How to Operate an Excavator (2019): Pre-Op to Shut Down | Heavy Equipment Training

[@williamfreeman4211]

You Don't know how much this really helps people who are willing to learn about excavators, and want to become a good operater and look good for their boss. I got my job watching these videos and said I had experience which I didn't only knew what to do from these videos. Thank you for your time and experience teaching people about heavy equipment operating your skills are very helpful.. and I have bought some of the boots that you recommended..

Nice i must say in really intresting.i love your work guys.talking about investment we always hear about that one guy, was at the right place at the right time and made the right investment and is living the life of luxury now at home. BUT have you ever asked yourself why that guy was not you? There are actionable behind the scenes secrets you don’t know about yet but you have the opportunity to learn them, HERE and NOW! Pay close attention what we will outline in here because it could make your life a lot richer. The truth is you are living in a time that the world has never see before. The Bitcoin era combined with other cryptocurrencies are growing at an electric rates from $10,00 to $60,000 in the past 3 months that have never been seen in the financial markets. Thousands of dollars are being turned into hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands are being turned into millions…. Sometimes overnight! If you are like I was, I just didn’t believe it. Making this kind of money in an unknown industry was just not possible, it was an urban legend! A myth you hear a friend of a friends talking about. When we actually started investing we saw the proof, we made thousands overnight and our appetite didn’t stop there. We wanted more and we got more!

Thank you for learning

Thank u boss

I got quoted 20k for a barn demolition and a couple silos. I decided to make it a learning experience. I do have some training since I was an engineer in the Army but I decided to rent one and do it myself. You right this helped alot because this is the same model I'm renting

[@blasioshitsirishibachi9739]

I knew nothing about excavator but after watching your videos am able to maintain and work with them with ease. I love your clarity in explaining.

[@MrRich-yp7eu]

I've never ran an excavator. Lots of farm tractors and things like that. You're an excellent teacher and speaker. I learned a lot. Obtw... I'm retired and 65 years old. I love your videos.

[@HeavyMetalLearning]

Thank you so much for the comment. Never too old to learn...keep it up!

[@Tombstone416]

you're not too old to go to a heavy equipment school u could still work another 5 -10 years doing this kind of work given your age, not sure how things work in the US there I think u guys have Unions though? I went to one in NZ for 4 months back in 2014 they only had a couple of Doosan 5.5 ton excavators but we got chance to learn various digging/trenching/drainage/root raking tasks etc and they teach u about greasing parts and pre-op, Health & Safety aspects on them, problem is when u get out there into the real world like I did I was getting doors shut in my face one after other had some interviews in Limestone Quarry's etc but never got the job, closest Ive got to operating machinery as a job is driving a Dump Truck, u will most likely be digging slop from trenches with a shovel if u get a chance to get into an actual Earthmoving Company or laying pipes with your hands, gotta work your way up ladder in most companies unless they actually willing to put u on a machine straight away and teach u but m ost wont do that cause the cost of doing it 'Excavators arent' cheap' and the time so if your not cut out for digging with a shovel for some months before getting onto a machine good luck only way u can avoid that is going into a Mine of some sorts and driving trucks before being promoted to a machine operator :/ most Companies are pretty dismissive of these schools too, at least how it works here cause in the real world of operating you gotta be lot faster doing the work than what u would be at some school 'Time is money' after all.

[@shafilamuwonge717]

Hello how are you, I want to be operate, what can i do

[@flying71jd]

I kno the vid is a couple years old, what a refresher, I loaded coal trucks at the mines. Then went on to be a swamper down in the ditch laying gas line. You got to trust the operator for sure. I find the bigger equipment easer to operate. Good Explanation of all things important.

[@JT-qe5ym]

You are a great instructor! Thank you for sharing your passion to teach about the operation of heavy machinery. I am about to retire from being a Police officer for 20+ years and want to be a heavy equipment operator. You give good clear instructions, thank you.

[@NahabweBenjamin]

❤ may the Almighty God bless you abundantly for teaching and training people irrespective of their race, colour and sex. Thank you very much

[@mightytv111]

I'm now in a mining school of heavy equipment machines and I find this video very helpful. You are great.

[@generalmaul4615]

Really appreciate this. I'm currently in a mining course and I really underrated how much coordination it takes to run these machines. I'm binging so many of your videos right now and they're such a great help, thanks a bunch for putting these up!

[@HeavyMetalLearning]

Awesome to hear...videos can help but seat time is what really does it. Good luck on your training!

[@ThePaulv12]

I just bought a secondhand 7.5t excavator for use around my property and I have absolutely 0 and I do mean 0 knowledge on how to operate one. I have so much work to do around here it is difficult to know where to start but I've got no skill level at all. Thank heavens for KZbin LOL. I'm here so I don't get myself into trouble. Very quickly I'm realizing some of the tasks I need to do around here are going to have to wait until my skill level gets beyond say 100 hours. I'm in a forest so raking sticks and twigs into piles will be the first task. This will definitely get my skills up. After that the road needs culverts in some parts, the dam needs repairing - its outflow deepening, a site needs clearing and leveling for a concrete slab, holes need to be augered, areas graded, fencing repaired and they're the easy things. The list is long. Sticks and twigs first.

[@nnoffuture]

Been running equip for 20+ years. Finally got my shot on a Hoeram and now all the foreman positions are open to me. Don’t give up and keep pushing dirt.

This is really great. You should consider doing it again with some local college video kids who will make the lighting better, and the detail focus better. Often, as someone with 0 experience just an interested person, your jargon can be balanced with visuals for an improved experience.

The boss picked up a rock and put it through the window, went in and kicked the window out, then he said "you won't have a problem anymore". 😅

Thanks for the comment!

[@manueldelacruz9337]

Hi! At 13:00, pre-op.... the engine compartment and the engine itself looked dirty, is it not allowed to clean it daily?

[@HeavyMetalLearning]

You absolutely can but not needed at all. The engine compartments are still fairly exposed to the elements so it’s not unusual to get dirty.

These vids are too good! Have any advice on how to always dig straight?

[@HeavyMetalLearning]

Thanks for the comment. Like a long trench, is that what you mean? Best to have it marked first so as you back you can see your straight line. But maybe some other operators have tips on this.

[@neild7971]

Could you put two posts(or rocks sticks etc)spaced apart in front of you and keep them in line with each other as you back up? I’m not a machine operator though! Not sure how I got here

[@terminatorfishstudios]

Our digger isn’t quite as large, it wouldn’t technically say its small tractor but its not quite as big as the one in your video, and the arm is mounted in the front like a small excavator. I’m twelve years old and have self tough myself to drive it and have been doing quarry work. Ive decided to come online and learn some more safety tips and have found that I’m acctually pretty up to date on how to be safe in an excavator already. Love the vid but your mini excavator seems to be better for me as the counter weight isn’t over the tracks when cab turned to the side and the boom is attached at the front.

[@HeavyMetalLearning]

Wow...awesome to hear man! Always great to start young, be open to always learning new things!
