Has anyone had a problem with the machine turning off randomly? The engine and hydraulics shut off instantly with no warning. Its dangerous and annoying. My dealer has yet to figure it out and its been a problem since day 1. 60 hrs in and some days it will do it 30 times other days not at all. No obvious cause or preconditions.
Did the dealer update the software yet? Ours was doing weird things with the remotes and it turned out to be a software issue. They updated the software and it fixed all the glitches. 355 hours on ours
How do you get that door closed on that "Mowing Truck" Looks like heavy duty diamond plate, but there is no apparent winch or hydraulic cylinder to close it.
Looks like you only have low flow outlets on your hydro's is that correct ? If yes, how will you use the Harley Rake ? I may be wrong but thought that was a hi flow type attachment.
I'm not an expert but I would call it variable flow. We turn it down for the grapple and up to run the harley rake or brushhog. I finished rehabbing the harley rake (video coming soon) and it works great. Thanks for watching!
that’s why i dislike new equipment software update screws ya none of these will be good when they get old just junk that won’t work cause of software in computer i had mini ex it was electric controls sucked any problems stop working
Hey looking into this machine!! Im mainly inside back yards and was wondering if you would feel comfortable going in and out of 42 inch gates with 7 or 800 pounds Appreciate any advice
Absolutely, as long as the ground was relatively level through the gate (side to side). I would even 1000 plus easily if the ground is right. Thanks for watching!
hey I have a really important question I'm have to pick between the ditch witch 900 or the kubota scl100 what would you do if you could pick between the 2??
We have not used a ditch witch 900. However we have maybe 900 hours on our scl100 and they want to buy another one. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
It seems to me that a machine like this should not have a computer in it. Mechanical would be more reliable. In my opinion. Having a problem 5 times would drive me crazy.
Where are you located in PA? Are you still happy with the machine? In the market and was dead set on Ditch Witch, but exploring other machines right now.
We are in southeast Pa. Yes, they are very happy with the Kubota. However, they just bought a Ditch Witch 1050. I've got another video coming soon of the Ditch Witch head to head with the Kubota. Thanks for watching!
Wouldn't be better with a regular skid steer, getting through a fence takes a few minutes to take down and a few to put back up. I'm just asking a real question. I'm gonna buy a skid steer but now I'm wondering if I should.
We have a regular skid steer also. There are benefits to both. This thing is strong enough to do almost every thing they need and you can throw it on almost any trailer. Thanks for the comment!
One of the joystick aux buttons is not functioning. I can open my grapple but not close it. I cannot hear or feel pressure in the line in question. What did the software update do?
They are the same symptoms we had. Software update solved the problem. Let the dealer know you need the software updated. Good luck! Thanks for watching!
@@FrequencyOfThought I’m supposed to have mine delivered this week. I’m interested in selling. And placing a order for another. The work I bought it for evaporated because it took 6 months to get here.
@@dekonfrost7 lol maybe don't take a job if you don't have the tools? I dunno. I'm not gonna get hired to cook dinner for 50 people and then not buy any food
@@Will-tm5bj orrr...and here's a thought...the dealer said it would be in, in a couple weeks and here we are. Assumptions make an ass out of you and me
How do you like the T handle control? I have ran a Gehl with the T handle and it killed my wrist after a full day of use. And has anyone caught a knee on the back edge getting on and off?
I don't know for sure, but they have been running it all day long and nobody has said anything about the T handle or back edge. I ask them next time I see them. Thanks for watching!
Roughly 30k. It's like having two more guys on the job. No sick days, no call outs, it pays for itself in 6 months and the rest is gravy Thanks for watching!
The Bobcat MT100 is so much nicer, attachment selection.. responsiveness.. power.. better controls as well. Good summary video though for this product!
I just purchased an SCL yesterday and have not been able to use it yet... Just loaded it on and off the trailer... I'm just wondering if you have verified the scale accuracy??? 1800 lbs. seems to be a heck of a lot of weight without tipping... Machine is supposed to weigh 3000 lbs. Thanks I will be ordering a Piranha tooth bar for a bit more bucket capacity and scrapping/digging... How do you like the bolt on tootheses lol
Congratulations on the purchase, now we're in this together! As for the scale I have never verified it however I weighed something with a published weight of 1,300 lbs and it was right on. I have not used it to dig with yet but Luke dug out for a sidewalk and it worked great. What state are you in? Thanks for watching!
That's because the SCL1000 rating is roc 1000 lbs. which is an actual equipment rating rather than what other manufacturers display. It can do 2800 lbs 35% tip capacity, this is why I think this mini skid is a game changer amongst all other features.
