A New Toy! Amy Tests out the Kioti Track Loader TL750

[@dougtravins9624]

Awesome job Amy. Once you're past the learning curve you will be fine. Love your enthusiasm. Be safe.

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thank you! Will do!

[@dbhoward56]

When you're moving with a load, you want to lower the load as much as possible, ideally to just above the ground, this will lower the center of gravity, and help with the tipping. Moving with the load 2 feet above ground is raising the center of gravity and that coupled with the uneven terrain is causing the tipping effect.

[@fabonline9389]

Exactly what I was going to say. I would add that backing up an incline with a full bucket compounds the problem. Also, smooth out the path.

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thanks for the tips!

[@ronkolacek9645]

Good job Amy.......time is experience.........remember haste makes waste.......you have nothing but time.....

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thanks so much!

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

... HA-HA !! Don't wake the supervisor !! .. .. Can't let Bryan have ALL the fun ... Operator Amy ....

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Supervisor Viggo- calling all the shots!

[@espnmk]

Amy that looked like a lot of fun till Vigo interrupted the process, i don't blame him he wants to ride in the cab. Thanks for Sharing...

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thanks for watching!

[@lorallamb2673]

Keep on Rocking girl!!!

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thanks!!

[@DonDegidio]

Hi Amy, Not bad for a first timer. What would help that tippy feeling is to scrap the dirt humps away from in front of the grizzly.

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Yes, it was nerve wracking getting used to the tipping feeling.

[@allthings2allmen]

Nice! I just stopped into see another practical review of the Kioti skid-steer. I've been familiar with the tractors for some time. I don't own one yet, but now I might have to get one of these, or both. BTW> It looks like your 'Vigo' is too easy going! Cracked me up that he was sleeping on the pile earlier in the video. Maybe you need an oogah horn?

[@allthings2allmen]

Ok so I caught myself saying skid-steer & you are showing the track loader...technicality...I realize they have some capacity differences, but overall they are the same basic thing...thanks for a great vid & Merry Christmas!

[@dennislesh2374]

Good luck with the new machine.

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thanks 👍

[@WayneT51]

G'day you two, greetings from down under. Just a thought, perhaps some of that rock at the bottom of the back fill to help with drainage?

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Yeah I think it will be a mix of small rock and dirt.

[@antoniocarvalho6160]

THE LADY THIS APPROVED, THE CAO DEMITED! HUGS.😁

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thanks!!

[@rockytopwrangler2069]

.. WHAT ?? The greenhouse foundation got knocked over .... BRYAN !!!!!

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

😂😂😂

[@AD-hr4is]

You'll never want to give it back to them. That be great for snow removal and other task. Warm and toasty in the winter .

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Very true! Gosh....now you got me thinking!

[@rjkdev]

Will your snow plow fit on the front of the skid steer? So you don't have to plow backwards?

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

The skid steer is just on loan for the week, but the plow fits on our side by side just fine!

[@rjkdev]

@ColoradoMountainLiving Sorry, I originally meant the snow blower. :-) Hope you have fun with it while you have it!

[@danmooney7192]

Is the Greenhouse foundation level? it looks like its tilted! or is that just the camera angle?

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Yeah you know the entire hillside is a big slope, so to get the camera level, it's tilted .

[@JohnGuest45]

I`m getting nervous for you guys as you are getting close to the tubing installation, aka the point of no return.

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Yes, we are getting nervous about the weather too.

[@kirbydotson7266]

Man that is a rough operator: lower the RPM's to 1800 or so when all the power isn't needed and try to ease into the valve action.

[@919Drones]

Smooth the ground around the sifter. Your driving over a hump.

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

Thanks for the tips. Literally my first 10 minutes on the machine. (and it's all on camera LOL)

[@johnkirby6547]

Looked like fun Amy, till vigo decided to take a break in the freshly sifted dirt. Put him away while running the equipment so nothing bad happens.. you can also put some rock down to smooth out the path you are using, looks very uneven

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

haha he's always on the look out from up above! thanks for the tips!

[@solomr287]

I never understand why people have pets out when running heavy machinery. One you tuber ran over a puppy because they didn’t know it was behind a tire.

[@zakksrage]

“They” should have looked. Vigo isn’t a puppy. Amy and Brian are intelligent and so is the dog.

[@jessefenton3953]

I never understand why people make stupid comments.

[@ColoradoMountainLiving]

what a terrible tragedy
