- Cat 60 hand starting, pushing a little dirt, and loading on a trailer.
2017 K&O show
The reason it's running so slow is the carburetor needed worked on but nobody had the time that year. The only time this thing ever runs is when it gets taken to this show.
Almost 100 years old and still going strong says something about what this country used to be. Things made then are better 100 old than anything made today.
Wow !......90 years old and that sweet 'ol girl is still doing it. A true testament for ingenuity before computers , CNC machines and advanced tech.
Incredible old machine, and what a clever starting process. Great to see the old machine being used and still doing useful work.
Love these old machines. Still work and start up after years of standing. New stuff has made us dependent on expensive workshops

Yup

It is very awesome to me that a machine rapidly approaching 100 years old still works, and well enough to do real work if it was needed for it.
To those who are saying otherwise, this engine sounds very healthy, with the exception of the fact that the operator was suffocating it to death.
The trailer loading was PAINFUL. Why was he so dedicated to keeping it so suffocated? Open it up a little and it'll climb that trailer like it's not even there. She's clearly still sound; she can definitely take it!
So, that's me in the video. This machine is a barn queen and has a sticky clutch, as well as some other issues. I never snap the clutch all the way in up that trailer as it can be very dangerous. I usually move this on an RGN.

I hear no misfires.
Norman Hays
So the clutch needs fixed.
Big cylinders....more power....low revs.
@@tacomas9602 Not necessarily, it just doesnt get run enough to get a good burnish on the clutch disk, as well as enough run time to really make it run right period. But we work with it and move it around how we can. Gently.
I’m impressed on how well he can grade with it. He must have put some time in the operators seat.
I have a 1949 D2. A little tired but still running and gets the job done.

I GUARANTEE none of the crap they build today will be running when its 90 years old. Great video.
Amen, including us probably.
@@joebaker3822 We sure won't be "running" when we get to the 90 years mark. Lol
.......yeah, but this machine is very strenuous on the operator, pulling and pushing those mechanical controls and it is low powered and slow. The operator would be very tired by the end of the day. It was the early days of the evolution of dozers.
A lot of things built today will last longer than obsolete counterparts of the past. Many consumer products/industrial/commercial are engineered and manufactured at a much higher degree than in the past with superior materials, especially the latter two. It's true there's a lot of junk out there, but there's no need to make a sweeping generalization and deny some of the truly impressive modern engineering.

I can tell you right now i would not want to run that thing all day but it is nice to see it run again
It's so ugly it beautiful. This brings an entire new meaning to "starting"
To think that was once 'state of the art'.
Using a steel rod to crank over the engine makes me believe more than one person had been injured starting that old beast over the years.
Good luck with parts
The fly wheel holes are angled, if you drop the rod it just flips out, at leaste it had compression release taps.
The world can use more like you to preserve these beauties! Thanks
Pi🤣🤣🤣🤣😍😍🤣🤣🤣
Really wonderful to see this, what a lovely sight, well done in keeping her going!
By
Man have we come a long way ! Outstanding sir ..
Wow, that's all machine is so old. really I like these kinds of machine. thank you so much to upload this video for the world. after the next generation can watch this video. really you are great people. again thanks to you so much.

Bringing back child hood memories older than the hills it leveled lol Cool stuff keep it coming
She built the hills
The good old days over a hundred years and still works! If only we could go back
When I was a kid/teen in the 80's, we lived on the foothills and my neighbor had one of these tractors. My dad hired him several times in the spring to take down the tall weeds in our orchard. It was a beast. Very slow crwaler but very powerful because they're full of torque power. I love those old machines. Great memories, too.
An awesome piece of Machinery I hope it stays forever
That old beast still got life in her, awesome !, thanks for sharing with us.
Bună ce mai faci .

