Excavator Stuck -Quiring Towing pt.2

[@doubledrive500]

Excellent videos, I have just purchased a 1987 TEREX 82-30 B with a Hyster W12E winch to add to my recovery fleet over here in Scotland Inspired by the Quiring Towing Team , Keep up the good work.

Al quiring is absolutely amazing. Watched him on TV and couldn't help but admire him. He is the guy you want coming to save your ass. He doesn't stop till he succeeds period. Would love to see more of him. And I really enjoy your heavy equipment videos. Thank you 👍

[@skadill]

It was Remembrance day, when this was filmed. Al made a point of stopping everyone,gathering us together,he respectfully said a few words of respect,then had us be silent for a minute.He is a true Gentlemen and man of integrity.

[@forkdriver500]

Loved both parts of this....the 'Niner sounds great in surround sound AND it's a restored jobbie....even better :D A difficult job pulling 38 tons of dead-weight uphill too!!

[@alexxison8212]

Unsung heros, tow-men are. These ole boys did a hell of a job. I.E machine was recovered and no one was hurt in the process. Success day in Canada or United States as far as I'm concerned

[@kevingilbert9695]

That's some impressive work. Got to be tough on the under carriage

[@skadill]

Good luck,thanks for watching!

[@handyandy345]

these guys know what they are doing, good recovery.

[@Rob187ok]

Great job. I've seen a big excavator get stuck while trying to dig out an excavator that was sunk in a mud pool. They both ended up sinking in the hole,,, and I think they're still there if you want go get them.

[@hughvane]

What impresses me most is the role of the other Volvo excavator. The power of hydraulics! 'Scuse my ignorance, but would log rollers beneath the seized tracks have helped, even given the extremely wet and muddy conditions?

[@jamesb9564]

That’s a skull drag if I’ve ever seen one, good job lads

[@reddo84]

i love how you filmed this...

[@BaybrookEnterprises]

Amazing. Would you ever consider a follow video of the machine restored and back to work?

[@billybobs841]

I would have loved seeing that in person skadill

[@skadill]

@dejanira2 Was dragged as far as the vid shows,then put on a truck and taken to the dealer for insurance rebuild

[@skadill]

@courtielover You know absolutely zero(or less),and now the entire world knows it as well.This is all silt from a gravel washing plant.The berm was all dried silt,with water behind it,as well as being the rainy season,it gave way.Your not welcome here anymore.May many read this and you become known for "not knowing"

[@skadill]

@69rd96 It had a severed track final drive

[@TurkiskPep]

Good Job

[@daexpediter]

would placing steel plates the length of the ho's tracks under the tracks assist in allowing the ho to be pulled/slid??

[@guillermoandersen9839]

What happen with hidraulyc motor track when the track is stopped?

[@gyfyasdugcuxjftsdvfb]

This is the best watchin material ever. Thank you for taking the time to make all the videos you do

[@skadill]

Thanks, this video was from way back, poor camera days, glad you enjoyed it.

[@skadill]

@KartAnimal29 This thing was right on its side and sucked in water,its dead!

[@Northern_Farmer]

Was Al there?

[@dejanira2]

How far was it dragged and what happened to it after?

[@Sailorboynumberone]

very fun to watch =)

[@kevingilbert9695]

Those are some stout cables!

[@andybuzz2u]

Cat moving Volvo is what I see, and I have seen it before.

[@doubledrive500]

The Hyster w12 winch on the D9 can pull aroud 60 ton single line , add a snatch block and thats 120 ton pull, The only problem i see traction for the dozers, could have burried the blade of the D8 in and anchored from it. The winch has loads more power than the Backhoe its just trying to engage it correctly on to the ground, Thats why the largest mining shovels are all rope and winch powered.

[@9815478552]

good idea

[@marcusgault9909]

Is there some reason the cable can not be routed to the front of the Dozer, and then use the blade as an anchor?

[@geedubb2005]

I hate it when that happens!

[@briand01]

Does Al Still do this type of work. I've seen him on Highway Through Hell alot so I'm wonderingif he still has time to do jobs such as this?

[@skadill]

+briand01 He'll pull anything out of anywhere,anytime still

[@briand01]

Cool ! I found these videos before HIghway to hell started. haven't seen any reallly recent ones though Thanks Skadill

[@69rd96]

Not to critize one's actions, but why not just pop the sun gears out of the planetary drives on the hoe, much less brute force, then just block the tracks as you go, I've done it before on a stuck 330BL log loader.

[@Bearcats737]

no shit something snapped when you here a loud bang. the dozer lurches, and you see sparks fly! And what the hell happened to it. I think it would be easier to just get the service truck in there and pull that out rather than that.

AL isn't the student of recovery he's the professor and the few times I've had the privilege of working a job with him I know to watch and learn......too many Monday morning quarterbacks on here

[@KartAnimal29]

why didn;t you guys just fire the machine up after you got it unstuck ?

[@Gasteraner]

2:56 - really dangerous if someone is in the way of a cable ...

[@Northern_Farmer]

if it was like my deere you could have taken the sproket bolts out and it the tracks would have freewheeled

[@heavywreckoning7864]

You are right. Unbolt the finals and pull out the gears. Did it with a burned one and it rolled quite easily

[@Gage8990]

They like there volvo's

[@raydonica6723]

Wow!!!!!!!

[@seancoates7012]

this in alberta?

[@skadill]

Sean Coates BC lower mainland

[@Graveltrucking]

Eye opener for somebody lol.

[@skadill]

Excavator track drives ALWAYS have the brakes applied.They hydraulicly release when there is oil pressure applied by engaging travel functions.this machine was dead,these were professionals doing the recovery.Every option was thought out.

[@JayCriz]

You should have just used the other two backhoe's to get the dead one out, it would have been alot faster and easier. To prove it, just watch the part when the one Hoe pulls the dead one (I know that u are using a snatch block).The backhoe has way more pull power than the winch on the cats. And the Hoe would be able to lift aswell as pull.

[@skadill]

Uh,no that doesnt work.

[@UPTHElRS]

tonka tonka take care

[@KCUnionStationTrains]

What a waste of equipment!!

[@TheLarrytwo]

oh ya.... not haveing a good day.

[@ronaaserude8225]

nasty weather for a recovery of that nature. they did a great job of skidding that excavator out of there!

[@sassytina65]

dum fux need to engage the travel pedals even though the engine isnt running it will let the tracks roll

[@NZDIRT]

@courtielover hahaha what a joke. I'm 16 as well and operate, (probably better then you) but you obviously do not have a clue.
