If you are stockpiling dirt on a lawn you don’t want to destroy I e found it works well to lay down plywood. Then when you clean up the stockpile you are left with perfect grass under the plywood. Thanks for sharing another video.
Cats that size suck unless you dig off the blade side. I'm guessing it's a zero tail swing, so they don't have enough counterbalance to support digging at the end of the boom. Spin the tracks around and just barely take the weight off the tracks with the blade, and she'll turn into a whole new beast.
@MORE_DIRT359 The only time I won't dig off the blade is when I can't. Even then, I'll put it down and just barely take the weight off the tracks. It adds another 3-4 feet to the footprint of the machine and acts like a shock absorber, and takes the herky jerky out of the control.
Question. Starting into my slow earthworks company in Iowa. Wonder how you started initially and afford insurance and all the other liability costs. MY concern is ill be paying $ 300 or more monthly insurance on my company and maybe no secured work for the month as the start is usually slow. what did you do? I'm scared about doing work without it. Still working full-time at the fire department so have a steady income.
@kaic9712 when I started out, I had saved up 10k prior. So I paid for the year. Then second year had more then enough to pay for it. Your situation might be different though.
@@PickleTeachesFX I have a good paying full time firefighter job to keep personal bills paid. I’ve got about 15-20k saved for and a dump trailer paid off and making a small mortgage on my truck. Im just concerned about throwing $300 dollars every month without landing jobs for the first year. Feel like this First year will be spotty on jobs and I plan on purchasing a skid soon
@JeremyDietch-rx7re I scanned local auctions, got a gooseneck 16ft dump for thousands less. You probably don't need a million dollar policy either. I only have that to do state jobs. Skidsteer is a money maker, winter time snow removal is huge. If you charge less then the big guys you will be plenty busy.

And carry a backpack leaf blower. It'll stand that grass right back up.

See I’ve had people tell me to not dig towards to blade side 😂
I deff agree with you
