Which minis if any have the aux on the joystick preferable a swivel button for grab and tilt grader etc?

Loads these days.

Bobcat
Cat
Yanmar
Sany
Sunward
Lui gong

Can all have twin aux on rollers- I think all have the offset on the left roller until you press a button to divert it.

You won’t look back. It was my main reason for purchasing the Hyundai when I was buying my first new digger, and having two rollers on a 1.9 was the main reason for buying the Bobcat e19.

How much was that Aidan? Hows it performing?
I did have a price for the case version but for some reason the pdf is corrupt for the price but none of the other pdfs that were sent, if I remember correctly 16.5 maybe more
Case apparently bought out eurocomach but for some reason they only sell the 2.5t in their own colours and not the 2.8t. only problem with that micro is the width it's just short of 800mm wide which probably makes it too big for a micro

I've been looking into this alot recently- sick to death of the pedals on my Tb216 doing walling with the grab.
Wacker ET 18/20is on pedal for offset but forward back rather than side to side motion. joysticks for aux.
Kubota- pedal as standard-
Hitachi zx19-6 (not U) is pedal for offset- joystick for aux.
Yanmar sv19vt is dedicated joystick for both aux and offset.
Volvo is joystick only you have to flick between aux and offset (not ideal)
Takeuchi- 216 is pedals for everything unless factory order
Bobcat -haven't enquired.

Of all the above the Yanmar would be best for grabwork as no pedals at all except for tracking. Haven't actually tried the sv19 yet though

What about case. I'm sure they must be joystick and they are available with va boom which might allow you to beef around some bigger stones with the smaller machine

Haven't looked at the case tbh- our local dealer said he didn't rate them hence why they stick to case for the big machines and Wacker for the mini range. His words not mine...

Think the new Tak 320 is on the sticks. No idea what they are price wise though l.

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better

think the VA boom models are all Eurocomach as they're now owned by Case

That Eurocomach 1.9t with a TAB boom looks a hell of a tool. Shame I don’t do much 1.9t work anymore and I bet it’s the same money as another brands 2.8t.

I can't see the point it at all on a machine that small.
Why would it be a hell of a tool? Got to be more weight in the boom for marginal benefit.. plus bulky rams to looks past that will be in your line of sight.. or am I missing something

Tab boom is always useful. You’d lift much more. Good size engine.

If it were a 2.8t I’d be looking at it much more closely though.
