Excellent videos, I have just purchased a 1987 TEREX 82-30 B with a Hyster W12E winch to add to my recovery fleet over here in Scotland Inspired by the Quiring Towing Team , Keep up the good work.
Al quiring is absolutely amazing. Watched him on TV and couldn't help but admire him. He is the guy you want coming to save your ass. He doesn't stop till he succeeds period. Would love to see more of him. And I really enjoy your heavy equipment videos. Thank you 👍
It was Remembrance day, when this was filmed. Al made a point of stopping everyone,gathering us together,he respectfully said a few words of respect,then had us be silent for a minute.He is a true Gentlemen and man of integrity.
Loved both parts of this....the 'Niner sounds great in surround sound AND it's a restored jobbie....even better :D A difficult job pulling 38 tons of dead-weight uphill too!!
Unsung heros, tow-men are. These ole boys did a hell of a job. I.E machine was recovered and no one was hurt in the process. Success day in Canada or United States as far as I'm concerned
What impresses me most is the role of the other Volvo excavator. The power of hydraulics! 'Scuse my ignorance, but would log rollers beneath the seized tracks have helped, even given the extremely wet and muddy conditions?
Great job. I've seen a big excavator get stuck while trying to dig out an excavator that was sunk in a mud pool. They both ended up sinking in the hole,,, and I think they're still there if you want go get them.
nothing better than watching cat dozers flex them muscles. surprised they don't try making a custom weight set for winch dozers where the blade goes. give some added weight to the front.
@courtielover You know absolutely zero(or less),and now the entire world knows it as well.This is all silt from a gravel washing plant.The berm was all dried silt,with water behind it,as well as being the rainy season,it gave way.Your not welcome here anymore.May many read this and you become known for "not knowing"
The Hyster w12 winch on the D9 can pull aroud 60 ton single line , add a snatch block and thats 120 ton pull, The only problem i see traction for the dozers, could have burried the blade of the D8 in and anchored from it. The winch has loads more power than the Backhoe its just trying to engage it correctly on to the ground, Thats why the largest mining shovels are all rope and winch powered.
no shit something snapped when you here a loud bang. the dozer lurches, and you see sparks fly! And what the hell happened to it. I think it would be easier to just get the service truck in there and pull that out rather than that.
Not to critize one's actions, but why not just pop the sun gears out of the planetary drives on the hoe, much less brute force, then just block the tracks as you go, I've done it before on a stuck 330BL log loader.
You should have just used the other two backhoe's to get the dead one out, it would have been alot faster and easier. To prove it, just watch the part when the one Hoe pulls the dead one (I know that u are using a snatch block).The backhoe has way more pull power than the winch on the cats. And the Hoe would be able to lift aswell as pull.
What happen with hidraulyc motor track when the track is stopped?

AL isn't the student of recovery he's the professor and the few times I've had the privilege of working a job with him I know to watch and learn......too many Monday morning quarterbacks on here
Excavator track drives ALWAYS have the brakes applied.They hydraulicly release when there is oil pressure applied by engaging travel functions.this machine was dead,these were professionals doing the recovery.Every option was thought out.

That's some impressive work. Got to be tough on the under carriage

That’s a skull drag if I’ve ever seen one, good job lads

Good luck,thanks for watching!
I would have loved seeing that in person skadill
these guys know what they are doing, good recovery.
Those are some stout cables!

Cat moving Volvo is what I see, and I have seen it before.
i love how you filmed this...

Good Job
Amazing. Would you ever consider a follow video of the machine restored and back to work?
I hate it when that happens!
nasty weather for a recovery of that nature. they did a great job of skidding that excavator out of there!

@dejanira2 Was dragged as far as the vid shows,then put on a truck and taken to the dealer for insurance rebuild
good idea
@69rd96 It had a severed track final drive
very fun to watch =)
2:56 - really dangerous if someone is in the way of a cable ...

would placing steel plates the length of the ho's tracks under the tracks assist in allowing the ho to be pulled/slid??
@KartAnimal29 This thing was right on its side and sucked in water,its dead!
How far was it dragged and what happened to it after?
Is there some reason the cable can not be routed to the front of the Dozer, and then use the blade as an anchor?
Eye opener for somebody lol.
Was Al there?

Does Al Still do this type of work. I've seen him on Highway Through Hell alot so I'm wonderingif he still has time to do jobs such as this?
+briand01 He'll pull anything out of anywhere,anytime still
Cool ! I found these videos before HIghway to hell started. haven't seen any reallly recent ones though Thanks Skadill
They like there volvo's
if it was like my deere you could have taken the sproket bolts out and it the tracks would have freewheeled
You are right. Unbolt the finals and pull out the gears. Did it with a burned one and it rolled quite easily
why didn;t you guys just fire the machine up after you got it unstuck ?
this in alberta?

Uh,no that doesnt work.
What a waste of equipment!!
tonka tonka
take care
oh ya.... not haveing a good day.
dum fux need to engage the travel pedals even though the engine isnt running it will let the tracks roll
@courtielover
hahaha what a joke.
I'm 16 as well and operate, (probably better then you) but you obviously do not have a clue.
