  • Опубликовано: 13 сен 2012
  • FINALLY! Another track loader video because the people requested it. Anyways what we have is Alex in the 73 backfilling a shallow single water ditch. First off pushing the spill pile over the ditch and then leveling it out and cutting the ground around it so the packer will pack the entire ditch evenly instead of just the outsides leaving the center untouched.

    great tractor. I am still amazed at how fast that bucket will roll.

    Machine looks in very good condition. I just bought a 2001 973c for myself. Powerhouse thats for sure.

    I push in on an angle to manage my material, which yes on shallow single ditch water like this is extreme overkill. Most hoe ops won't swing 90 degrees to drop dirt so they leave dirt ahead of where it came from. On larger ditches (triple ditch) you find this a lot. Most guys will push in straight or even backwards with dirt and short themselves at one end and end up chasing crumbs for hours trying to fill a hole. If you put the dirt back where it came from, your dirt is always where you need it

    I love track loaders. For whatever reason nobody uses them up here in Michigan.

    We actually use both, the 973 will always do first like this over the pipe while the dozer will stay further back and take care of the bulk pushing. Track loaders can pick up and place dirt where needed, you can break up clumpy material more as well as mix wet and dry. You also have maneuverability that dozers don't.

    A long front? At the far end you're seeing a Komatsu PC600 and a PC270 working. Both just standard boom/stick arrangements. Both can be seen in other videos here.

    Is that a large "Wacker Plate" you guys are using to get compaction in the lower section?

    What model dozer is that off to the left? Did Kidco get one of those D-7e's? That would make an interesting video.

    As I'm not the most machinery knowledge inclined... what kind of pro's and con's are there to using a track loader as opposed to a dozer on a job site like this?

    Why not track that in instead of strattling the cut sometimes I wonder why you harassed Scott so much when y’all aren’t much smarter

    • @vantagetes
      @vantagetes  4 года назад

      When pushing material in with a machine this size you have to straddle the ditch so that you don't egg the pipe. Once dirt has been placed on the pipe you can track pack it in. If you watch at 2:30 this is exactly what I do. I pushed dirt out over the pipe and then grabbed a bucket and used my right track to pack down the fill and then cut it down to be more uniform for the K300. So yeah.... I guess I know what I'm doing.

      vantagetes man you’re very sensitive always making fun of that Scott douche but you watched this video again to pinpoint when you tracked it in ok my bad usually get density without a roller you know if you had enough cover you wouldn’t mess with the pipe I’m a pipe layer I lay 6” perforated in the sock been getting 750 feet a day in nice sand digging with a 308 1 foot bucket really getting it done
