No, still on the E19. Should get it onto the E27 for the first time this weekend.

Gun to your head, keep one digger only, which one would it be?

No brainer, the E27. Does way more hours and more profitable work. I much prefer the land clearance to farting about in gardens.
And it's brand new!

You’re going to swap it between the machines . How well does the E19 handle it ? Are you using smaller buckets on it ?

I said very simplePrime example of a job the tilt rotator really makes an impossible job possible
It's was really nice to be able to push the stone to the edges as the loader driver dumped it in the middle.

E19 is great with it, BUT- I was sensible enough to spec short dipper when I bought the machine, as I wanted to run a rotating grab on it and I knew a tilty was a possibility in the future. Probably the only one ever sold in the UK
I would expect it to be an absolute dog on a long arm (UK standard) E19. Mine is under a top hitch, but it has to be in order to share the tilty. I'd imagine it would be lovely for grading etc direct mounted. But I have zero complaints as is- on such a small machine a tilty can be as much a hindrance as it is a help so its best to be able to choose.
In that last photo I had the larger grader on from the E27, as I was only scraping out woodchip and then grading out crush as the loader spooned it in. Usually it runs a much smaller grader.

1 day we'll have a trench with nothing in it. Nightmare to get levels as layers of rock everywhere. Bricks and rock on top of services, but dry for last 3 days

I saw that - if legit that’s a great buy! I suspect it’s a scam though.

You think? It's flippin tidy but the 161 is getting on a bit. I reckon its genuine myself...

My 161 is more of a pleasure and more comfy to operate than the u 55-4 we have on hire
That one is an older one as not the alpha update with auto idle mines the kx161-3a

If it’s legit I’d consider that a very good buy (if you have the work for it). It’s done bugger all if legit. I’d be going to ‘kick the tracks’ if it was local.
