    Love that dozer I grew up around one of those. My dad‘s friend had a contractor to run the local landfill. When I was little they would hand me the bolt cutters and telling me to cut all the wires from running over the mattresses off of the tracks that would get tangled till I was old enough to run it myself. Great video

  • @joemascioni3101
    @joemascioni3101 4 года назад +1

    Jerry is definately a master on the dozer. You are very lucky to have a man with as much skill as he has. Even if he is retired and only doing it part time. He reminds me of my dad, who did the same thing for me after he retired as well.

    Daja vu at 11:20 😁 Put 100's of farm ponds in when I worked for a Land Clearing company, still holding water today. Only recall a few ponds that gave us problems with old tile or sand that we had to pack Blue Clay or Bentonite in to fix the problem.

    I was fortunate enough to run the first 750 jd that came to the west coast. The second one was loaded onto a boat and sent to Japan to be copied and produced by komtsu (sp) and sent back by them. It was way ahead of anything out there then, peddle steering counter rotating tracks plus hydro static transmission. Great feature could run engine at full throttle and just creep along allowed the operator full control and response on hydraulics.
