I picked up a KX033-4 mid summer. Got it to do some cleanup around the place. Took a bit to get the hang of, my first time running an excavator. It had a horrible ringing whenever traveling. Turned out the ROPS bolts were not fully tightened and the ROPS was ringing like a church bell. Tightened them, changed all oils and filters, and was good to go. Did a couple videos of some of my cleanup just for fun. So far this machine has been great.
Great video on the wire removal. Will a scrap yard take the wire?
Yes, they will. Steel prices are good right now. I ended up recycling over 2000 lbs of steel total from this cleanup and got about $170 for it. Helped pay for some of cost of the dumpster.
