Ingenuity at its finest.

[@1milazzo]

They need to start putting bathrooms and kitchenettes as standard equipment in these mining units. It’s people running them, not robots.

[@nucleardestruction11]

What?

[@nipulkradmsinatagras8293]

Good suggestion.

[@bigredc222]

It would be nice, but who's job would it be to pump it out and maintain it?

[@ЕЛКОРДОБЭСТОРЕРО]

This shovel has. It is located below the operator cab. You defecate in the toilet, and then turn on an electrical resistance which incinerates your manure. Then you can throw the ashes in the air

[@xaqanicafarli8070]

Cab looks like interior of a camper!

[@brian_2040]

Well technically it's as big as a camper. I bet it feels like your swinging a camper when you running it.

[@thepizzadevil7392]

why is the cab on the wrong side? an can you get one in diesel??

[@epistte]

Why would you want a diesel powered rope shovel?

[@JosefPavlousek-w2t]

Momentálně se pokouším postavit tenhle model 7495 ,a byl by to zážitek,vyzkoušet si to jako bagrák,operátor.

[@FuzzyPlutonium]

Where does the electricity come from? A generator?

[@johnabuick]

+Ryan M Same place you get your electricity from mostly unless it is a mine that is in a totally isolated location then it is generated by very large diesel gen sets or even local hydro power.

[@epistte]

A transformer and the grid.

[@mikesecondo2254]

2 d batteries!!!....(lol)

[@epistte]

@@mikesecondo2254 They told me that it was powered by 3 Tesla batteries.

[@nfarnell1]

It comes from rubbing 2 boy scouts together very rapidly

[@1milazzo]

Yeah dummy. Some newer draglines actually have bathrooms in them. They all should. My dad was an operator and so am I.

[@BigCroca]

what

[@Idontwantahandle6669]

It’s okay in 10 years these will all be autonomous.

[@1milazzo]

That will not be the case in 10 years. In the dump trucks yes, not the draglines.

[@neglectfulsausage7689]

calm down meal team 6

[@hommie789]

This is just a Bucyrus 495HF with a different cab and painted yellow with a 7 added to the number. They were complete junk when they were Bucyrus and they are no better now. The crowd cylinder leaks all the time and has more downtime than the rope system they use to have. When are you going to take a page from P&H and go to a rack and pinion system, keep it all electric. The brakes fail more than any shovel I have ever worked on, and the dipper falls out of the air way to often, but it's not a problem according to CAT. The track pins are WAY to small and you change at least 2 a shift. Then there is the center pintel pin that engineers thought was a great idea to make fine thread, which in heavy digging breaks, causing the upper house to no longer be attached to the lower carbody, great design guys. Why did CAT want this company who made junk? Nothingit here is cat designed just out dated shit technology from Bucyrus and repainted by CAT.

[@Potatoscott]

hommie789 the mine I work at, CAT has worked very hard to fix old bucyrus issues with these shovels and they are currently out performing the P&H shovels.

[@epistte]

You would be a great addition to the marketing department.

[@roberttimms3489]

The mine I work at has the last bucyrus 495hr made and it is great no probs with pindle. Pins or anything else. 8years old and a good goer.

[@detroitdiesel-vu3ig]

@@roberttimms3489 it's sad that Bucyrus Erie is no more 😔

[@alco4248]

We have several of the 495HFs and everything he says is true. When they are working, they are faster, but they are rough, and break down a lot.

[@neglectfulsausage7689]

The black narrators accent was hard on the ears.
