NEW AUCTION! Selling my 2 favorite pieces of equipment online.

What happens here

Perform a cold start on the excavator. Listen for any unusual noises during startup. Once the engine is running, test the basic hydraulic movements of the boom, arm, and bucket. Observe how quickly and smoothly the hydraulic cylinders respond. This helps to verify that the engine starts reliably and the main hydraulic components are functional.

Goal: Verify reliable engine start and basic hydraulic functionality.