That brand new in 1929 when my grandpa would have been 10 years old, compared to brand new in 1989 when I was 10 is so drastically advanced in a relatively short amount of time. It's nuts.
Wow! Grandpa Dozer starts up and goes. Probably simple design and solid construction. Go Cat Go!
Caterpillar*
Ready for the next 90 Years! Love it
Hands down the coolest, most badassed video I'll see today! Thanks man! I'm sure we'd all like to see some more of this beast in action.
Doesn't matter to me if he was working it perfectly or not,this video was cool to see. I only ran one small Cat for a few minutes back in the 90s just for the experience. It was old(maybe 60s or 70s) but much newer than this one! It belonged to a company I worked for and the operator-owner trusted me to give it a try. Then I went back to my day's work happy with everything in general.
Then the boss gave you your shovel back lol
@@roberttucker7803 Lol,or my bolt pin for purlons,or the automatics for drywall finishing,or any of many tools,we did everything except electrical and plumbing and a few other specialties. You could be right though,coulda been a shovel that day,I just don't remember more than the dozer from that day.
Love the old iron have great respect for the ones that built this world with iron like this
That gentle beast is singing and I can hear it all day long sweet rhythm to my ears.
That was so cool i could not stop smiling while watching that. I hope you pass on your skills so someone can start it in another 60 years. ☺
I will try, if anyone is interested then...
@@normanhays4827 im in NZ and i know a guy whom has two bulldozers from early 40s awaiting restoration. Theres still intrest in these machines. Hes constantly fixing his money makin equipment currently though. He loves the older machines. No computors D8s and cable scoops they outwork alot of modern gear.
@@hopefilledsinner3911 greetings, I know a number of people that have an intrest in keeping the old iron and the history alive, but I see a significantly fewer amount of interested youth involved in this work/hobby as the years go by. Hopefully, my young son will be interested in it in 30 years.
@@normanhays4827 Well i took an interest after 25 years of fire sprinkler fitting, i thought enough was enough and began with an earth moving company. I've been giving new life to a large 30 year old compactor today. So you may be suprised one day. I think your machine is a beauty. I abandoned an OLD victor lawnmower 25 years ago and I've regreted that rash decision ever since. Cheers.
Boss says he’s gonna get us a new crawler but we have to try and make it last this time.
Прекрасно! Просто, душа замирает, когда видишь такую живую технику! Но, тут главное, чтобы яйца на маховик не намотало..😁
да, было не по себе, когда ломиком в маховик тыкал...вдруг щакусит ломик...а техника, конечно песня😁
I had a 42 harley sound just like that, neat stuff good job
This is pretty cool! Who doesn't love old tractors ? 500+ snowflakes it seems! Awesome video!
You will never have to get that starter reconditioned, love it
Well... I'm sure the starter will get tired after a while.
@@markchriestenson3257 a life time guarantee isn't so bad 😉
If rather watch and listen to that thing than see the Avengers or anything on Netflix.
yes the sound of the engine is heavenly
Uv
Netflix is a socialist propaganda machine.
Smallest cat I ever operated was a cat 22 gas engine. Can't remember much about it now , I was 22 then now I'm 69. We used it on a rail siding to move a rail car, 1 at a time. I've seen a couple of 60's but never ran one.
My favorite was a D7g
My Uncle had a Cat 10 gas when I was a kid, the neighbor had a 20 in real great shape , he used it all the time
Incredible quality to last so long
It's incredible how 30 years later bulldozers were already very similar to what we see today, yet very little has changed in the last 30 years. Progress was so much faster back then.
I owned a D6 2H model that was about 10 years newer than this, about the same size, 3 cylinder diesel. my dad was born in 1929. 🙂
3:28 Holy moly Andy look at that girl take off, Wow that's beautiful. Good job Sir
now if i owned very old tractors like those and they still work I would give a good repaint and restore or fix its parts and keep it well keep and maybe use it for attraction rides or shows of such its just so fun so watch these come to life again
Cool video. Great to see these old machines still working 👍
Wow!!
That's awesome!
First one I've ever seen.
Thank you for sharing that video.
That is a prize. It looks so easy to work on. Nice tractor...
Que bonitos recuerdos de estas máquinas, amigo!
Tilt was such a great option down the road
Sure for pass other cars😂😂😂kkkk
The little engine that could. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Sungguh jenius orang orang jaman dulu .dengan keterbarasan sarana dn praaarananya ,tpi bisa menciptakan mesin yg besar manfaatnya untuk kehidupan manusia pada jamanya ,hinga sekarang
I think it needs a Bit MORE THROTTLE ! lol Seems Like its READY to STALL Most of the time : (
Neat tractor Though ! Love the Old ones : ))
Original livery: yellow. Present livery: rust, bird crap, dirt & grease. PERFECT.
You would never fool anyone it was brand new if fully restored.
Leave it in it's workaday state. Push some dirt around every once in a while.
