Great idea creating this sub forum allowing us to share our projects

I been digging away in my backyard the last few weeks. did a little experiment with battery life.... Dropped the hoe in a good digging spot, used no track drive, just flipped the switch and kept digging till the low level cut off. pump speed was set to 95% and using a stop watch I got exactly 25 minute run time with my Gens ace 8400 which was at 60% when I started. Since that test I find that I operate better and more comfortable when I set the pump speed at 80% and the run time on the battery is way up.

anyway, here are some pics of what I got done in that 25 minute test. Not a smooth operator yet but still managed to move a decent amount I think?.....

the 2 piles is what I accomplished.



then after a re charge and some more work until the bugs drove me out of the yard




I plan on using the dirt for fixing and filling low spots in the road





I need to do something with the tires on the dump truck. with a full load it wont steer very well at all I have the rear axle locked and the front tires are too soft and this is what happened.....



Decent size pile. I tried to clean it up the other day but once again, the bugs drove me crazy!



ive had nothing but trouble trying to upload HD videos lately but heres what worked so far.
