Cat 289D Backfilling Garage Foundation

[@VideosByAl]

Here in Iowa many Home Owners will cap off the footings in front of the house main door for a Tornado Shelter. An access door is cut into the basement wall. Really does not cost too much more and is incredibly safe .

Hey, great videos as usual. I'm looking for some help if you have any tips. The female hose from my combo bucket wont come off our 289d. It's not a pressure issue because I've unscrewed the line to check (no built up pressure, just fluid dribbling out). I think there is either dirt or rust keeping the sleeve from sliding all the way to release. Any tips to getting it off? I tried some pb blaster to no avail. Thanks!

Did you get the hose off? Give us an update. I've been waiting 2 years.

is that fill all you use? we use stone called 8s and pug mix to back fill with

[@DirtNinja]

+tyrod4630 Used that fill for most of it and then topped it with one foot of 3/4" gravel for the slab floor. All compacted

Does that skid steer have foot pedals as well

[@DirtNinja]

+Micj Cajnd No it does not. Its all joystick. It does have a foot throttle on the floor however.

[@micjcajnd8659]

+Dirt Ninja never seen one like that before, back in England the foot pedals control the bucket and arm while the leavers control direction

do u do any mining

This was a good camera angle for what you were doing. Suggestion: Be sure to include some outside shots, too, so we can get a perspective of the surrounding area and distances. Maybe with a drone or even just set the tripod in a couple different places and splice in some footage from each. It makes things a little more interesting in seeing more of the whole picture. Geesh, Tom, was all that motion and activity with or without caffeine that morning? HA U sure had a high-pace groove going.

+Ji Fi-01 (Jif) haha I always work that fast! Thanks for the suggestions on the video! I appreciate it.

Garage back fills are the worst.
