Very nice video, I can watch this all day. It’s nice to see a dozer pulling a pan, that’s what we called them where I lived growing up. I remember my dad pulling one that was operated by cables with a d6 sized dozer that had a cable operated blade. It’s been so long I’m not even sure cat was called a D6 back then but it was the equivalent of a D6 now.

Don't see these scrapers very often, as a child I would love to ride in these diggers, long before health and safety started, j Jones excavation was moving an old slang tip,in Merthyr Tydfil in s Wales,it was still burning hot 50 yrs after being dumped from then old Ivor steel works in Dowlais. I would spend hours after school just watching the machines working, I'm 52 now and still have the same interests .

Thank you for the video, very tidy equipment, Motorways plant hire had a lot of D8 and boxes years ago. Dad owned and run a Komatsu D155A and cat box when he was with us.😎👍🇬🇧.

Playing with clay is a funny thing either it is to wet or hard as a rock and sometimes nice to work with

Nice video. That is some sloppy digging, but fun to watch nevertheless. Heavy, wet clay, tough to load, haul, and dump. That D6T LGP dozer is quite busy assisting the loading operation, pushing loaded units uphill, and helping out with dumping.

The guy in our area who does road construction still uses the old 7e's on the scraper's and the push cat's are 17A's. Winter comes they all their dozer's and canopies on and clear bush or snow from blocked roads. Nice video thank you.

How many inches of soil can these things scrape off in one pass? In other words how deep can you set them?

Ripping and push catting with a wide pad is awful expensive. Those tracks ain't cheap I've never seen one used for that before. Cool video tho I like it.

Cat n can. I used to have 2 cable rigs. Guy came by bought them converted to Hyd. Used to drive tractor up on lowboy and tow scraper. Once towed one 110 miles at 50 mph made sure had good tires. That was 23 years ago. Wouldn't do it now.

Gotta keep the carrier rollers clean it's just normal maintenance part of being an operator is keeping tracks clean. I've seen allot of guys fired for not doing it.

Wade Wilson This company works all year round in the UK. Using rubber wheeled machines when the ground is wet or soft at all would never work. You can also see they are digging a reservoir. You wouldn’t have a hope in hell of pulling two full pans out of the steep exit ramp with a rubber wheeled or tracked tractor. This set up suits this company perfectly.

@AwesomeEarthmovers5 жыл бұрын
Wade Wilson So your tractors and pans will be useless when it’s time to move on to purely dozer work. The D8K’s can have their blades put back on and switch to dozer work when necessary. If Americans know how to get things done then why did they need a German rocket engineer to get them to the Moon and British research to build the A-bomb?

The ground is to wet for that sort of gear. Your system is good for dry ground long haul work .In this situation it is damp to wet short haul.
