Engcon ec02 £3250

[doobin]

Max breakout torque 20nm. I think all 3 tonners exceed that. Weren't engcon doing a basic system for around £5k recently? Wacker dealer was advertising one at £7500. Doesn't seem alot more to get the real deal..

I thought the engcon one was £7500, plus buckets?

I was quoted £8200, plus the buckets took it to just over 10k..... and that's the basic version, so manual hitch as I understand it

How about a catsu T02? No, not a type of curry, a Chinese tiltrotator! At 5 ish K and 2 years warranty it'll be a more realistic prospect for many on small machines.

I wonder if they are any good? Like a few have mentioned, seems like the Chinese are starting to make progress with their quality.

the Katsu stuff that's been around a while and is decent tack is not spelt with a 'C'

Not much more the ss9 version which has hydraulic bottom hitch and can switch between tilt and different function.

Biggest problem with all the tilt rotators is the cost,even the smallest one with full proportional system is literally over the half the cost of a new 3t digger and not far off the cost of a brand new micro or 1.5t digger

Can't imagine the catsu to be massively cheaper either

How are you getting on with your EZ26?

 

[doobin]

Nobody buying an ec02 should be contemplating a control system IMHO.

8k to save connecting another set of pipes! No wires to rip off on mine either.

It's not given me any trouble, but i haven't used it a huge amount, and I don't have much experience on other similar sized machines! But it feels very strong, auto idle is nice, it's very fuel efficient and I absolutely love using it.
