    For the controls whatever works for you. The benefit to the learning/using the foot controls is there are times and certain operations where it may be necessary or helpful to use the joysticks for the boom and rotation inconjuntion with the foot controls for the tracks like maneuvering on a hillside.

  • @Tscaperock
    @Tscaperock 3 месяца назад +17

    It is easier to use the pedals on larger excavators. But when traveling with it I can use either stick or pedals. There are times when you need to use the pedals and your hand controls to get yourself in and out of sticky spots, such as a hill or dip, (odd angles). Hope this helps.

  • @robbieunderwood9434
    @robbieunderwood9434 3 месяца назад

    Beautiful video! I will add that as a guitarmaker, I personally PREFER the big full cuts with the pith right in the middle, because on either side of that pith is a wonderful piece that is perfectly quartered, with annular rings at a perfect right angle to the face. Luthiers almost universally insist on that wood due to its minimal shrinkage from side to side when dried. I learned that the hard way when I was first attempting to master the art of guitar building. I have come to love and prefer quartered wood even when working on other woodworking projects, for instance, small funerary boxes for a loved one's ashes. . The only thing I don't do much of is live edge work, which is what many of your customers are likely doing, making live edge table tops. I agree 100% that pith in such a slab can be a heartbreaker for someone unprepared for it. The artsy ones relish those, using butterfly inserts and epoxy, as you pointed out. Great video!

  • @LongBinh70

    I've been running my Bobcat E35 on weekends for about 4 years now. I'd guess 80/20% in favor of steering by feet. It just seems more ""professional", but I do use hands when it seems appropriate. Then again, I was a private pilot, so steering with my feet comes naturally.
    I had stopped at my local tractor guy in search of a grapple for my tractor to help with clearing up my wooded fields after a rare tornado went through. He thought for a minute and said, "You need an excavator." I was shocked. I didn't need to dig any trenches! But he tried to explain it to me that it really is a useful machine, so I bought a used rental machine. It had some wear, of course, but it was also well maintained. The tractor guy was so right. I find so many uses for it. And, of course, it's just so much fun to use! It's the closest thing to having a powerful bionic arm and hand that you can experience.

    you never do it wrong either way. the foot pedle is so you can drive with your feet while you suse your hand on the boom controls while you move the boom around other trees or moving rocks . i fine both way good deals . i used to do both when loading the machine's on my trail to move from one job to another when i was a heavy machinery mover back in the late 1993 to 2007 before I broke my shoulder from a fall off the machine after filling it with fuel back in Massachusetts doing road building constriction

    I use my feet going forward and my arms to track backwards. Mostly because I have trouble reaching the sticks when they are fully forward.
