I am looking at a 1996 2700 Link Belt with 9K hrs. I have never owned a excavator before and was wanting advice on what to look for in general and also if it had any special problems for the that year model and size machine. I have heard a lot of good things about the Isuzi engines, but what about hydrylics , wiring , main frames , booms and sticks? Thanks for any advice and information!
