If you're digging *hard ground* where *down force* is required and you *don't need a lot of lifting* power, the *blade in the rear position* makes it more efficient.

Also - never climb with the blade in front. The handbook will say to keep the weight forward and blade in front but I’ve lost count of the times I’ve the blade behind me - lost grip and slid backwards - but dropped the blade to stop the machine sliding.

I have the kubota k008. Very nice machine for tight access jobs. Kubota is always worth lots for resale. Not a comfortable machine, but it will beat a bx25.

It's not about being cheap, so many people don't understand that. As a home owner not a business i can't justify spending the money for a Kubota that i will never be able to recover the cost for when there is other equipment that is needed for the farm as well. It's about digging by hand or paying someone to do it for you ( which would almost cost as much as it would be to buy the Kymron ) or buying the Kymron and having it to do other jobs as well. Will it last as long as the Kubota, probably not, but well it last long enough to accomplish all the things i will need to do on my property throughout the years, probably.

And with the time and money you save, you could upgrade or buy the same when it finally breaks down. Some parts might be hard to come by but from what I found, most of the parts are rather standard so its either a trip to the hardware store or amazon

I have a k008 and I installed a thumb, the first thing you must do is have a two way hydraulic valve installed. Kubota only provides a one way to operate a auger or hydrahammer.

I don’t doubt the kubota may be a better built machine and may last longer. But these Chinese machine are not built for an excavating company. These are home owner machines . I don’t care what you say, it will dig better and faster than a hand shovel.

A dash 3 Kubota is quite a few years old now 2003 ish? My 121-2 from 1997 with 5000+ hours is still going strong it's worth virtually the same if not more than I paid for it 5 years ago, original engine, pumps and track motors. The Chinese stuff just won't hold any value at 5,10 years down the road.

I have both brands of machines... The Kubota will win everyday of the week. Different models but the chinese one I have develops problems after 4-5 hours of continuous running as there is no radiator to cool the hydraulics. Changed so many hydraulic seals on it. The seat doesn't hold up well.. the bolts rattle themselves out for the cab. The hydraulic joysticks will become loose. The Kubota can run all day no worries.
