    Very nice. Seems like an operator who really knows their machine and how to use weight transfer and implements to break free. Nice video.

    Good job. I have never been stuck in my D9R with the ripper. But I have been stuck in the same D9R without a ripper. I was making access roads for dump trucks to bring clean fill at Fresh Kills Landfill. The area was dry, and it had not rained in weeks. I backed off my own ros to let a truck dump stone, and "plump" in went the D9. I called for help, and two of my buddies (coworkers) came and pushed me back onto my access road. They were in a D6R LGP and a Track loader 973. They both were able to push me without sinking one inch. Sometimes, there would be ground water. (Leachate) just a few feet under the surface. This made it look dry. You could walk on it. Drive a pickup truck, Swamp Cat, or Trax on it. Even a Cat 400 or 745 6x6 on it. But a fully loaded 10 or 18 wheel dump truck or D9. Nope. Hence, we had to build access roads everywhere.

    Pretty good way of getting some dry soil under the front of the tracks with the blade and then sticking the ripper down and trying to get the soil under the tracks. Excellent job on that..and also excellent job to the operator to get help when he knew hes screwed. One definitely needs to man up and ask help when needed and not get into worse trouble.

    What I observed mAINLY---was the operator keeping a cool head, not abusing the Cat at all, and slowly working his way out. A panicked dummy would have cranked that throttle up and dug to China. Good job I think, nice to watch.

    If you operate a dozer and you have never got stuck in the mud, then you are not a good dozer operator. The point is, getting stuck is actually quite common when working with heavy mud. The heavier the machine, the more likely it will bog down. A D10 is fairly to moderately heavy. So getting her out can take a little time and patience. To those that think and or believe dozer operators should never ever get stuck in the mud, you really don't know what you are talking about. All tracked vehicles can get stuck. A good operator might know how to avoid it, but a get operator does the job and if the dozer gets stuck in the mud, he gets her out.🔧

      +Erika Krausmann a d10 is the second largest dozer caterpillar makes... so yea I would say it's a pretty heavy machine

      Getting stuck in mud is the measure of a good operator huh. I've bogged a d9 and a d85 so i guess I'm a great operator. I'll just stay away from the mud in the 475. Shut down operations to retrieve a 100+ tonne dozer won't go over well.

    The ripper was used to first break the suction and get the tracks up on the surface again, then it was used to push as every little bit helps in a case like this. Oh and you might want to check your fuel consumption you see to be off by a whole decimal place and then some.

  • @vantagetes
    @vantagetes  12 лет назад

    @chasejanus Lift the tracks up with ripper and blade to break the suction and let dirt fall under the tracks. Then lift the blade and slowly track forward as you shank out (pushes). You can use the ripper and blade to kind of pack the area first. The second you make no progress STOP so you can still be towed.

    It was deeper the further you go back, and once the back idler is under the surface it won't climb up and out but rather drive itself further down.

    Lifting the back of the tractor with the ripper is to break the suction the mud has on the bottom of the tractor.

    Beautiful machines to operate and mega capable....but 72 tonnes doesn't normally go well on soft snot, once the belly plate is taking the weight of the machine the tracks won't move it.....good deal using the tyne to push it out. How easy the tyne went in shows the machine is on +++ soft material and that always gives an "oh shit" feeling when the machine starts going down.

    @catkomatsudeere115 An LGP option on a 10 is kinda of a moot subject. That much weight on wider tracks is still too heavy. As far as I can remember 24" shoes are the only option on a 10.

    Could you walk around and shake the camera some more? I didn't get seasick enough.
    Otherwise, this was interesting to watch. But seriously, your tracks were packed with mud, making them into one slick surface with no tread. Why wouldn't you pull the mud out from the tracks on top so when they go back around they could actually get some traction? Why would you try to drive up and over a mud mound when you could reverse out of there, or try turning sideways?

      vantagetes great job getting out only problem is wrong machine for the job at hand. i know the 10 moves a tremendous amount of soil but in those conditions a lighter machine with wider pads in long run save time and money. Simply because of time spent getting unstuck verses moving material.
