I'm wanting to buy a mini excavator for just personal use right now but may try to find some paid work for it later down the road. I need to put in some drainage, clean out some ditches, dig out several stumps and would like to buy a mower attachment for cutting limbs and brush back around my fields. I have very little experience with excavators but I was wanting something that I can transport OK with a 3/4 ton pick up and my equipment trailer. As far as specs go I've been really interested in the Kubota KX121 model as it's about the heaviest machine I can see spec wise that I could carry. Looks like a 9K pound machine with 42HP and 25GPM hydraulic flow rate. I'd like some reviews on this model if you've owned or operated one much and if you know of other machines that are near these specs that are good reliable low maintenance machines I'd appreciate any recommendations.
The mower attachment I'm interested in is a US Mowers EX30 Samurai flail type, maybe the EX40 if the machine I get will run it OK. If anyone has used this or an equivalent mower attachment I'd like some feedback and recommendations on this as well. Thanks
