Takeuchi tb15 Excavator

Takeuchi TB15 Excavator, it's an old machine, don't know what year. It's not perfect but still works. The controls and bucket hitch are sloppy and blows a bit of smoke on start up, as would be expected on an old machine. Needs a new battery, I just jump start it each time I use it, which hasn't been very often over the last 12 months. The piping selector doesn't work for the augers, it doesn't have a cable and never had it since I've owned it, which means the augers only spin one way.

This was never an issue digging any of the post holes I've done. Not sure how this would affect any other attachments you may want to use on it. In the 4 & 1/2 years I've owned it, its had new tracks, new seat, new ram seals (I think all but maybe one didn't get done, can't remember), reconditioned alternator, and new teeth on the two smaller augers (which haven't had much use since replacing them). It comes with 3 digging buckets (180mm, 300mm, 400mm), 1 mud bucket (900mm), auger drive and three augers (200mm, 300mm, 400mm). The 400mm auger has a bend in the shaft, I never used it so don't know what affect this has on it operating.

I bought it to use while I was doing all my landscaping, which is now finished so I no longer need it. The model is a tb15 and working weight is listed as 1.2t, so not sure if it means it is a 1.2 tonne machine or 1.5 tonne. Either way it's only small (970mm wide) but quicker and easier than using a shovel! Pick up only from Woori Yallock (Vic 3139) and payment to be cash on pick up or pay through the classifieds board payment system only. No paypal or the extra fees will be added and the excavator wont be leaving until full amount is paid.
