Buying a new Mini Excavator

What happens here

After testing, the creator proceeds to load the Kubota KX040-4 excavator onto his Diamond C HDT trailer. He carefully drives the machine onto the trailer, positions it correctly, and then begins the process of securing it for transport. He uses heavy-duty chains and chain binders to firmly attach the excavator to the trailer's tie-down points, ensuring stability and safety for the journey home.

Goal: Safely load and secure the excavator for transport.

Tools and materials

  • Chain Binders N/A — Tightening the chains for securing
  • Chains N/A — Securing the excavator to the trailer
  • Cordless Drill DeWalt — Potentially speeding up the tightening process for chain binders (as seen briefly)
  • Diamond C HDT Trailer Diamond C — Transporting the excavator
  • Kubota KX040-4 Excavator Kubota — Being loaded onto the trailer
