I was just watching the accuracy of this operator but the trick he did at 6.55 was so slick that I had to watch it again. Great work. Great video. Thanks.
This being one of the later machines, i'm not sure what the engine is. The early ones used a Ruston power unit and I think Dormans might have been used as well. I've put quite a few details about 22-RB's in the description of the video if you want to know a bit more about the machine and it's history.
I don't know about the dragline bucket but when configured as a drag shovel standard bucket size was 0.75 yards. I wrote a bit oabout the history of the 22-RB in the video description if you want to check it out.
Time wise inefficient by modern standards...cost of operation very efficient labor aside. Three things but only two will ever be together...never a third High Speed High Payload Low Consumables (fuel, tires, manpower, ect.)
@@rustybycyclebragg9258 7 gallons but takes forever to do it.....as well as cost a fortune to relocate. Seriously though 1000 tons isn’t a lot of spoilage anyways. I have worked where a single larger track hoe can move 1000 tons in 8 hours...almost 2800 tons in a full day. All with no more than 25 gallons of diesel. And also do it with more precision. Have you noticed that companies aren’t making draglines anymore...because nobody uses them. The cost of transportation alone is a huge hurdle. Its 2021...not 1950 anymore. Wake up man....just because its old doesn’t mean its good. I respect draglines for their place in history....but thats just it...they had their place in history over 50 years ago. The draglines that still run in the coal fields are an exception partly because the enormous cost of a new machine in an age when coal is being utilized less. It makes sense to keep what works...especially when the work load diminishes each year. A small dragline like the one in the video realistically has no place in a modern commercial building market....dredging a canal perhaps? Not likely when a long reach track hoe is more effective and has more power in a smaller unit with lower operating cost. I live in Kentucky where strip mines & draglines along with a ton of other outdated pieces of equipment sit idle & forgotten everywhere. Forgotten because a better way of moving 1000 tons with 7 gallons of fuel came along.
@@rustybycyclebragg9258 man you’re comparing apples to oranges. In no way can you expect any type of high lift equipment even remotely compare to a wheel loader. What the hell do you know anyways...all you are is some mundane loudmouthed 966 operator who is too far stuck up his own ass to see the big picture of how things actually works. You just want to hear yourself talk....and have people say “oh how neato...a really old machine that looks cool”....pathetic at best....partly because your way was discarded decades ago. Don’t presume you know me....I use modern equipment to make my life easier, especially when the customer is paying. Yeah you work for a living....but must be a small living with that kinda attitude towards work & progress. I don’t see how anybody would hire you if they asked for an equipment list for a job. And if they did....they shouldn’t expect much with the time given.

Some amazing skills , that looks allot harder than what I do everyday
Beautiful machine.
Ruston was my techncal schoolThis is one of the best mechanical excavator, same of the 22 BE , naturally.
That is a pneumatically controlled machine. A lot of the old boys could not get on with them when they were introduced.
i agree i like a manual machine much better control
Need a lot of patience to work on this machine too.
So does the truck driver!
That engine sounds amazing. What's in it? Thanks for sharing!

its a Dorman 6DA
Loading truck with a dragline-- not something you see or want to do every day
What's the year of this machine? How many yards is that bucket??

@@AwesomeEarthmovers BAX buckets were most common used. Hope to have a go on this next year . Nice video
lincoln being used but bax was prefered
@@DOCTORDROTT
year 1974 3/4 yard lincoln bucket
@@rustybycyclebragg9258 See you in May. Looking forward to the working event
:09... Looks like he is a replacement, considering that window to the left. Tough management 🤣 😂
that window was broke when i bought that machine
Link belt absolutely the best in Handling
This one has hydraulics for softies
no hydraulics anywere on that machine its air
u cant put truck closer has to be at end of boom to dump bucket
Having driven warns you have more control off bucket if boom is lower
boom was spot on for the dumper position i should have raised it to stop it hitting the head board but just short tipped instead

This is the same guy that can't hit the start button when he attempts to operate a modern up to date crane lol
name any equipment anywere i will come show you how it should operate even if i never seen it cos thats how i turned up on site never seen ny machine
Dump truck should be closer for faster cycle times .
dumper was too close thats why i slowed down hit the headboard twice!!