Crush a Prius for extra entertainment.
Excellent driving to get it on the truck.
Fantastic old machine ! 👍
That doesn't look like the most dangerous thing to start ever.
It's a beautiful piece of art and it takes an artist to get it moving. Super cool, fabulously well done.
That looks amazingly unsafe and I love it!
"Dad.we are late for school ".
Hold on.
I have to find my bar so I can start it first.
And fuel gauge combo
A really willing machine. You can easily see that it doesnt want to go home.
Ya gotta be part Witch Dr to run a beast like that. The Fuel gauge/Starter stick is my fave part of the show.
Agree nice piece keep it running for another 90
It’s a beauty, I reckon it would be worth replicating.
Life before warning labels
Life before people NEEDED warning labels 😁
I was wondering how many Osha violations committed in this video
Love everything about this bit of kit. Surprised theirs even one dislike.
Muito bonito manter esse trator funcionando 👏👏👏👏
NY
Sounds like it doesn't have much throttle response. Almost seems to always idle. Was difficult getting up that ramp.
@ɹǝsn snoɯʎuouɐ compression is probably low
Nice.
Rt 30 parallel I80 .....that road coast to coast probably built primarily with iron like that
YES GREAT DOZER
Oh, man! She's "Got a Rhythm"! Just when you think it's going to Stall (when loading onto the trailer)... Very cool!
I would like to see a walk around show the features of this machine.
Столько лет. а техника работает. молодцы
A beinditás életveszélyes. De a hang űber alles. Tetszik.
Imagine starting that beast in cold weather
It just takes longer to warm up.
Man i wanna be drunk in that tractor i wanna haul sum shit
@@jlocc2469 dude fuck ya I call shotgun
That's a Man's tractor right there.
Leave it running overnight
It takes Big Balls to drive that Beast! 👍👍
1929 and still running yeah that's really cool
Lord have mercy that dinosaur still alive.
Great video !!!
😮Wuooooouu.......!!! es admirable está reliquia ,y aún más en funcionamiento 👍. un proceso bastante peligroso para encenderla, de por si con la manivela lo era, imaginen ahora con una barra directamente al flyhweel del motor .me tocó ver casos donde se rompían la muñeca algunos operadores al tratar de encenderlo con manivela,ya sea porque no soltaba en veces,o se regresaba cuando el motor no estaba a tiempo,aún así en su tiempo una maravilla estas máquinas,y sus operarios también, ahí si desquitaban el sueldo,mis respetos a ellos.una enorme diferencia a la tecnología y comodidad de hoy en día.
Me hubiera gustado que estos operadores de hoy,hubiesen tenido la oportunidad de manipular un armatoste de estos para que vean lo que era de verdad ganarse unos pesos de más en aquel entonces. Pero wueno 🤔,todo sea por la modernidad,solo es un comentario sin ánimo de ofender, saludos.y felicidades 👏👏👌, gracias por hacerme recordar a mi padre (qepd.) y sus enseñanzas con este vídeo .👍
😂
That dozer help build Hoover Dam
And with all the advance machinery we have today, we'll have a hard time recreating it.
Not a diesel guys , the red can , and him saying “getting gas into the manifold” was your first clue in case you weren’t aware these are 60hp gas motors.
I’d love to see a diesel you can crank start though .
Check out a similar starting procedure, holt caterpillar 60, in victoria Australia
This is when stuff was made in 'Merica, built to last, like the brown/white reversible belt my grandma bought me from Woolworth
Que doideira de máquina , ainda bem que a tecnologia está a todo vapor....kkk
That's what I like. Old machines should be used, albeit limited, how they were intended when being shown off instead of just sitting there idling or revving under no load.
Watching him operate it reminds me of watching an engineer of a steam Locomotive. Eyes and ears always in tune with how to move your hands accordingly
Imagine how much harder it would be to operate a Bob Semple tank.
Very Kool. The sixty is my dream machine, I own a thirty, d4 cable, and d4 ht4
What a CLACKER OF A MACHINE !!!!
1929!!! A century in a few years!
These were the crawlers they used in building the panama Canal
Never saw one cranked like that before
The D6 we had used a pony motor
I'm fairly sure that's the whackiest way of starting an internal combustion engine I've seen so far!
The real starting bar should have a hook on the end so it comes out easier!!!
Old machines don't die they keep chugging along !!!! Keep chugging !!!
so cool i love old stuff
Beautiful old machine!!
❤👏👏👏👏👏adorei o vídeo parabéns meu ídolo!!!!
What was the rated power and rpm of this engine? It hardly seems to have power enough to support itself.
Nice video and you got a Thumbs Up !
That's one useful rod!
Absolutely love this machine
Good thing I am not a wealthy man......I would be the proud owner of a lot of rusty gold just like this example
Krize
Crema de nuca cum se face
.
Yep, me too!
And off to the museum.
No check engine light!!!!no laptop needed here!!!!ye ole rig!!!!
And a misfire on ever other cylinder that no one noticed
@@jessestout6119 I mean this thing is tough as nails and will run regardless but clearly needs some tuning
It was useful back in its day but it's a relic now.
needs a software update
Probably needs a new coil and ecu XD
Like the Jeep in the background!
great now how long for the whole subdivision
