I'm assuming the trench you were digging kept caving in? If you want to prevent that in future trenching then try not chunking the dirt away. Just go 2" deep and scrape the trench therefore filling the bucket, rather then chunking the trench you will begin slicing through the dirt. It's incredibly helpful for doing things once correctly :)

I was wondering if you use the bucket under the engine's power wouldn't that engine be hurting without oil add engine not getting proper lubrication as it sits on its side? I'm not trying to be a funny guy I'm just a kind of guy who likes I'm always taking good advice
@@maxthemarlin well hey, the plus is no one got hurt! It took a lot of experience to figure out how to get through tricky situations and I still am very careful! Nice video by the way.
The real little machines don’t have the power to pull themselves up and they definitely tip over much easier. I used a JD 110 tlb for 12 years and recently traded it in on a kubota. Mine can pull itself but I know from using little ones before they just don’t have the juice. Little machines are excellent for getting into tight spaces though!
Wanted a trench and ended up with a swimming pool. That’s how we learn “never made a mistake never made anything” isn’t that what they say! Thanks for sharing and well done for getting it out 💪
Well that was a bit of a stuff up but if we don't make stuff ups how will we learn. No damage done apart from a frayed strop, no one injured and you said it yourself, "a valuable lesson." Good on you for posting this to show how easily things can go wrong.
Quick not for anyone watching, when things are in danger of tipping, go real slow and watch for the "float" point. If you see the uphill side getting light, stop and figure something else out so it doesn't get worse. When tipping is a concern in an excavator, the arm can be used as leverage for counter weight or pull, as well as the typical pushing seen most of the time. That being said, the more experience you have the easier it is to recognize when there is a tipping hazard, and how to prevent it. Thanks for sharing the mistake with us. Without doubt you saved someone else from a similar mistake.
@@dave_in_florida Maybe not. however the pulling i was referring to would be a rope tied to the extended bucket and a truck. either pull with the truck or pull the arm in.
I think you should have rotated the boom and put the bucket in the ditch behind you and lifted the back end out. You did OK but risked getting injured or flipped backwards.
If that happens again (hopefully not) and you are able to swing the bucket to the right-rear, as shown in your video, you should be able to push down on the bucket to level the mini-ex and then use the tracks to drive it forward out of the trench.
Sure, but if you run a diesel machine while on its side, there is a 90% chance you'll bend the rods and have a full engine rebuild on your hands which on this little machine could be $5,000-$10,000. If you ever start losing a machine to its side the best and smartest thing to do is turn it off as fast as possible to save your engine! Use another machine to right it.
The turn table is a pretty solid place to connect, but I might have used a high point on the roll bar. I would also use the seatbelt, if that machine pops you out of the seat, and over the controls as it falls back into the hole, you'll be hurting..... A local guy got killed doing something like that, he face planted right into the boom. This guy was a licensed operator with 30+ yeas of experience, but people get pretty relaxed running a mini. In the end its still 2000lbs more than a human. I have the same exact setup in my garage. (Including the TDub)
That's a little fella. 😁 Stuff happens. It's all good, especially when it's a small one. You learned a lot I'm sure. Prepares you for bigger equipment.
Tell you a story back in 1980 was loading a Case 580-C on Low boy with two ramps. The one ramp cracked in half. I was standing straight up looking a front bucket, that had stopped full ROLL by side of bucket. We got another contractor to pull the Case up right. Checked fluid level, she started right up. Believe me I've been in your shoes. Only wish you had steel tracks. myself would have used bucket and Boom to help pull. but great what happens video, my friend. Everyone has done this a time or two.
i remember when I first rented a skid steer I did the same thing, 2hrs later i ended up figuring out how to use the bucket to winch myself out. Learned my lesson..lol
First it's spelled 'winch' which doesn't matter in this case since there is no winching involved. He was able to either pull or push himself out using the bucket/boom.
at 5:40 get your mate to stand in the bucket. It'll weight the front down. Also make sure tracks are extended when possible. all good fun and part of the work :)
That was some VERY soft ground there. I saw you taking massive effortless scoops and was like what the heck. Next thing you know you're tipped over from the ditch collapsing. Was that all just soft fill put in there recently or is the ground like that there? Good lesson for all of us though not to operate close to or when parallel to the trench. Btw, I sense a Mini theme in the garage. Mini bike, second mini bike, mini excavator, mini truck.... All good lol and I have both of those bikes, along with their parents.
If it happens again (hopefully not), will you be injured or alive? The first basic rule about how far to stay away from a ditch or structure (depending on the soil) driving parallel to it is, for each foot of depth stay about a minimum 1 foot away from it.
I have to cross trenches often on a mini excavator, pressing the bucket on the other side of the trench leveling out the machine and moving the end of the arm as you move the tracks like a crutch. The biggest thing is wear a seatbelt. You'll break your legs falling off as it falls onto it's side and traps your legs. Mind you the smallest production mini excavator I've found was .8 ton(1600lbs). RUclips has videos of how to break your legs. Breaking one leg would affect someone. But two, you couldn't drive till you heal and just getting up to take a dump, Amazon sells litter boxes I guess
I have been working for 6 years with a mini excavator sv08 here in Barsil and until today 2023 this has not happened to me. Every machine has its limitations, it's not because it's small that it's not dangerous, it's a lot, the operator's confidence that is the mistake. In this case, I used bricks and stones to stabilize it underneath.
