Is there a problem with my mini excavator?

Is there a problem with my mini excavator?

If your cycle times and pressures are at factory specification there isn’t a problem with the machine. Your machine is pretty old speaking in mini excavator terms. It is also a gray market machine. I haven’t looked at one of those in years but as I recall they even had gear pumps.

Why is my excavator not pushing my truck?

We noticed it when trying to push our stuck dump truck out of a ditch, the truck is a small ford f800 five yard that was empty at the time, and the excavator couldn’t do it, it would not spin the tracks, just seemed to not have enough power. This size machine should push that small truck out of that situation no problem.

Can a Hitachi excavator have a lack of power?

Hitachi are pretty good at building an excavator and I would say with some certainty that you have a lack of power from the engine. Is the engine smoky/hard to start?

Why are the blades on my excavator phony?

The phony blades they put on them are designed to fill a ditch back in and nothing more. Operators are generally not the most reliable people to believe when it comes to the production of the machine. The factory has specifications which are specific benchmarks on machine performance.

What’s the cycle time on an excavator boom up?

All you can do is check the hydraulic pressures and cycle times. I don’t have either specification here with me but many times you can check other machines of the same size for a general statement on cycle times. I know for instance that standard cycle time for boom up in larger excavators is around 4 seconds.

Can a dump truck push an excavator?

Also when trying to push the dump truck out of the ditch it would not spin the tracks, it just bogs, the machine even stalled a couple times when digging rock, is this normal? Maybe the pressure relief valves are out of whack? How can I check this? What should the hydraulic pressure be? Yes the machine will lift it self up off the ground.
