- couple quick clips of me running the loader. i have more footage from today that i can upload if you guys want to see it. At the end my phone fell out of my pocket, needless to say it lost the fight.
Sound of the engine and hydraulic pump❤️👂
Favorite machine of my childhood - still love it ! Best regards from Germany.
Germany that amazes me how far this goes. I want to come visit Germany one day in the near future..
Great video, nice machine! I have a 977H and absolutely love it!
Yeah ive oprate one during the 80s contruction nice machine to operate
Very good work. One day i would like to continue this work because i was apprentice but due to damage i couldn't finish. I wish i will continue.
sounding good Hayden..let 'er eat
thank you a lot of time put into this one.
And buddy they can eat! Hydraulic fuel, oil, water and diesel. Start er up and the suction begins!! Haha man do these diesels sound awesome though!
Yup. I need one of these
Excellent video thanks Hayden. It almost felt like I was there. Please put some more videos up. From the seat view is great but it would be good to see some from the side so we can see the whole machine. Do you need to clear the brush back to get more field area or is it for something specific like a building ?
when we moved here roughly 20 years ago we had timber cut, stumped and pushed into piles along the tree lines, burned all we could then had them push it down again. so its just grown up over the years and has taken away pasture. i have over an hours worth of me running it but i have got to sit down and buy a editing program i guess and figure it out. i will get some side view action next time i run it, also thought about mounting the go pro on the front of the rops to only see the action out front and not my legs lol.
No need to use the brake on those directional changes
Saugeil 💪🏻👍🏻
It’s called ‘Powershift’ for a reason
I really need to get to be buddies with you. I have one of these monsters but always having an issue with this or that. I love driving the sucker though. 😉
I’ll assist you in any way I can...
Can anybody tell me why grease is used to keep tracks tight? I now have to replace the freakin seal😡. Why not just have it tensioned by a monster threaded shaft that you could turn? I’m sure they got a good reason but ticks me off to have to drop track to replace a stupid seal!
They used to way back in the day like mid 1950’s. Grease was brought in as it’s very easy to adjust the tracks rather than the threaded rod and adjusting nut seizing up. The track adjuster on a 977 is easy to repair especially if you have the gator style master clamps for the tracks. I rebuilt my left adjuster on mine and had to press the master pin which was a pain
@@HaydenIngram did you drop the track?
@@thenotsojollyrancher-akate9516 yes I did. It’s just a lot easier that way.
@@HaydenIngram were you able to drive pin out or just cut and reveled?
@@thenotsojollyrancher-akate9516 I drove the pin out and tacked it back once I put it back together.
Think thats a K with that Muffler arrangement
It’s an L. Changed from K to L at s/n 11k3919. Mine is 11k404x.
Your fired they must be paying you by the hour.
My equipment my property.
People don't understand. The sound of the skip loader. The smell from the diesel!!
The smell of fresh dirt!!
That thing don't have a decelerator petal on it......open it up and let it breath.
No track loader does. Some people throttle down to shift others don’t. Doesn’t make a difference if you do or don’t.
u dont throtle down when u change gears meant to run full throtle all the time
Do it on a dozer can do it on a loader. Wont hurt a thing.

You supposed to have long pants on and work boots steel toe long sleeve shirt so you don't get poison ivy operating heavy equipment is not a luxury it's a job taking very seriously
Yeah I know. It was 90+ outside. Not making excuses but had worked 10 hours at my day job in work pants and boots couldn’t stand it any more in that attire.

cats claim to fame poweshift under full load
No Need to Decelarate !!!!!!!!!!
Why not its got to be easier on the trans instead of full noise forward to reverse. Makes sense to.
@@bush600r2
If it was designed to decelerate it would have foot throttle !!.
The whole idea of powershift is to speed up the cycle !!.
We've run em all and never decelerate unless backing out of boggy ground
no need to decellarate you are doing damage to trans thse were made to shift wo
Still working fine no issues, dozers have decelerator pedal same difference only I’m doing it with the throttle lever rather than a pedal.
@@HaydenIngram those trans were dezignedto shift under full throttle they have a modulating valve that doesnt apply full clutcth pressure for a second 30 per cent if mem serves me correct
