I gotta say I love seeing these old machines being recovered and being given a chance to come back to life But I do gotta say PLEASE be careful when using chains as they can snap and really hurt someone There was a farmer who lived about 20 minutes from where I am who was pulling a tree out of his field with a tractor and a chain. About 1/2 way though the job the chain broke and whiplashed straight through his cab and decapitated him instantly His family didn’t find him till the late afternoon when they came to the field and saw the tractor running at idle with both the back and front windscreens destroyed please be very careful when using high tension especially with chains as i would hate to see anyone especially you get hurt or let alone killed Keep up the great content Stay safe

I actually have a story to tell here not about chains snapping and killing but sometimes else, my grandpa worked at a sand pit, they dredge and refine the sand there, now to get the sand leaving the plant they would use trains and one day there was an accident with one, a guy got impaled by the cupling mount while hooking the shunter engine up to some cars the dude had it go right through him but somehow he was alive, ambulance was called and they said this "if we remove you from this you will die" so he calls his wife who comes to the plant to say goodbye and the they disconnect the train and the car and he was dead instantly.

@@awolgamming7793 I'm surprised they didn't cut the coupling mount off the train, then bring him to the hospital where surgeons could cauterize and close the injuries before removing it. I mean chances are he still would have died, as it almost certainly would have become infected after being struck by dirty metal and having it stuck in him for a long time. But people have survived through similar injuries, so long as they can get them to the hospital where surgeons can properly close the cut veins and arteries. Then again, this was back in your grandpa's day, so techniques would be even worse off compared to today. They also might not have been able to get something to the area quick enough to cut him out.

You sound like an Iowa guy, same here born in IC.👍 back quite a few years ago I worked, (in denver) with a guy who had walked off the deck into the elevator pit of the building. I don't remember all of the details but he ended up falling on to a vertical piece of rebar that was embedded in a slab. They had to lift him up and cut off the rebar to take him to the hospital for surgery. He obviously made it as we worked with him but damn what a thing to go thru.... By the way, I was taught to throw a towel or moving blanket over a chain or cable so if it snaps the line drops to the ground.

Dave: I was in the heavy duty towing business for several years and actually had the pleasure to operate the first Holmes 1801 west of the Mississippi. It was a beast. As division manager I was tasked with numerous recoveries. I wanted to pass along one technique which I used several times . I specialized in cement mixer recovery, as you know a loaded STUCK mixer can be quite difficult to recover. Here it is: if access is from either end, try to run your main winch line under the stuck vehicle if possible to the front of the vehicle , secure it around the frame if possible in front of steer axel. When you apply winching not only do you apply a pulling force, but a lifting one as well. That’s it…. it worked for me, but might not be applicable to all situations….. Great Job, I love watching your content…Thanks

Scraper was loaded with the front axle over the trailer tandems, and it has to be close to that on the front axle of the scraper if not over. That thing looks HEAVY!!!

Both were dead stick and he loaded these by himself using only the recovery winches on the trailer and tractor. Didn't take all that long either. Wish I had seen how that was done. My part was replacing the engines in both. They did have air in the tires though, thats gotta help!

You not only will get a miracle, but will feel the joy of a whole corporation up there to help you. I for one think God is allowing bad things to happen right now because he wants His children to call on HIM and not the “beast” system, or to try to fix things alone. Hope this doesn’t frustrate you more! I agree all your troubles are resolved! ❤️🙏🏼👏🏻

I've hauled 100's of pieces of equipment (some running, some destined to the scrap yard) and my only suggestion would be to load those the other way. Always keep the crazy end close to the unload point. (The pivoting point) Less fighting it during load and unloading. Also keeping the motorized end down in the well cuts your overall height. Also as long as the pumps (Hydraulic) are good, and the tranny still works, toss another motor in it and sell it!

My Dad once bought a scraper that looked very similar. Caterpillar had to print a manual from their archives. It cost $90 in the 90s. It was cable driven, and the cables were an inch thick plus. I was told at the time that it was only legal in three states, because of the cables. (Literally, the grandfather of "Oh, snap!). Eventually, they converted it to hydraulics. In the early Aughts, he had it scrapped.

I wonder if you could have used one of the diggers as an external hydraulic power pack and plumbed the lines for the scrapers lift cylinders straight into it that to lift it. Couple of blocks around the shaft (if it's an extending cylinder) or some chains to block it retracted and you've got a much easier to handle machine. That Case digger already has an aux circuit to the boom arm it seems. Edit to add a thought I had immediately after: If the cylinders on the scraper still hold oil well enough you could probably even get away with just having some manual valves in the lines you hook up to them and just close all valves to block the cylinders (though that's gambling on all the old and tired seals holding)

I always like it when you see something huge like that scraper with a sign that says oversize load. You know if you can’t recognize it you probably can’t read the sign either. Great job and from what you showed it was a very safe job.

Back in the 80's I was taking a welding class at the local community collage getting my certifications. During that time one of the big earth moving contractors donated two beat up bottom scraper buckets to the college so we use the plate steel for welding practice. So for two days we went out as a class on location with cutting torches in hand and cut the buckets up into pieces and hauled it all back to the college. It was double wall 1/2" plate steel. That bottom scrapper there looks like it was built back in the 60's. The operator doesn't even have a cab.

What massive piece of machinery! I can't believe you could actually drive with it on there let alone fit on there. I'd say you were the expert that gave the hand signals to put it exactly where it needed to be! They must've been sad to see it go. They had their pictures taken with it for the last time, lol... Peace and Love always...

Hunter needs a pair of steel toed sandals for work. Can’t laugh at Hunter for wearing socks with the sandals since I used to do that when I was younger. Anyways, great video guys. That was the best team work with heavy equipment I’ve even seen! That was amazing that the scrapper fit. Look forward to the update on what you decided to do with scrapper. Have a great week guys. 😎

Have seen various videos that load non-running scrappers, and knowing box drops scrapes when engine not running have wondered why don't load onto trailer back end first?? the blade would then just drag over ground or trailer end rather then digging in, just curious, or is there a reason has to go on front end first ?

I ran on just like it years ago. The company that I worked for even had a 631A that was in perfect shape and used everyday. They are all cable actuated. Only the steering is hydraulic. These things are a blast to run. Little bit of rain on a good smooth hard packed fill and you drift one of these like a race car. Believe it not they are pretty easy to turn over. Ask me how I know.

8:55 how comes you dont have a 24v aux hydraulic pump - just disconnect both sides of the hydraulic cylinder, screw a hose with ball valve on the lift side of the cylinder, pump it full of oil, shut the ball valve, disconnect the hydraulic unit and drag it out did that with a dozer and a grader and a tractor with a front loader but no installed hydraulic pump worked really good each time, if you plunge a suction hose for the pump into the hydraulic tank of the maschine that needs moveing you dont need to waste any oil , also works with diesel and motor oil but id not reccomend it if you have something better like used or new hydraulic oil

You might try putting some air in those drive tires on the scraper! I hope you don't have to go over a scale with that because those trailer axels are WAY overloaded
