450K dozer making room for more dirt grading

I use a john deere 450K dozer to knock down piles of dirt to make room for more trucks to dump.

Wow this was so cool to watch...great camera angles.

Glad you enjoyed it

[@stevengibbs4152]

LM, for not being a dozer driver you did a fine job! You held good grade across a fairly large area. (I also cross travel which helps a lot) And I will just wait till your next edited video come out. Thanks.

[@TheLeverMonkey]

Thanks for that!

[@RollinRo530]

Those are pretty cool used one in jobcorps. The auto grade setting is superb

[@TheLeverMonkey]

Never use the auto grade. Old school here.

Shane, it’s like riding a bicycle! Good job and well done. Tom

[@richardsnyder9271]

Love moving dirt like that. Not a lot to it, just back and forth. Can solve the world's problems in the cab.

😂👍😜

Good Job Dozer Lever Monkey. I learned a a JD 450, the steering clutch s like a old D8

[@TheLeverMonkey]

I learned on an old D7 that had a pony motor and a giant clutch bar sticking out of the deck to start it moving.

Love the videos! I run an excavator mostly and sometimes a dozer but I'd love to spend some more time in a dozer

[@TheLeverMonkey]

Me too

[@dlogan3004]

I rough in between 2.1 and 2.5. Make my final passes on about 1.6. If I’m using gps you can bump up to around 1.8 and keep it smooth

[@TheLeverMonkey]

Good tips.

[@andybockex]

Nice job. Love your Chanel. The Deere dozers are really sweet. 👌

For not running one in 20 years. You looked like you were right at home

[@TheLeverMonkey]

I am among the lucky few to be born with the eye for grade and the touch. Helps being a 4th generation operator. My grandfather was a catskinner.

[@bigiron3304]

Damn you look sad at the end

[@TheLeverMonkey]

was still recovering from being sic. and was having a mental moment.

[@derrickpettit3489]

Way to much timelapes

[@TheLeverMonkey]

Would have been 2 hours long if not.

[@nicholasgee1]
