Mini Excavators Are Dangerous!! I Made A BIG Mistake

I feel the graphic images are beneficial in helping to share this cautionary tale and will help others learn from my mistakes and keep them safe. This incident unfortunately landed me in the emergency room. I healed up and now I'm but wow! I bought this Chinese mini excavator, mini digger, micro track hoe or micro trackhoe as they are called. It's a Kymron sold out of Oklahoma and is made in China. It has a 14 horsepower Briggs and Stratton engine which gives it possibly more power than a 2200lb mini excavator needs. I use it for all kinds of projects, from digging, trenching, picking up logs, moving rocks, etc etc. I have a 8" bucket, a 16" bucket, a 30" grading bucket and a rake or grapple. It comes with a 36" hydraulic dozer blade and a hydraulic thumb. It also has a hydraulic oil cooler with electric fan. _______________ My Equipment ------------------------- My camera is an iPhone 15 Pro Max https://amzn.to/4c1LNfo My watch is an Apple Watch Series 9 https://amzn.to/3Vd9HhK The microphone I use https://amzn.to/3P4ma3x My Tripod https://amzn.to/4bZzuA8 My tripod phone holder for my iPhone 15 Pro Max https://amzn.to/3wFpMTh My Drone.
