anybody spend much time on one of these? How does it compare to conventional machine its size?
i can tell you this much, it can pick more than you think. The boom is set more over the center of the house, putting the center of gravity more to the middle of the machine instead of the front. it all depends on what you will be using it for. If you are in the road all the time. It is very well suited for that application. If you do alot of site work and have some elbow room you maybe better off with a 315. hope this helps
we do everything, i can see where the ZTR would come in handy but i'm wondering if it can keep up with say a 315
wow nobody? ok, how about how does the cycle time of a CAT machine this size compare to a similar volvo
Our 210 volvo will out work a cat 320 if you put them side by side. It's got a great cycle time. Digging and swinging 90-180 degrees you can average about 4 scoops a minute.
Dirtman your videos are the reason i asked, your machine looks nice and smooth and fast.
