🙂 Hey from Ontario Canada. I bought the exact machine color and all on November 13/23. Put 4 hours on it first day pulling out an old stump and a few rocks. Nearly tipped it a few times. The controls take a bit of getting use too but I'm looking forward to getting a whole lot done with it.
Glad to see AgroTK is now installing a hyd return filter. 1808# total weight makes sense...thx for weighing and posting. Some of the QH12 now seem to have guards for the drive motors, too. Regarding the addition of weights below the back of the house, check clearance to the blade in the UP position first. You probably can't without hitting the blade. Long time owner/modifier of 3 Chinese minis here.
I bought one exactly like that although a different name. I put a hydraulic filter on and some hinges and latches on the rear hood so I can get to the engine. In hindsight I should have just put latches on both sides and would just lift the little hood off instead of swinging it. The hinges were a bunch of fiddling to put on. I had to reinforce where they mounted and just used some exterior house door hinges made of SST. It seems like a good little unit for the price.
@@SeanGordon-kk3ifI used a Donaldson P551551 spin-on filter with a simple housing from Princess Auto (same idea as Harbor Freight) with a female NPT connection to tie it into the system. My local hydraulic shop made up a couple hoses for me and I mounted the housing below the floorboards. In hindsight I should have mounted it behind the engine under the hood for much better access but I’m hoping I won’t have to change it very often anyway. I took the bolts out of the hood and put hinges on one side and two latches on the opposite side so it swings open easily. Again in hindsight I should have just put latches on both sides so the hood could be just lifted away and set aside when I wanted in the engine compartment. I’ll do that next time I guess, ha ha! Best of luck with your project.
Just posted a video to my RU-vid channel of a 1 ton excavator clearing trees using the TMK 150 tree sheer. Crazy how powerful and efficient these things are!
does your light work correctly? i picked up one of these last month. and my light only works when the starter is engaged. so i first thought my light just didnt work. but then i must have left the switch in the on position and then i went to start the machine turning the key engaging the starter and i noticed the green LED on the switch lit up, it was daytime, so i didnt notice at first but the light is lighting up. but then soon as the engine is running and the starter has stopped engaging im assuming the switch is loosing its power. because the LED is off and the light not working im thinking maybe one of the wires is crossed on the switch or at the starter. figured it be worth asking around before i go cutting into the wiring harness. not really even sure why its wired into the starter in the first place seems like it should be separate its just 1 little light.
Never seen that issue. It's a simple light and switch from the battery. May make sure the power (+) side from your light is running to the power side (always on) of your starter solenoid. If it's wired hot (not Ignition on) , they may have landed the wire on the wrong side of the solenoid. May have even installed the solenoid backwards (battery cable on wrong side).
did they give you an option to get it off the truck for you? apparently i have to figure out a fork lift for when mine is delivered tomorrow. i got mine from amazon its the agt h12, looks like shipping through priority1 ro double d express???
How did your delivery go? I was discouraged from buying one because the seller said I would have to get a forklift to get it off the truck or get a heavy trailer and truck and drive to the port and pick it up. I couldn't do either option. About the weight, I think the H12 has a heavy counter weight in the back making it 2200 pounds. The QH12 doesn't have a counter weight.
That was super convenient. When I emailed a seller they said it was too heavy for a lift gate, I would have to rent a lift. But if the thing was in a box truck a forklift wouldn't be able to get it out since it would be crated. @@nbookie
@@DAS-VideosI somehow conned them into giving me lift gate, these things should absolutely not go on a lift gate it was so sketchy, I was sure it was going to fall off. My machine is excellent, it dug my sewer lateral up and today I dug up four small stumps. The h12 has a counterweight, however unlike many h12’s including the one pictured in the ad they have updated the counterweight to be contained inside the unit instead of being built into the body basically forcing you to cut the back panel if you want to put hinges on it. Unless you live in a very rural area call around to equipment rental places for a small fork lift, usually they can even deliver it for you, the one near me was willing to deliver it and have the driver wait for me since I just needed it to get it off a truck and set it down. Said they would only charge me half
Delivery guy unloaded it with a lift gate. Had they put it in boom pointing out it would have been very easy. Boom in, put all the weight on the far edge of the lift gate. Way to heavy for safety.
