Very interesting concept, but wow it looks rough. Judging by the pictures the quality of construction is extremely poor. the whole thing looks crooked and jacked up in the pictures. it looks like the wiring is also pretty sketchy as you must need to cut the cord and plug off of the jackhammer and use that to get this to plug in. All in all if it was a 20 dollar item I might roll the dice but no way it looks like 50 bucks worth of niceness to me. If you do order one by all means post it up here so we can see it!

The part would probably work fine for just that excavator only... I can't believe they would advertise that part with pictures of such a bad paint job.

Much better paint job, but by the looks of it there is no cover over the gears or motor...
Might not be too difficult to convert it to a European style.

The lack of a cover, I see as a major issue. I just know dust/dirt/debris would accumulate in that area & make it cease to function. I didn't even notice the lack of cover when I glanced at the units offered for sale. Only after reading your comment about it did I do a double take.

Definitely needs some work to get it up to "company standards", but looks like it is a good starting point, and the price is not too bad, all things considered.
