its a great dozer big leaps since the old 155 As from years ago this dozer is well fit for a bit of work this is hard going for her first taste of rock pity to see the paint just peel off the blade with the sharp rock i think 1 ripper was plenty for it like say a kelly ripper also it would look well on her tail and its a more serious ripper than the 3 shank she has on board here id like to see her after 20 thousand hours and how she coped with work and what kind of shape the running gear will be in all the best hope she gives good service and makes plenty of money back as she cost a fair package im sure all the best for now john
This D-275 looks X military, Air condenser on the Roof and striker bars too , the operator should have that blade pitched slightly forward, so he’s not rolling over the material but getting a even level to load the blade !!!
Yes this was one of the last D275s we had in inventory so it was a landfill machine that was converted back to a quarry spec. This is the reason for the "SL" in the D275 logo, roof mounted condenser, and striker bars. Good observation. I kind of questioned the operator a little also because he was very experienced. He said they skim a small lift off the top of the rock because its less rough. If they go down to solid rock with the blade he said its horrible to operate. Thats also why he keeps the blade in the "carry" position pitched back instead of the dig position.
Good to see good comments from operators that know their stuff. Every job has its quirks how the bloke with his foot on the de celerator deals with it productively is the measure.
Terrible operator. Those grousers will need replacement in a week if he keeps spinning the tracks like he's trying to do a burnout. Nevermind the fact. That he goes balls deep with the ripper despite the machine being tilted back
This driver don`t know nothing about the work he do This dozer wont last 2 months if he operate like he do now, I wish I could show them how to deal with such a good machine like this, 35 years of experience on such work.
@@alanoneill9961 Drop one tyne out of the ripper for a start then maybe another one if needed and use the decelerator to stop spinning the tracks like he is. I have been driving dozers for over 50 yrs now and thats not the way you do it.
Great observation. I think this was one of the last Tier 3 D275's Komatsu America had in inventory. I think it may have been converted back from a landfill dozer. Thats why it has the A/C condenser on the roof, rear mounted hydraulic cooler, and striker bars. You know your stuff.
@@alovero2 Thank you very much for answering, it made me quite curious! Yes, sounds very plausible, as Komatsu is introducing new dozer models right now. And yes, I'm a real dozer nut and I'm glad I started operating equipment five years ago. Best job I ever had. Best regards from Germany, Max
@@FatCatGotHot now my memory is working better. This machine actually was working in a landfill in north Texas. It was removing rock for construction of a new landfill cell. Cheers friend.
@@alovero2 Thanks mate! From a German perspective, US landfill operations are HUGE. A contractor from Texas, C. Watts, they even used a D575 Super Ripper for rock excavation to open a new landfill at McKinney back in the 1990ies. It was the only one D575 with a multishank ripper ever made
Nice machine.

Is really that bad of a operator?Maybe he's just a demonstrator!I don't know!Just saying!

Almost makes me cringe watching a new machine being run on that. Won't be new for long.
