[@jimsmith1946]

Obviously this isn't a video on to productivity exvacate a trench, especially for pipe installation

[@David-ij2hs]

thank you on the great footage

[@DieselandIron]

Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

[@larastruckingllc]

thats a nice pov and i love excavator keep up the great work

[@DieselandIron]

Thanks for watching!

[@dirtzilla500]

in this case i guess he is using his bucket to gauge how deep he has to go to be at required depth ?

[@DieselandIron]

I was just digging to put the machine through its paces. This was in the yard and I was digging to test the machine after it had some work done.

[@thefarm1201]

But yes when I run ho I use the bucket for a depth gage gives you a pretty good idea

[@Tube_0413]

You can use the linkage pins for a guide too

[@Cityhallfreak]

So freaking satisfying

[@DieselandIron]

It's my favorite part about running a hoe! It's just satisfying to dig in the dirt.

[@dirtzilla500]

how many years experience does the operator have ?

[@DieselandIron]

I've been running machines for about 8 years.

[@payasomalillas]

Good job

[@DieselandIron]

Thank you!

[@indigatorveritatis491]

Awesome video. Why did you create a large pile on the left and a smaller one on the right?

[@DieselandIron]

No reason at all. This was me testing out a machine that had recently been in the shop. I was putting it through it's paces to make sure everything was functioning normally. I was putting dirt wherever I felt like.

[@indigatorveritatis491]

@@DieselandIron Cool! Thanks

[@Kaegis]

At times people will put top soil on one side and deeper grade on other side

[@mingwangchung]

Oh thank god.... I was like, what the hell trench is this retard digging? Has he got a giant 🍌 that he needs burried? Is this a child living out his blipi dreams? Is this something who's had a stroke proving to the "young lads" he's still got it?... No it's just a dude fu$&ing around in the back of the yard after some maintenance work! Thank the lord! I saw the comment that you had 8years experience, and I almost had a heart attack! Nice but of kit but Christ mate have a bit of self respect and dig a straight kinda level trench lmao 🤣

[@danielgabriel5539]

Is this an example of how not to dig a trench? I'm confused 🤔

[@DieselandIron]

This was when I worked at the dealership and we needed to run the machine to troubleshoot. Does that clear up your confusion?

[@coltongarber8087]

Were you testing out that excavator?

[@DieselandIron]

Yes. This was when I worked at a dealership and this machine had just been serviced. I was putting it through its paces to make sure everything was functioning as it should. This was literally wasting time and having fun in a machine.

[@coltongarber8087]

That's cool

[@dalskiBo]

This was handy; thank you.

[@DieselandIron]

Thanks for watching!

I wish i could drive one of these

[@DieselandIron]

@@lameguy8958 and dad hasn't let you operate? Have you told him you're interested? Most guys jump at the opportunity to get their son in the seat.

[@MadGaming_TV]

Is it fun to drive one of these? Thinking about driving one of these as a job when I'm old enough

[@DieselandIron]

This is some of the most fun you can have. Nothing beats picking up boulders the size of a truck and flicking them across the job!

[@MadGaming_TV]

@@DieselandIron damn can't wait till I'm older so I can try driving one of these

[@DieselandIron]

@@MadGaming_TV it's a blast! If you like hard work and big machines this is a great industry.

[@MadGaming_TV]

@@DieselandIron Ok thank u for the advise now I'm more likely to choose this job

[@DieselandIron]

@@MadGaming_TV you got it. Let me know if you've got more questions and feel free to pop into the love stream on Sunday nights. There's a lot of operators in the chat that would love to tell you about their experiences.

[@user-maxim_79]

No need to slam the cylinders

[@DieselandIron]

But Theodore, I like the way it sounds...

[@whitebass1969]

That's some easy digging there... Come get you some east Texas clay.. not so fun...

[@DieselandIron]

Or that lovely central Texas limestone
