Hey commenters..... if you're truly a professional with valuable advice, why not politely suggest methods for helping this young man (and any of us for that matter) to become more competent and professional, instead of bashing his work. Everyone starts at the bottom and learns through mistakes and/or being shown the correct way. There is no benefit to slamming someone's hard work. If you read this gentlemen's replies to comments, he isn't acting cocky or over-confident and seems appreciative of professional advice. If you know everything already, why in the hell would you waste time watching these videos? I'm a long-time contractor who builds high-end customs in CA....and I'm learning new methods all the time. I came to this site because I'm getting ready to drop $$ on a new machine and wanted to see it work. Peace!
@@cameronward7137 I'm in Texas and I'm thinking about getting in to the business. That video would be nice and helpful. Thanks and keep up the videos they are great.
Assume that your SVL 75-2 is low flow. Do you think that if you had high flow, it would not have bogged down as much? Trying to decide whether to spend more on the high flow hydraulics. Thanks
I think high flow would have mowed better and kept the bushhog turning fast but the bogging was from a lack of engine power. But if u had high flow it could have mowed easier therefore not needed so much engine up...if that makes sense. Some of the material not on film was 10-15' high of brirs and weeds/brush so even with regular flow this was probably the most extreme conditions ill ever tackle.
Thatcher N while it is regenerating it needs to be above half throttle so it can burn out the soot but as far as running it wide open..I rarely ever do. Maybe Bushhogging really thick material continuously or if I’m pushing piles of dirt fast . Usually I run it just above 3/4 throttle then if I need extra I’ll step on the peddle to the floor for a few seconds.
MrOlddave I go back and forth with it. I cut out a hill behind a house yesterday about 4’ and the 75 was perfect for it. It was in tight quarters and I could even turn around in my work area. The 75 does everything I want it to. Yes the 95 has more power more ass and more lift but I rarely ever need that. I am however in backyards and tighter areas often. I think the times I need the extra power of a 95 wouldn’t be enough times for me to justify the extra money and cost of operation. I think I would wish I had a smaller one to get in the tight gate or between those trees more often then needing more power.

Nice job! Those cutters make quick work of that stuff!
Elite Earthworks LLC you need one of those.
Great work! How many hours do you think it took you to clear out that 10 acres?
I think I had about 12 hours in it but can’t really remember. It was over a year ago.
Cameron Ward awesome thank you. How wide was that cutter? Looks like 5’?
Tyler Lydiatt cuts 6’. Overall is about 6’6”

@@cameronward7137 I thought with a DPF machine you gotta run it full blast or it will clog the filter.
Thatcher N not true

Thanks will do!
So if you had it to do over would you have spent the extra 10k and bought the 95?

I bought the SVL 65, Hi-flow, wide tracks, quick coupler, AC cab. . It's got plenty of power and fits perfectly in my 14' dump trailer.
At 6:00 you mention it got soft and there was a creek. Do you think we could possibly cross on atvs or nah?
I was at my work limit of 10 hrs so i couldn't cut all the way down to the "soft" part however i could see a pond to the right.
