I just puchased a reasonably nice 1997 PC75UU-2E
I was warned about the switches. I was told to leave them in off position.
These are one speed machines that only have about 9000 lbs drawbar pull
They do not dozer as well as the new ones.
The cabs are made for Asian build. I made the mistake of sitting in a new PC78US.
This was a private sale.
I am having the Komatsu dealer install a pin on bucket hydraulic thumb.
Still I think I got a good well kept machine. For near 5000 hours the pins are not real bad.
If fact this PC75UU-2E is in better condition than a rental would have been with 1500-2000 hours.
I would have gotten something like a Kubota KX-161 or a PC 58, PC 60 or Hitachi, but they are as much or more money.
Thanks for the input Mike, have you gotten an actual scale weight on it?
I have a kx161 right now, I love it, but its too big for some of my work, and too small for some of my work...lol
