Hello Doug. I used to be a laborer in a road builders union in Detroit. The 2 companies I worked for used a string line grade check system. Pretty easy and basic. The grade stakes were already in place and all you had to do was figure out the cut and fill for grade. Things seem really complicated nowadays and I need some guidance. I know I'll probably catch a lot of crap for the questions I'm asking but hey, I've got to do what I can to learn and keep this job. This was right around the time contractors started using lasers to find and check grade. I've been out of the construction business for well over 17 years now and I now work with a company that does their majority of work doing underground utilities, site work for new 5 to 16 story buildings, but all we are reasonable for is cutting and filling dirt around the finished pillars and the then add the stone using the bottom of the footings as the benchmark to shoot and find grade. It's confusing. Can you direct me to some educational video's to help me get a better grasp on how to check grade using these lasers? I appreciate any and all the help I can get. Thanks and have a great holiday!
Hello again Doug. I forgot to bring up that I can operate some pieces of heavy equipment. Loaders and back hoes, tamping rollers. I would love to learn how to operate excavators and dozers. This is a great video but I'm looking for instructional/educational.
Wow!! Thats complicated and not very user friendly. Better do your homework CAT. Komatsu and Topcon are lightyears ahead of you with auto dozing features.
***** LOL nope! Just an end user. At this point I have ran the new CAT grade control machine and a Komatsu iMachine and I can tell you hands down the iMachine is light years ahead of the CAT.
The cat Grade control is a great tool with much more ability to help operators in various uses and ground conditions.

Wow. This machine can practically operate itself! NICE!!
still need to know and feel the cut without the computer control...................electronics can go just like a computer with viruses
Instead of returning blade to load position it out to tip fully forward to discharge carry back !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
E um ferramenta de trabalho
um dia desses façam um vídeo em Português do Brasil, nosso país também ama suas maquinas principalmente as bulldôzers
meu marido e fã da cat. como fazer pra ser um trabalhador no trator?
hmmmm no need for experienced operators then
That's what really sucks about technology. You can get a dummy to do a skill Operator's job
Ridiculous...nothing but Gadgets...wait until the dust gets into the system...then noting but problems.
lol ,you got a point there
Muito bom

+memphis28571 Interesting thoughts. There is a learning curve for sure, but the increase of production is worth the time to learn.
