I'm always shopping for bargains, adding to my attachment's. I know the Pro's & Con's of buying used and at auction. Want the biggest, hardest hitting my equipment can handle. So what do you recommend price, parts, service?

I like my Tramac hammer which bobcat rebrand their's .
But I have had on s185. The S185 has Lots of power/flow and strength but a mini reaches and controls hammer so much better. I would not waste time w hammer on skidsteer. But I am mainlyrics excavator operator.

Now size wise/ model sc16/Hb680 is likely ideal size for your mini x, but it's tool chisel is too narrow. Sc22/Hb 880 hits a lot harder with a Lager tool diameter . Ironically , u will find used the 22/880 cheaper (, less demand as small machine cannot handle it?)
