Up Close With Dozer Scrapers

Some footage I took with my GoPro Hero 7 of AJ Morris Ltd excavating a 90,000 cubic meter agricultural reservoir using 1981 Cat D8K's coupled with 19m3 Rome scraper pans.

Man that’s unreal loading a scraper that size going uphill. Those CAT’s are getting it done and making it look easy. Very nice video.

[@ConstructionMachinesChannel]

Absolute top notch video. Super camera angles & editing. You're getting very professional. Great machine set up also. 👍

[@rcbauma]

Very good video in excellent quality 😍Thank you for your work 👍🏻

[@khdcreative6543]

So beautiful

[@waynecompton7612]

Good Afternoon! Thank you for the video, you can’t beat this good working kit. Take care 👍😎🇬🇧.

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

Wayne Compton Thanks for watching!

[@franciscomartinez4654]

There's something you dont see everyday cool to see the difference in using other types of heavy equipment

wow just takes me back to going to work on a weekend with my dad rest in peace mate

Great Video, keep them coming. 👍👍👍

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

onyourbikeuoldfart Thanks for watching, there’s still some very nice videos to come over the next few weeks.

[@luisquezada9469]

very good capture video and the machines

[@gliderider7077]

Your videos are top notch!

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

Gliderider thank you!

[@scruffy6151]

Nice video work well done

[@larrythornton6336]

Good vid but can someone inform the scraper operator that when bowl is full....it's time to go...

[@duanedobson8250]

getting some good loads. Many yrs back on 8h and towing 463 scoop take bit to load but could take some humongous loads.push loaded d6d or d85 komatsu

[@saulocustodio6459]

Parabéns 👍 Caterpillar é top demais sempre foi uma excelente máquina

[@NetzKanal]

Great video 😎

[@kevinlewis7882]

Great video

[@j23mikdunk39]

Amaculate results overall visual of what construction is about too unfold ,tis way forward, infrastructures EARTHMOVERS keep on moving into the FUTURE ....NZ Hearty Ole...

[@jeanmi974caterpillar3]

superbe video,bonne journée a toute l 'équipe..

[@robertwilliams5396]

Great video as always but I have a question and it is this: once the bowl is full on the scraper and it's overflowing because it can't hold any more material why aren't they picking the bowl up and and getting out of the cut and going and dumping the load. They're wasting an extra minute per round at least and the material that they're shoving into the scraper is running out just as fast plus the extra wear and tear on the scraper cutting edges & the dozers undercarriage.

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

Robert Williams Even though the material is flowing off the sides you can still see it heaping up higher in the scraper until the dozer stops assisting.

[@kylecorfman5632]

Jesus i can only imagibe how rough that is....damn

[@My-Opinion-Doesnt-Matter]

Is there a reason why they're scraping uphill and not downhill?

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

My Opinion Doesn't Matter They are only doing that to get the corner of the excavation. Most of it is done on the level or downhill.

[@ChateauVerba]

ROME good decision ... it was also time.

[@viseshseernam39]

no blade on the dozer scraper it help maintain the vehicles stable when it moving a slope or hill

[@alphonsotate2982]

Your right the weight of the blade will help the dozer pull better

[@richardcowdrey5124]

removal of blade reduces the wear on the idlers

[@rossgray3070]

It does help it pull better because of the extra weight but it makes it much harder to turn and creates heaps more dust from the fan air going out the front. Done many years on dozer and scraper and always took the blade off.

[@urbanjeeper9939]

What is the project you guys are working on ?

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

Jim Scott it’s a 90,000m3 excavation for an agricultural reservoir.

[@tranceguy1740]

Why are they cutting up hill.. I no sometimes conditions calls for it but, not see any here

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

Trance Guy because they are just doing it to cut out the small corner piece and it means they are heading in the right direction for where they are coming from and where they are dumping the material. 99 percent is not done like this. I took the video because it shows a bit more action that there normally would be.

what's theresult of this work i coudn't fined

[@matteokanina8591]

Quello l'avevo me piace tanto lo fatto per 15 anni lavoravo dalle 5 di.matina fino alle 10 di sera facevo le dige lagi artificiali

[@mikesullivan696]

seems like an awfully long haul for this combo. Rubber tired scrapers for this distance.

[@ilovecops5499]

I like these vidoes bu polease think o fth echildren. Mankind wwas not meant to dabble with power take offs and hydsraulic and digital fuel injecttion systremsn and GPS for perfect gradin and such. . Please conmsider that for you next video. Thank you!

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

i Love Cops Maybe I should close down my channel for the sake of the Children of the World?

[@ilovecops5499]

No so mine Frend. Just be aware these machines wer enot meant for mankind. They have too much poweer and the forces of nature MUST BE CONTRO>LLED AT ALL COSTS! thnakse YIOUES!

[@benryan7546]

How slow

[@josemonteiro8942]

Why don't you accept me in group in facebook

[@jasonkoehn1074]

Should be cutting down hill

[@terrywilder9]

Then you would only have to carry it back up!

[@justintyme2086]

So inefficient!! Wth

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

justin caughey why’s it inefficient? I suppose you’re going to tell me they should be using 657 scrapers and D11’s?

[@justintyme2086]

@@AwesomeEarthmovers no, just that fact you're running 2 dozers for 1 load, plus how slow it makes its rounds. I couldn't see this setup getting more than 5 loads an hour unless the fill is super close and you're spinning dirt. I'm more of a 627 guy. I hat 57s

[@adampapke1894]

@@AwesomeEarthmovers Just seems like alot of track wear and tear on machine instead of tires on a dirtpan. Here in the South we use farm tractors with pans. Still a great video

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

justin caughey it’s a short cycle, I think I timed them at 5 or 6 minutes. It’s the U.K and weather and ground conditions can be challenging so these are the best all round machines for the job. The dozers can also put their blades on and perform other tasks when not being used as scrapers. This set up is actually very efficient for what they do.

[@AwesomeEarthmovers]

Adam Papke The weather here is unpredictable and ground conditions not so good. These tracked machines can work when wheeled scrapers can’t. You’re seeing rare good ground and weather conditions in this video. I’ve another video that shows a wet job they worked on.
