Buying & Fixing Up My First Mini Excavator - TAKEUCHI TB135

In 2019 my life changed dramatically, I was going along living my life as the average person does, went for a routine eye test, where I was sent directly to hospital, and was diagnosed with a rare neuro illness. This year I have had 2 bouts of sepsis, which has done a number on my body. So yes life is very short but life can change overnight. Live life to your fullest, and enjoy the people you love. Watching your videos gives me a lot of enjoyment that just makes my life that little bit better. Thank you sir

You are part of my Sunday routine and have been for a couple of years. Keep up the good work Adrian 😊 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

It has really made my Sunday seeing you so reinvigorated. Life has been tough for you and the family recently and i saw you looking a wee bit jaded with all the stress and emotional things you have had to deal with as a family. I could not be happier to see Adrian 2.0 and i feel sure the family will all be of the 'upward and onward' mindset. God Bless you and your entire family.

I’m 100% confident that this machine will be better than a brand new one by the time you have finished with it because you are so meticulous with all your repairs

The auto idle for the machine, if you can hear a click then look in the engine bay for a solenoid which knocks the revs down, may need some attention. Try and use your feet to move the machine round most of the time, id imagine thats why the switch has been moved to be easier accessible while using you feet on the pedals.. its far far easier using your feet to move a machine so you can keep your hands on the joystick. I'm sure youll get her stuck at some point and youll need to pull yourself out with the arm while tracking with your feet at the same time. Please try and get used to using your feet, honestly its so so much easier than leaning over using your hands and only being able to do 1 thing at once I drive excavators from 8t upto 65t on a daily basis so I know the crack😂

a great addition to the farm .

Oofty, sitting waiting on the baler spitting out some silage bales here in sunny scotland. Look forward to watching this soon 🍺

Many farmers are proud of their handiwork, but you seem to have the ability to turn your hand to anything!

I'm 50% jealous and 50% delighted for you! Fantastic for you and the farm, what a great addition!

Great purchase Adrian, Very useful around the farm and house👌

Being the perfectionist that you are Adrian, I trust that the seat belt is wired in too, to operate the green light on the roof! 😅😅😅 Totally unnecessary of course, but we'd all be assured of your safety. Nice buy that I'm sure you'll really come to appreciate over the future. Thank you and your wonderful girls too for making our Sundays!

So happy to see you happy! Can't wait to see the finished product.😊

A very handy machine.

There is nothing I enjoy more than to see you revive machinery around your farm. You do have a glint in your eyes when you find and repair something, bringing it back to life.

Well done Adrian, good to see us boys are still allowed toys , looking forward to seeing more videos and the machine in action .

All best with your new toy have fun keep smiling 👍🤛

Life is not a rehearsal so enjoy it 😊

Best of luck with your new machine , you definitely deserve it , as you never stop working , and a good distraction for you .enjoy it

A great purchase! Takeuchi is a good machine with a good reputation. Their skid loaders are also excellent. Take care and be safe...
