This customer rolled this machine the week prior on this job causing him to be a little gun shy. That is why he doesn't look overly comfortable. He had some ground give way causing the machine to tip and roll over.
Al Stewart Agree, operator safety is number one. Operating any piece of equipment on steep ground is much harder and nerve racking than most people know.
I do see it’s a older gentleman running it but I would like to have more info about this job site like are the cable logging that or skidder dragging it with grapple I’m just not impressed with the operator at all and the only way to go is yellow paint man TIGERCAT, the 870 is heavy but nice with the leveling packaging it’s also over half million US dollars thx
And? Itll be fixed? Not only that, if we don't go back and fix it 2 or 3 good rains you can tell they were there? Aaanndddd not to mention they'll plant grass seed and do alot for it I work on a strip mines, I hate hearing "oh God you're leveling the mountains" like yeah we hurt them so bad that when we are done we fix it tall and hi and flat on top were people can run cattle on it not like you could of ever done anything with it before!
I hate hearing winey ass mother fuckers that know nothing about this line of work. Look what the tracks are doing to the ground? The dirt in the middle of the woods? That noone sees, hes barley digging 3 or 4 inches of it up a year later you'll never even be able to tell anything the earth takes care of itself. You wanna see the ground tore up come to a mine site. Were we have 200ft highwalls and there ain't no dirt left! But once again when we're done with that mountain that noone could ever do anything with anyway,, it'll be farm land with fresh vegetation and cattle on it, ponds and so on. You fucking idiot's need to get a grip. I gaurentee you use toilet paper and electricity so your just as much a part of all this! You think his tracks are hurting the ground... lol please. Look what YOU are doing to the earth.
One of the worst machines the Crawford's have built since the original 2518's. The difference being that the 2518 would climb when it was running, unlike the 735.
This guy is a horrible operator. He likes to walk way to much. Made a huge hole on the bottom of the hill. He should sit in one place use that boom an rotating head to place the trees. Then just keep walking up the hill for the next drag. He is slow an creates unnecessary track wear
Eddie Mason I wouldn't be so quick to blame the operator! We had a 735b that we loved! The boss sold it to get a 735c, an absolutely worthless piece of junk! No swing power, won't hold a tree, blows hoses and seals because the dealer has cranked the pressures trying to compensate for the poor design. And we're stuck with it until it has 5,000 hours on the meter.
@@edkeniston4786 think you have something wrong. holding trees if you got different heads and have smaller cylinders on it. if its a quadco they have different size cylinders. the c series way out performs the b series. my c model has far more swing power then my b had they have a dedicated swing pump, its faster and more consistent flow. if your machine wont lift the same then you have something wrong. I can shovel some large oak trees up hill when my b model couldn't do it.
patreekiller I'm well aware there was something wrong! But according to Anderson Equipment there was nothing they could do. When the hose bill got to $1500 a week we finally sold it and are now running a Tigercat 822c and couldn't be happier!
This isn't steep, not even close. You want steep n deep come to the mountains of BC an see how she's actually done, we start guys on worse shit than this.
Lazy... This ground is too steep and soft for this type of equipment. Should have been handcut and cable skidded down. Trenching like this on a hillsides is what spins up the treehuggers and kills logging on public land. I hope you atleast went back in and bladed all the ruts out with a cat. BMPs are good, Mkay!!!!
I bet that is some steep ground . Cameras never do it justice. Nice machine
My life everyday. So cool, much love. The stress is real
I work for cdc and he's a very good operator..those hills r steeper than they look..
Video can never show how steep the hills really are.
Sweet machine! Why on some quadco heads are the accumulaters so close to the disc?
06lbzduramax3500 Quadco makes this head in a 22c = accumulator arms higher and a 22b = accumulator arms lower. Some prefer the b and some the c.
Low accumulation arms hold bigger trees better but are slower. High accumulation arms are faster and better for biomass or smaller stem wood.
This is something that takes alot of nerves and will power to do for sure!
Pretty damn hard on the ground yo-yoing up and down the hill
That thing is slicker than butter
i was also thinking that he did not look overly comfprtable on that machine. but it looks like a sweet machine.
This customer rolled this machine the week prior on this job causing him to be a little gun shy. That is why he doesn't look overly comfortable. He had some ground give way causing the machine to tip and roll over.
i have never flipped one. but i have come close. glad he is ok. that stuff is pretty scary.

Does this fit through a standard 36 inch gate?
End game right here ladies & gentlemen. ..
do u need any operators at the moment? I'm a logger in South GA run track bunchers several years. looking for a change. I'll go were the work is.
Y life everyday, Smokey Mountains, Appalachian Mountains everyday
Is he cutting trees or digging drainage ditches? I can't tell.
Nice video
Good footage!
His first day on that particular machine I expect? Sweeeeet machine, some day I will own one. Have to make due with the 02 753G for now.
Oh snap, I recognize the f7 name dude
Is he just learning how to run one or what?
a change in camera angle & time lapse would help - extended view of the cab roof ??
I also have to wonder why he is cutting those little trees. Not much more than brush. He is basically creating piles of slash. Very weird.

Tigercat is pretty hard to beat for a track buncher, I learned when I was 20 , John deere, madill and a Prentice later..Tigercat is the way to go
Helt meningslös maskin !
Do that without a tilter and you'll know steep ! Kinda looks like he needs spurs in that thing
This guy dont cut fast enough to keep a stove going. Can't believe he's got this machine
Bellissimo mezzo potessi a wrlo io !! Ma !!😢
So small of trees
fdr logging
CESAR
That was painful...
Look at what his tracks are doing to the ground.
And? Itll be fixed? Not only that, if we don't go back and fix it 2 or 3 good rains you can tell they were there?

@@ranchertrapperdieselbuilds3632 couldn't have said it better myself
Bunch of vandals. Quicker with a Saw. Pecker poles done in no time and no erosion.
Hope hes not trying to make $$ with that !!! WOW At that rate it will take a week to get 1 load. nice machine I would love to give it a go.
more logging

they have a machine for about every application now. if the 735 doesn't work for you then you should have looked more into the other models.
My 2518 will defiantly climb
@@parkerrowe8902 probably not on some of wv ground
So slow for those little piddlers.

that is flat and he is going up a semi steep bank not steep at all i run the same thing on steep ground all day long
Ya ok 👍
Poor operator
