Cat 385 Excavator Stripping Limestone Overburden

[@bert26a]

Hard digging, sounds like that autogreaser isn't greasing properly.

[@wdscepaniak]

autogreasers are great when working, but have their fair share of issues

[@ryanozbun8933]

That's some nasty stuff. 385 seems to do decent though

[@wdscepaniak]

This would’ve been a nightmare without the 385

Nice video! Where was this filmed ?

[@wdscepaniak]

Nebraska

Frozen?

[@wdscepaniak]

no, just a strange rock layer. too fragile to use in end material, but still difficult to remove

[@beaumershon3066]

Could you rip the top few feet at least with a dozer? That would suck sitting there all day

[@wdscepaniak]

we tried a few different things. the ripper worked really well in certain spots there. ideally we would just blast it but the contamination risk was too high
