ours has had 2 sets of belts and a few bearings the belts cost about £9 and the bearings are £15 i remachined the shaft to take thick discs on the inner sides of the bearings to stop crap getting in and its never had a set since its using cheap chinese bearings I've tried skf and rhp on grinders and its always been dirt shield failure thats caused their demise

hydraulic is a nightmare and expensive when it goes tits up I've recently just done a clean out on a dumper and so far we are at £32k in parts without labour so for something as punishing as a grinder i would go for belt driven losses are minimal and easy to fix when it goes pete tong

£12 per hour is way too cheap especially if you are offering free collection you should be £20 minimum be very cautious of doing fixed price jobs as this can bite you right on the backside especially on some of the more difficult problematic repairs

i dont think there is much to pick between any of the excavators now i would personally go for 2-3 yr old to avoid adblue and dpf -
whats wrong with hydraulics they can do everything that you need them to do for this job i would suggest getting somebody who has experience with rams and control systems instead of farting about with guess work sometimes a fresh pair of eyes can do wonders
