Hey @James R. from what I've seen, the A-adjustment is basically calibrating the stepping motor to match fuel delivery, so you'll need to enter service mode on the monitor and follow the calibration sequence. Definitely worth grabbing the Kobelco service manual or using diagnostic software to...

From my experience, seeing the bids live definitely builds trust, coz you know exactly where the market is, but it also pushes you to bid smarter instead of just guessing

I usually stick with OEM dealers or verified suppliers first, and a good tip is to always cross-check part numbers before ordering to avoid costly mistakes.

Yeah I think they can help line it up. would be rough buying a machine and then realizing you’ve got to figure out how to move it yourself

Yep, I’d also check the safety switches and wiring those little things can stop it from starting real quick

I've been watching it too, and it really does feel like prices are staying firm maybe small dips here and there, but nothing dramatic anytime soon.

Hey folks, Has anyone here had success using SmartEquip for fleet maintenance planning? I'm trying to figure out the best ways to track service schedules, parts inventory, and upcoming repairs without it turning into a full-time job. Are there features that most people overlook but end up...

Good question, curious what red flags everyone looks for early on, especially with paperwork and payment methods, before things start feeling off.

Hey, for mini excavators I’ve seen rates usually run $75-$120/hr depending on size and attachments, justmake sure to factor in fuel, wear-and-tear, and delivery costs when setting your price

i've noticed the same-uShip gives you more eyeballs, but Citizenship can be way less hassle when you just want quotes rolling in without bbaysitting the listing.

@Josh , VeriTread's solid, not denying that... but I've had a couple smoother runs with uShip when timing was tight. Might not beat VeriTread on heavy hauls, but for anything imd-size or quick turnaround, they've surprised me more than once.

I usually take it slow, drop the ramps all the way, keep low gear engaged, and ease it back smooth.. no sudden moves and spotter helps a ton.

Nice breakdown..honestly, for just a 20% difference, I’d take the pre-fab kit any day. Way less hassle and faster setup.

Yeah, I’d say it’s pretty important, . even brands like Ritchie Bros. emphasize real-time tracking for better shipping transparency.

I’m looking to upgrade our paving equipment this year and want to know which asphalt paver brands are leading the pack in 2025. Which ones are delivering the best mix of performance, reliability, and operator comfort? Anyone here with real-world experience on newer models?

Hey everyone, I’m looking at selling a couple of trucks and debating between J.M. Wood and J.J. Kane. Has anyone here sold through either auction and can share how the experience was in terms of pricing, fees, and overall process? Curious which one you felt gave better results for sellers.

I see electric making big strides in cities, diesel hanging tough in the dirt, and hydrogen still trying to prove itself-gonna be a mix for sure.

i'd definitely check out Ritchie Bros. Auctioneers for auctions and IronPlanet for online sales-both solid options depending on how you like to buy or sell equipment.

Hey folks, I keep coming across the term cascade sale in some business discussions and I'm not totally sure what it means. From what I gather, it sounds like it involves multiple parties or steps in a sales process, but I might be way off. Has anyone here dealt with a cascade sale in real life...

i checked one out last year and while it was "zero down," the closing costs and interest bump made it feel less of a deal