You just needed to rotate the arm a bit,push down,put a piece of hardwood down and do it again, then rotate and push out,,always keep a few hardwood sleepers handy to put under the tracks when you need to get un stuck..
Hey mate - such is life - the smallest excavator i have is a 1.5Ton Kobelco and she is ancient - but even it has the hydraulic track widening rams - your machine is a a good brand as well and modern - you might find that it also has the track widening function - it makes your foot print and therefore the stability greater
@@maxthemarlin Its all a learning curve - starting with a small machine is where you get skills - I have 4 now - the largest is 35Tons - I have a sickness and a Farm to play with them on - doing a mega Dam at the moment for multiple reasons including stocking fish to catch
Well, that was one way to get it out. 😂 That wouldn't have taken an experienced operator 30 seconds to extricate. Just swing the house around, use the boom to level the tracks and walk it out. Presto.
That's the danger with these machines, learning can be dangerous. I was too, thankfully no one got hurt - this time. No doubt when you both looked at the video you can see where things were done wrong so I'll not dig over all that. Mistakes one survives are valuable learning lessons, just don't repeat them. Too risky. Better still, and this is a counsel of perfection, do a risk analysis before any new job. What could go wrong here? What should I do if it did? How could I avoid that wrong thing happening? Think twice, dig once! Or to quote a Vulcan "Live long and prosper". Enjoy the future use of the machine.
Cara , eu trabalho com uma Yanmar sv08 , faltou experiência nesta situação aí , primeiro a lança não deve ser desprezada , ela serve como contra peso e também como auxiliar num caso desse , já estiver em situações similares e sai sozinho sem nenhuma ajuda só estendendo a lança e abrindo totalmente a conchinha e posicionando a mesma no lado oposto da posição dos tombamento , também já sai de outras situações empurrando a máquina com a confusa no chão ou solo posicionada no mesmo lado do tombamento , já sai também levantando a esteira do lado da queda e calçando a mesma com material embaixo da esteira , como eu disse faltou experiência .
I have owned and operated quite a few tracked dozers and I have never had one unable to turn the tracks even in the stickiest of clay and mud. If it won’t turn a track, something must be wrong. Does it kill the engine or is something slipping?
Use the bucket man, geez it's frustrating watching that. Even when it fell in, reach to the high side which was your driveway, dig the bucket in and use the boom ram and dipper arm to pull you up and out
@@maxthemarlin Nor to worry I've turned one or two in my day, the micros are quite unstable particularly on slopes, and always turn off the machine immediately if it goes over you'll save yourself an awful lot of engine damage. Onwards and upwards 👍
A lot of people are saying, you could save yourself with the boom - how would you do that once it starts going side ways? It looks like you tried to move the boom, but that cause it to angle over even more... just interested in what the real solution would be.
lesson for everyone. when pulling stuff like this out, make an a-frame. get a log. anything... the longer the better. shove it under the rope, tilting a bit towards the stuck item. whatever it is will get picked UP as well as dragged forward. its just levers... pretty basic. a couple of ropes with "truckie hitches", just a simple compound pulley in knots, and this would be up and going in five minutes, no sweat. and then you dont drive side-on next to the hole you just dug...
@@maxthemarlin i remember we had in the I think early 70s had that hi low gear auto with the foot shifter it's not made for jumping i messed myself up bad trying to jump had alot of fun
For everyone giving me advice, telling me I should have done one thing or another... Maybe I didn't touch on this in the video but the excavator did not have enough power to swing the boom past certain points, nor did it have enough power to pull me out of the ditch
You dont use tracks to get it out in future you use boom or arm
7 месяцев назад+1
If you have a strap to pointless wrap around the base of the tracks... you have a strap you could have hooked on the bucket to pull yourself out and right the machine.
Driver needs training on operating an excavator. This machine is such a beautiful equipment that it can come out of any situation provided you use excavator arm and leveler blade correctly. In this case neither was used. Good luck next time around.
You didn't get hurt, equipment didn't get hurt, and you learned from your mistake. All in all, that is a good day. Thanks for sharing.
thanks sir!
It's not really a mistake but a accident/ learning lesson, a mistake is when you keep doing it over and over again.😊👍
@@maxthemarlin What he said.
Just use the boom and bucket to right yourself. You made it a lot more complicated than it had to be.
momos i tell ya
Yep. That thing is more than powerful to self extricate.
They are amateurs
That’s what i was thinking and wondering why they didn’t But then again he feel in the ditch 😂😂😂😂
All that's missing is 2 man-buns!
I'm assuming the trench you were digging kept caving in? If you want to prevent that in future trenching then try not chunking the dirt away. Just go 2" deep and scrape the trench therefore filling the bucket, rather then chunking the trench you will begin slicing through the dirt. It's incredibly helpful for doing things once correctly :)

You could’ve use the bucket and pulled yourself out easily the whole time.. Learning experience

I'm always taking good advice
I run a 50g everyday. One think you should probably realize is that boom is just like an arm. Just needed to use it grab and climb out
As soon as it was in the ditch, it didn't seem like it had enough hydraulic power to move the arm, I was trying!

Reaching with no bucket did not have enough power to pull it out
I was told by my instructor here in Australia, the frame the rotating cabin sits on is called the 'H' frame.
Glad you are safe...

Spin machine around use the buck to push off the ground and reverse at same time. No harm no foul pratice makes perfect and no one is perfect
operating with the tracks set to narrow!
This should make other people using an excavator not feel so stupid when it happens to them.
