This gentleman is a “maestro”.., on those controls…. Awesome work. Great video. Thank you sir.

[@lovejcdc]

My grandpa used to be a pro with the old tree style blade. Great video

[@DieselandIron]

Thanks for watching!

Interesting video I love watching an experienced operator in a blade. They are amazing machines. I'm running a 160m3 tomorrow it's crazy you came out with this when you did. That 160 has all joystick controls I prefer levers though. At least for me, there are a lot fewer accidental movements plus you look so much cooler :) but I don't have much experience in a blade. I kinda got tossed in it for tomorrow. I'm balancing gravel on a rebuilt road and this is my first experience with grading a road I've only used a blade in dirt applications so we'll see how it goes.

[@DieselandIron]

Sorry for taking a bit to respond! How did it go? Almost everyone I talk to prefers the piano keys over the joysticks in a grader.

I miss running a blade. Was one of my options when I was starting out. Did some finish work for FCI back in the late '90s for bridgework. Was running a 140H pretty new back then.

[@DieselandIron]

The blade is one of the few machines I never got any real seat time in. I got a half hour here and there to play around but I was never given any real seat time to learn the machine. I still want to....

[@godfamilycountry4211]

Pretty wild perspective from this camera angle. Must be his first day on the machine! Lol impressive to say the least. Thx

[@DieselandIron]

It does give you a much better idea of what's going on in front of the moldboard. I think this guy said he's been doing county roads for 20 years.

[@gq-cw6xi]

​​@@DieselandIron maybe driving on them , guys hands are on the steering wheel more than the controls , slow down and keep your hands off the steering wheel.

[@DieselandIron]

@@gq-cw6xi Thank you for the armchair operator response.

[@ambitiousdirtwork]

Your the 🐐😂 been waiting on some motor grader footage

[@DieselandIron]

They are hard to come by! Most of the time the blade is too busy for me to flag down and stick a camera on. I've been trying for you guys!

[@BROSKOIU1]

WOWW that's hardcore PRO!

[@DieselandIron]

The guy running this was a seasoned vet!

[@Filzkiiz]

YesSiRr!! This is pretty Awesome stuff Mate!!

[@DieselandIron]

Thanks Phil!

[@nikolaitownsend1239]

It’s an operators style video game with hands on experience😉😂

[@DieselandIron]

Exactly! 😆

[@buildcastles]

One of the best i've seen

[@Broke_operator]

That I’ve heard is a beast to operate. I’m green 😂

[@DieselandIron]

These are some of the hardest machines in the industry to run. It takes years of experience to master these machines.

[@StefanBacon]

It looks like someone knows how to play the piano. I'll be looking forward to that tutorial ;)

[@DieselandIron]

I'm trying to find someone that is willing to give a tutorial. I never got any substantial seat time in a blade to learn it well enough to teach.

[@RealityisaComedy]

I’m going to be replacing an egress window well for a customer soon. Have you done any egress windows? Want to make a video on replacing a broken window well? Location is close by give me a shout my brother! Have a great evening keep up the awesome work!

[@DieselandIron]

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner, I've been swamped! Let me know when the job is and I'll see if I'm free to swing out.

[@RealityisaComedy]

@@DieselandIron Possibly this Friday, but I have to still go and get the window well and see if the timing works out. I hope you're doing well my brother!!

[@4x4RescueThunderBay]

As a guy about to get his first chance in a grader, I would like to know if this is the first pass, how many passes expected, and what each pass's objective is.

[@DieselandIron]

How is it going in the grader? Sorry it's been a month, we've had a pretty crazy summer!

[@ConstructionMachineryChannel]

How long has he been operating a grader? Sure looks like he knows what he's doing.

[@DieselandIron]

Sorry for taking so long to get back with you Allen! We lost power in those storms that rolled through and I'm just now getting caught up. I think he said he's been at it for about 20 years.

[@ColtonLloyd]

Do you prefer Deere Or kitty cat motorgraders?

[@DieselandIron]

I don't have a preference. I never really got a decent amount of seat time in a blade while I was operating.
