Interesting machine! Whereabouts are you located? I've never seen that style of compaction around where I am. Also is that an old army 5 ton truck being used as a water wagon I see?
@paulthompson5272 4 ай бұрын
Location is Johnstown Colorado, the highway in the background is I25. Yes, water truck appears to be an army 5-ton. I believe that compactors like this one are more commonly used in trash landfills. The sheep foot wheels do a better job of breaking down the trash and compacting it than a rubber-tired machine and no flat tires. Where are you from, don't they have landfills there?

That looks like some tough material. Good thing they had the D-9 to break it up so the CAT 349 excavator does not have to waste time chipping away at it. Nice video Paul.

I was surprised that he was having that much trouble penetrating the sandstone there, in the previous video the teeth were sinking in with little trouble. Sorry about some of the fuzzy video, somehow the autofocus on my camera got turned off.

As the neighbor's youngest son, David Wicks, I lost use of right-side in a sledding accident at age 5 (TBI). While there were many things I could do, riding a bicycle was not in the cards. Paul's dad, Floyd and mine, Frank, best of country friends all their lives, arranged to have the "little tractor" provided me freedom to get around and cover MANY MANY MILES not only to enjoy driving but more to the point I had a place to vent my frustrations. Paul's dad drove a six-cylinder1955 Chevy station wagon, his pride and joy. When the tractor broke down, I remember getting off the school bus, speaking of frustrating times, Flold had fixed the problem, and I was able to ride again. Today in my early seventies, I often think of the time spent riding my "little tractor". I feel so fortunate to have had it in my life.

I am glad to be able to bring it back to operational condition, even though I had to use non original parts. At least the gear boxes were donated in true family tradition, Dad always tried to use whatever was available and inexpensive when building things for us kids and for the farm. Dave, I am not sure who put the most miles on it, me and my brothers or you, but it definitely traveled a long way in its life. Now maybe some of my grandkids will enjoy it until they outgrow it.

I was from Slaterville Springs I miss the green plants and all the other things. We used to go swimming in the creeks and down in the gorges. California can't hold a candle to the Finger Lakes for beauty and the town's with the small dairy farms. I wish I could go back but it would be cost prohibitive for me. But just seeing this video on is great thanks .

When the HD5G loader came out it was the only loader to come from the factory as a loader. All others Cat D4/T4 or the IH TD9 the loader was an attachment that you could put on. With the Cat and IH the grouser track plates had to be replaced with slick plates or you voided the warranty on the rear end. The HD5 was ahead of the time. It was a factory loader with 3 grouser track plates that had more tractive force than the other machines in her weight class.
