Hey Baz ive always been taught to keep the batteries for the welding mask away from each other and even if they make contact through the plastic bags it may cause discharge of the batteries.

[@markroberts1858]

Also touching both sides of the battery makes a circuit a drains some power.

[@ypaulbrown]

41:03.....Director Took a Hit to the Lens.....wow, that is dedication.......

[@gamerforever6185]

You should come to Dungannon and get a tour of both mccloskey and powerscreen’s factories

[@danielcollins1145]

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you baz,the director and the lads in the workshop

[@seanhall2901]

Been with same firm 25 years baz big multi million pound outfit and you lucky to get tube of grease never mind gun had to buy my own £250 plus I pay for all cleaning products think because we are classed as self employed all just tax fiddle gone are the days when lads was looked after for the amount of time served think it’s the reason a lot of the lads don’t bother looking after the plant the way I see it spend more time in the machine the I do at home so I want it clean don’t agree with these snow flakes driving in socks no boots in the machine 🙈🙈🙈couldn’t drive there fingers up there arse happy Christmas to you and the director and the 🦊and happy new year 👍👍

[@jones3498]

The 2 machines on the end of the video are called power harrow and the roler on the back is called a packer roller. It conditions the soil and levels it off after ploughing and the backer roller backs the soil back down.

[@Mantaman400]

You’d be quicker sourcing a new roller from Andy Guest who does it day in day out.

[@FIAT-TURBONewHolland]

Merry Christmas to u and director and lads 🎉🎉🎉 that a power harrow lad and packer roller on back they destroy bering and gear boxes all time plenty breakers out there u could get a packer roller second-hand cheaper than make one 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👈👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌 back to grafting now 😉

[@boydovens4180]

Hi , a small tip after removing the teeth off the bucket, try putting on only one tooth at a time from the right hand side . That way you will have more clearance as you swing the hammer , it wont hit the replacement tooth . All the best to yourself and the rest of the guys .

[@ShEdward876]

Yes that's what I do. Can't understand why operators don't change their own teeth.

[@ypaulbrown]

I just realized you are located in my Hero's Home town of Bolton....Fred Dibnah.....may he always be remembered as a Great Man....Amen

Merry Christmas Baz Brillant vidoe thnks for the time it take to do it not easy o they power harrow for top dressing argiculture land or lawns 👍 that digger driver good lad🤣👍🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮gretting from county Kerry irl

[@sandradevlieger8396]

Good day baz i was watching youre episode of the cat 320. And you where talking to the oparator about electric grease guns. In holland a lot of machines are fitid with automatic grease systems. I can tell you they work i have oparated a 40 ton excavator with 12000 hours on the klok and stil the pins and bushes from the factory. You shoud look in to that. Greets from holland

[@RS.8184]

I think grease guns should be allocated to the drivers with numbers, the driver keeps a monthly log of greasing, logging their gun serial number/video iPad submission. If failed pay reduced. If a driver loses their gun, neglects, or fails to keep it in a good working condition, the gun will have to be replaced by driver. If driver performs great they will earn £ towards a tool of their choice for their job. (Jeez iv got a bit carried away😂)

[@lochiehancock9221]

Baz the welding mask might be going flat if it picks up on the lights in and outside the van if it's on Auto or welding mode (LED's and strobes often set them off a lot if they are the right frequencies and brightness) and even pick up on light being reflected off paint and hi vis strips and stainless steel and sparks from grinding and machining. The more sensitive the lens and bigger / more light detecting area and lens the more it happens in my experience some make and brands are worse and some are better. My co worker found some Optrel helmets basicly and frustratingly unusable in field environments with beacons and strobes on equipment and crushers due to this frustration, but we are working out of utes. Sometimes it's easier to keep the mask in the bag they come with or put it in a draw or dark place or leave it in grinding mode if that disables the auto lens, Sometimes the manufacturer has a recommendation for storage, also those small batteries can discharge pretty quick when loose and not stored in the pack before you chuck em in due to static. Looks like a 3M helmet, How do you rate them? and does the PAPR (breathable air) system work for you and the lads? in the workshop and quarries ? Cheers mate

