Metal linked tracks (similiar to the ones on the high
detailed JOHN DEERE 200C LC excavator)

silver engine compartment door latches
Features a sharp five toothed bucket with ribbed under
Long extendable traingle boom
Boom can be raised high for loading trucks
Or can be dropped low to dig waaaay down
The boom works by two hydraulics that either bring in the boom
or push it out to raise or lower it
Two pieced traingle boom slides in close together
Not only does the boom extend to double it length but can also
be rotated from side to side
Rotated the other way
The rotation works by the boom being attached to that rotation cylinder
shown above which allows it to easily turn one way or the other
