E10 vs dx10

[TiltyShaun]

So to conclude....this virus is nasty and persistent. Worst I've ever been.

But back to the subject in hand, I won't be finding out what a new dx10 is like to live with.

Order has been placed for a new e10 with the hydraulic cooler.

They are taking my old 2.8t in px and I was happy enough with what they offered for it.

Dare say once the new e10 lands, I'll be giving the current e10 a service and a good clean, then I'll be putting it up for sale.

How old and what hours on the E10?

2016 and around 2200hours.

I've had it from new.

Smart looking micros though, don't find the dx10 to be very comfortable in regards to foot position

im a big guy 6' 150kg 14 feet and after a few hours on dx10 need to unlock my knees but it has more seat room than my kx016-4, I have to sit crossed legged on that so there's room for the joysticks as they are low down and hit your thighs, dx10 position is a lot better for a small machine you can spend the day on it comfy enough

mines at 3 years 240 hours paint peeling badly in places, will be getting changed next year (27) for a u10-5(6) with hydraulic hitch haha and maybe one of those lovely little tilting hitches from steel wrist. although the case with hydraulics on the joystick is a nice proposition.

I am still paying for my E10 till June next year. 5 years 0% finance.

sadly ordered mine in covid times where there was a big wait list think Kubota said 22 months for the u10-5 I wanted so doused said 7 months for dx10 ordered it then got bumped up the list as I was paying cash outright for it so came quicker than that, then Kubota where like oh we've got some availability now you can have a u10-5 for only like £1800 more 2 months after dx10 arrived

Mine is over 1000 hours now, paint on the dipper is pretty good, boom isn't too bad, rest of the machine seems to be allergic to paint. Pins and bushes not the best

Mines done 2200hours and still on all the original pins and bushes...it's not allergic to grease tho.

Mine is greased every 10 hours, use to be everyday but was being done far too much. Mine has had new king post pins and boom pin and that was within a few months of buying it

Mine gets greased every 10-15 hours of use

I'll give mine a few squirts of grease if I'm stood about say waiting for a grab or materials or just while the customer doesn't need me.

I don't do them all at the same time. But they all get done regularly throughout the day.

Hardest thing I own to keep on top of greasing is the grab lorry, especially the clamshell. But I do it every Saturday or Sunday while I'm in the yard on my own.

The paint on my one is good apart from the scratches. It has only ever had one night outside though.

How many hours are you up to mate?

I grease it every time I put fuel in it.. and if riddling or pecking I do the front end every 4 hours or so.

I think its around 500. All its done lately is lift land rover parts on and off the trailer.
