PAmining Your welcome. I have enjoyed all of your videos. I am like this when I bring in a new project I start doing research I want to learn every little thing I can about whatever I am working on. My dad has had a few bulldozers so I have allways been interested in heavy machinery. My favorite one was his D8 Cat I was little and it was huge. It had the crank start pony motor on it. Cable lift the main engine had 2 stuck pistons in it. It took a bit of work but my dad got it going after 30+years of sitting. Loving the videos.👍 :)
I got to load under one of these for a summer in a 246" wheelbase Ford Triaxle 79,500 gvw (ontario). I dont know what yards the bucket was but it fit between the sideboards with like 6" spare on each side. “2 scoops of raisins” and drive away loaded. The second excavator was a 350 cat taking just under 5 buckets for max GVW on my truck. Steve(operator) said the Hitachi used less fuel/day than the 350 cat. Im also going to say the Hitachi was more quiet than the 350 cat. I lo00ove running Hitachi excavators. As usual, great documentary. Cheers.
The old 700 was a great Joe and the 750 was better again!..very tough and well made machine…burned some diesel with one for a summer back in the day…the one I ran had about the same size boom but longer stick and about a 4.5 yard bucket…it worked great!..not sure if it would out perform a Pc750 but it would be awfully close in performance…ran lots of those too..great video!!
EX Dash 5 Hitachi excavators were some of Hitachi’s best. These 750’s are a proven worker, worth rebuilding and sending out to work again. Comfortable to run for 10-12 hour shifts. Good unit
I've never got to run an excavator before, but I've driven two tractor-trailers with that "Red head" N14. All I can say, I love the ISX Cummins Engines, but there'll always be a VERY special place in my heart for that "red head N14*...
I watched that video I made today. Amazes me how much I've improved how I do a video. Sometimes even I wonder how fans could enjoy those old ones I did. But I guess that's how I got my start!
Dirty cabs drive me crazy.. I always try to keep mine clean.. If I'm going to spend 8 to 10 hours a day and in a machine I want it to be cleaned.. I was on vacation for a week when I came back I was amazed at how hogged up it was the guy running it that week must have been just a total Slob!
I can't believe 2000 was 18 years ago I mean I never really thought that much about time but when he mentioned it being a 2000 model it hit me like a ton of bricks lol.. I guess I'm just being dumb
Justin great job doing the videos I wonder sometimes how you do so good with all your information you must have a good study base. Keep up the good work
I ran an 850 on the last airport job I was on. It would load out a 745C haul truck in 3 buckets. Super slow compared to the Cats I have run but it is a very smooth running machine.
Another funny story. ..k6 an old Appalachian fuels job acuired a 3500 from pa back 8n the early 2000s...we got called in to do a major cleanin on it and 4 or 5 steam trucks stayed on it 3 or 4 solid days n nights....used an 88b for a man lift with 10' wands gettin the boom...I miss every part about strip mining
No don't do it Justin I want you to take a video of the caterpillar 953d 963d and 973d track loader documentaries and the 973k track loader documentary as well please
I love how you go into the history specs and options for these machines. You really know your stuff. Keep up the excellent work. 👍:)
Thanks! I feel it helps make it interesting for the viewers. Glad you enjoyed this one

I think 97 was the first year of the "FordLing". Truck I drove was an 89/F9000/425cat/8LL/20FA/46RA.

It’s crazy how different it sounds when it’s on an excavator. It’s almost unrecognizable until it gets up to speed.
Super job as always Justin. You really know and appreciate good equipment. Great photography and audio as well. Keep the vids coming!
Thank you! More new stuff to come as always!
I been waitin on this particular one since the video of the one with the cylinder gettin rebuilt
I watched that video I made today. Amazes me how much I've improved how I do a video. Sometimes even I wonder how fans could enjoy those old ones I did. But I guess that's how I got my start!
Great job as always Justin! Them ole 750s Are good ole machines
Thanks, I've heard they were good

Amazing how time flies!
Good very nice
You make really good videos.... Thanks for sharing ! ! !
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Hours upon days of research my friend. Thanks!

Cool. I got to run an older 3500 at the mine I interned at in 2013. My experience was the same, super smooth machine to run.

Haces un grand trabajo con tus vídeos
Been waiting for a new video. Love the Hitachi 750
Another spot on video. Thank you.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Your welcome
Great work on this one..
Oh and the 750 down the road has the old style cab which I like myself....it's with a fleet of 773bs
Good video describing this machine. Keep them up. Very interesting. Thanks
Thanks; will do! Appreciate the feedback.
Another excellent video.
Can you do a video revisiting the Caterpillar D10? For its 40th Birthday.
No don't do it Justin I want you to take a video of the caterpillar 953d 963d and 973d track loader documentaries and the 973k track loader documentary as well please
@@andrewasbra5996 Would you like a video of a 977L track loader? I have one
Good vid
Same cab as John deere excavators
Do you have a video of the ex400?
No I'm sorry I don't
@@PAmining Thanks for the reply!
Can you do more truck videos brother
Sure can do. Any specific brands?
"Have a closer look". Steps forward 2 feet. And, as always, the ubiquitous "crystal clear view". Lol.
Yeah LOL that's his style - I really enjoy his videos!
Nice video but whoever runs that needs to clean the cab out i would get fired for it being that dirty
