great operator💪💪👍👍!!

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

I know what you mean, as a kid in the 80's, my series of 3CX was on every job, on the roads, in somebody's backyard, I remember the sound of that 4L Perkins turbo very well 💪💪 good times. Now I have my own and work it, great machine, good memories - thank you for the comment 👌👍👍

Hi Paul is There any Chance of a Demonstration and Explanation at Some point on How your Quick hitch works for your Buckets

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Hi Darren, Yes I can do that, I will get up close and show as much detail as possible. It will be a few weeks, as Im out of the country at the moment 👍👍

[@bennybucknall341]

Another excellent job, paul. As the first chap said, the machine sounds a bit ropey at times. Is there something developing with that perkins engine?🤔 Hopefully, not 🤙

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Thank you Benny, I thought the same when I was doing the job. I wont say too much now but yes, the mighty Perkins did have a problem 💪

[@mihajlomatejcic5563]

How many kilos does a mini excavator weigh?

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

The one in this video was around 1500kg

[@aykut-xm7bn]

What model is the machine? It looks very nice.

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

1988 JCB 3CX SiteMaster Plus (Project 7) 👌👍

[@markdempsey9618]

Paul are they small hole in manifold seems blowing small bit when scooping the gravel

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

Hi Mark, the exhaust elbow from the turbo was cracked, I will be going into the other problems we had with the engine later this year - thanks for watching ! 💪👌👍

[@markdempsey9618]

@PSExcavationsLLC no problem great digger them your model all new ones all computerised

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

New ones dont really do the job any better, but when it comes time to repair and maintain, the new ones cost far too much and can leave you without an income from that machine for weeks if its an electrial issue!

[@markdempsey9618]

@PSExcavationsLLC very true Paul

[@mkl2004]

She sounds a bit throaty paul

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

She did have a little problem on this job, I wont say too much now ....

[@foxmeister06]

Sounds like the manifold is cracked

[@PSExcavationsLLC]

The exhaust elbow had a crack in it, but I dont think that was the only problem
