Amazing amount of research put into these videos. And then delivered in the wonderful PA Mining style, a mixture of awe and enthusiasm. Always fun and interesting to watch. Thanks for making these and documenting this history.
We have a Poclain P75B 1984 at home. You can start that Deutz straight 5 down to -20c in 1 rotation, amazing how easy it starts up everytime! Kinda funky down the road, focus needed to stay on the road at full speed 30 km/h. It's kinda like a car, Clutch, brake & gas pedals and a 4 gear manual gearbox. Bucket linkage seems mostly the same on ours to as in the video. The hydraulic fittings is kinda a pain and odd pipe measurments. /cheers from Sweden
@@PAmining Yes duals all around, think it's 12,5 - 22 if i am not mistaken. Quite a big machine at 19,8 tons + bucket. Poclain did a bigger one to at least, the P90.
I have a 1984 poclain 60ckb fantastic machine even today it's still in regular use just recently digging out foundations for a house. It will still out dig alot of modern machines today
Had a friend who had a Case 125B. I ran it a couple of hours. Seemed like a good machine with plenty of power. I remember him saying it constantly having a hydraulic leak somewhere because of the high pressure they ran
@@PAmining she is a 1979 LC80 "Pipeline Special". With two piece boom. It can be used as a crane and a heavy duty Super Structure, and with upgraded heavy Cylinders compared to standard. Originally a Dutch machine. She now lives in Queensland, Australia. Definitely has Petina and is a bleeder but she starts first hit and still serves me well ❤️ Greetings from Kilcoy, Queensland, Australia!
Good steady videography, tons of facts and interesting notes, a voice I never get tired of hearing, and even video chapters! Even though the closest I've come to any of this equipment is driving a rental Bobcat for an afternoon, you just can't go wrong with this channel.
For the time a very good pump. They were available with 6 rows too. ideal for limited power with high flow and flow sharing systems, because every bank gives exactly the same flow. That together with the small size makes it great for high power output with high efficienty back in the day. When even more flow control is needed, then go for a axial piston pump. But then flow sharing is more difficult with only 1 pump.
That's what I said. Very unique! Hence why I love doing old excavators because they are all different @brummert w, interesting information! Thanks for sharing!
@@PAminingpoclain designed piston pumps. And there famous system called "variodyn" have 100s of poclains books and brochures. Had loads of poclains only smaller ones tho
It reminds me of my TMS 180 Grove crane way over built I bet you couldn’t find any structural repairs because of it is engineered so well! I was very surprised to hear that it’s air cooled and I noticed that it has servos instead of linkage for the stick, I also noticed that it’s in good condition because when you worked the travel pedals they are tight ! Why isn’t it in service?🇨🇦😀
Brand new exhaust pipes- looks like someone was thinking of getting it running again? The power plant was pretty neat in this rig - had no idea they made air cooled engines that large
Company I worked for 30 years ago had 6 or 7 of the B models, all were severely used and still had ridiculous power. They were interesting. Swing and travel motors were interchangeable and so were the bucket and boom cylinders. The big Duetz sounds really cool but that exhaust was definitely sharp in the nostrils
Never would've guessed that a company used a Deutz air cooled diesel for a machine like this. Granted they were used for farm tractors. Just never thought I'd ever see one in a backhoe. I've always wondered how Case ended up with construction equipment, so I guess this was how.
Unfortunately Case/Tenneco has made a mess from most companies they take over… Poclain was one of the pioneers of hydraulic excavators at that time in Europe.
I also owned a smaller Poclain model, a 90 CK-B w. a Deutz motor.

😃 The fun part is making them! I can see how they become fun to watch. Thanks again! 😁

. The P75 is on tires correct? Greetings from PA!

god please never stop using that old camera, the audio quality really gives it a charm that can't be found anywhere else!
Haha, that old girl has long been retired! Thanks though!
This is the best mining equipment channel and they arnt even operating them. Awesome!
Thank you!! 😃 Glad you like the content
Awesome video! I sure hope you got a documentary on that Garwood/Buckeye crane behind it!
Nahh sorry I'm not into cranes lol
@@PAmining awww... C'mon man !! 🤣

Yeah,this is the best equipment informational channel in the world.
Haha! Thanks 😃
Your welcome brotha

The 125B's I remember more than a few of those at one time being around Atlantic Canada. Some outfitted with delimbers for forestry work.
Would you believe that I actually own a Poclain!!!!! I love you videos man.
That's awesome! What size? Glad you enjoy the videos! Thanks

Case Poclain
Innovative French company ahead of it's time .
Drive motors made it hard to put on beam trailers.
Thanks 👍
I rolled a smaller one of these on its side trying to come off of a trailer...it was quite a ride..
Haha, I bet! They definitely are large motors. Thanks.
Looks like you got some new boots since your last documentary 🙂 I love these docu's. Thank you very much for making them.
I like the way he always stomps his feet when he git’s in a machine.I recon he’s checkin for bees🤔. 🤣
@@toddprocell5934 Nah, just good manners. Don't wanna track any dirt into them LOL
Blahaha!! The trick for no bees is to film old iron like this when it's cold.
@@PAmining My fave is the old school 235 shovel video! 😃

Interesting rig and it'd take a V-10 to run 5K p.s.i. Thanks, Pal and Be BLESSED!
You bet!
Cool video, neat machine, could be anywhere in North America almost that scene, almost feels home like, to up here in our parts..
Haha thanks man! You found a couple poclains before up your way didn't ya?
@@PAmining Yes, this video feels like I filmed it myself. lol

Awesome, thanks for sharing!
In 1980 we had one of these on a job in Phoenix. It wasn't a bad machine, but God help you if you ever needed parts!.
Seems to be a common issue with Liebherr too
Excellent video as always. Is this machine still being used or is it waiting to be scrapped?
I don't know if it has been scrapped but it's definitely not in use lol

Looks like somebody was or is trying to get that old girl running. If so best of luck.