[@oliververrill6859]

Seen to fox group wagon’s in Darlington the other day coming off the a1 two in convoy thought of the welder fabber straight away top man all the best for 2024

[@SlopedOtter]

Would of killed for an electric grease gun back in the army on armoured vehicles. Cant justify one now as stuff I work on get 1-2 pumps a week tops

[@crazyedits50]

All the best to one and all and your families. Watching from the medical assessment unit at royal Preston hospital. May not be home for Christmas so looking forward to your Christmas day special. Thanks for keeping us all entertained. Ps I'm agency op and have my own electric grease gun which is in my car and gets used on whatever piece of plant I'm operating.

[@frankblack1481]

If saving $$ on bushings that are being neglected is the payoff, I’m wondering if the digger operators with the vans are the *last* guys that need the cordless grease guns? Clearly they are the top shelf operators and care for their machines. But I suspect there’s no grease gun on earth that will make lazy, careless operators (the van-less ones) grease more.

[@karldickinson2799]

Happy Christmas too you and family mate and the Director happy Christmas both keep it up

[@7123]

Leaving the welding mask out in the light can cause it to come out of its 'standby' mode and in a state it is ready to go dark at a moments notice. I know its slightly impractical, but store the mask out of the light in a bag or case and you will find the batteries will last much longer. I found this out when someone left my mask (3m like your one) out in the day light for a week and it went flat...

[@jamesward5721]

Vires solar is the only mask we bother buying meow - no batteries, no grief & you can boot them across the workshop. The "Dead" mask pile is huge in our gaff - no vires one has yet to go onto it.

[@keitharmitage3035]

Love your show Bro but coming from Aus. find your lingo intriguing, you seem to leave words out

[@mrhh2010]

That kass trailer was originally tirsan and they’re shit, them bars constantly break due to lack of grease an a few other things, buy a faymonville an never have the problem again

[@AndyCarey-zz4yw]

Hiya Baz the company I work for have you start put automatic greasers units on machines

[@roberthewitt1030]

160 baz not 150. You said 110 for length plus 50 for the thread

[@beckyb943]

the electric grease gun would save the company money in the long run spending less in labor to grease a machine and more time out working.could sign the guns out. with a serial number. lose it and it comes outta yr check.

[@ypaulbrown]

I51:04 as we say in America, 'Old Truck Drivers Never Die, They Just Get a New Peterbilt'

[@W1LLB0]

There are operators who grease their machines and those that don't. Electric grease guns won't change that

[@pattonph1]

Hey we refer to them as operators here in the US not drivers is that pretty much what you call equipment operators drivers

[@tybell8084]

For the mask battery’s the interior lights in the van set the sensitivity off on it when your not using it time to time and drains them aventually been having the same problem with mine till I realised it was getting set off from the van interior lights

[@NeilCorke]

And a very happy Christmas break to you Baz and your brother!

[@garynorman]

What’s the cost of one of those power screeners? I assume hundreds of thousands.

Get some auto greaser's that would save you alot more money in the long run greased every hour there 3k though

Hi Baz I had the same bother with my Speedglas eating the batteries. It eventualy stopped working just outside the warranty. I am now using the Jackson BH3 PAPR all the controls are on the outside so you never need to lift it. I will not be buying another Speedglas.

Aup Baz, on that link arm I’d of put a lock nut on the bolt you welded to the eye and tightened it up to it that’ll stop it pulling in the thread in the end of the tube 👍🏻

Be reet there was 50mm of thread getting hold. The one that came out wasn’t right. Someone had been there before. I get what your saying though 👍

Aye boys, mint seeing big Chris on the video, looking forward to the Christmas struggle 😂, thon Mr Finch is a rare breed of machine man nowadays, many couldn’t spell grease gun let alone use one!! As for battery greasers, that’s some outlay on them, don’t want to see end coin only to have them flung in locker and wrecked, the Peterbuilt is a nice motor, is it a Cummins in it??
