My grandpa was an operator for many years. He lived next door to us. Without fail every time he got off work no matter what time of day it was, he would come to our house and give all of us grandchildren a big hug and a kiss, even if we were sound asleep. I'll never forget and it always warms my heart to think of how my grandpa smelled of diesel exhaust and bubblegum. Lots of love to The operators out there

[@charlieleadbetter6189]

Quick tip that I learned the hard way, those ratchets will dig into the side/top of those batteries and wear holes in them. You can put a cedar shim between them and the battery's to keep it from happening

[@kipcudd7253]

Or he can use an old mud flap to put over the batteries and strap them down.

[@kipcudd7253]

Just put it over the case of the battery not the terminals. We did it on all our tractor batteries when we farmed back in the 60's and 70's. Even used baling wire over the rubber flaps, never had a problem. Poor boys have poor ways but they work to get ya by till work slows down enough to get things in the shop.

Seen a few of your video's . I new to your channel . I my self have spent a life time playing in the dirt lol . Every thing from leaning on a shovel do running a dozer . Pulled a lowboy and Dump trailer . It's been fun the last 48 years playing in the dirt . Been retired a little over a year now . I retired too care for my wife at home . But back in March of 2021 I ended Placing my wife in a Nursing Home Because i could no longer give her the care she needed . Been ruff the last year with Covid . But and way i enjoy watching your Video's ! I watched some of your Lieutenant Dan video's .

[@chrishelms1967]

Gave up the Air seat for a brand spanking new motor....... I definitely agree 👍👍

[@Crewsy]

A Clint’s trick worked. 😉 He started out asking you to “help” him test the rebuilt engine and in the end he didn’t have to come all the way back to NYA not Mr. Millennial’s house to pick it back up. The fact that it was already plumbed up for a ripper was just the Christmas Bonus he wanted too. Now you just need to get the air ride seat out of the “old” 850J to swap it out for the sprung seat in the “new” 850J.

[@cheesegrits196]

To get a sticker off in the future. Get a stripe remover wheel for a drill. Sort of like a big eraser. The best thing is it gets the sticker and the adhesive at the same time. Cleanup any residue with wax and grease remover. If you ever use one of these you will use nothing else in the future.

[@michael_3985]

It’s an absolute pleasure watching you operating the case. Nice job man.👍👍

[@joshdurbin4662]

As for the lights On the low boy, I wires a small battery in a weather proof box on the back of the trailer with accessory power to keep the battery charged and a switch back there to control the lights. That way it has power for about as long you want to unhook the trailer to be unhooked

[@Dean-ry2bh]

Hook that battery to a couple of LED strobes , only, battery will last al day.

[@robertphillips9017]

Or perhaps a stand-alone wireless light bar like the one that Ron Pratt uses for towing.

[@tapertrain1614]

You can get led battery powered amber flashing lights that are magnetic. We use the in the back of hay wagons if we need to use them at night. Amazon has them. Just keep a set on the trailer and use them when you need them.

[@wirenut003]

Mike all you have to do is put a rubber door mat over the top of the batteries so the metal from the bottom of the seat do not come in contact with them. Or even glue the mat to the bottom of the seat base.

[@markpashia7067]

Seen that old hack many times but it truly works!!! Surprised Jerry did not suggest it. Also loosen those straps and put a wood spanner across the tops so the straps do not eat into the corners of the batteries. Looks like a piece of one by two cut to length would work. Cheap insurance against damaging those battery cases.

The C8500, being a former "guv-mint" vehicle, fully understands the concept of "rode hard and put up wet." It looks to me like it does a pretty good job in a "retirement gig" where it gets a lot better care than it got in it's earler life. I watched a couple of C&C videos last weekend, seems like a pretty good outfit, and hope that "new new" dozer does you a good job.

21:22 Someone needs to trim that tree. Or relocate that flag pole. If I see a flag displayed improperly, I make it known. It amazes me how many businesses and official buildings in my city fail in that department. Everyone has gotten to know me pretty well. So much so that the quality of flags and proper display has been 99% on par. Even private citizens have stepped up their game. I have no problem talking to them in person or leaving a note. It also amazes me how many people have no clue how to properly dispose of a flag, especially Old Glory. I'm the unofficial educator and quality control flag and pole inspector for my city. 😎

Little secret to putting on your stickers ..if u squirt on soapy water on the machine then peal the back off the sticker and stick it on while the machine is still wet then squeegee out any wrinkles u can actually move the sticker around before the water dries..It will come out perfect every time..

[@Pushy8366]

DP we are trying out a new case 160E we’re an all Deer fleet and so far the operates are very impressed with it. Our deer salesman went past the jobsite where this machine is working Mike i believe his jaw hit the dirt i told depending on what the case dealer comes up with pricing that there might be 9 Deer excavators sitting on there lot looking for new owners.

Mount battery in frame in back of trailer with a toggle hook it taillights with flasher and a wire to lights will also keep battery charged when lights are on

[@Graveltrucking]

There was a reason why C&C equipment gave you that dozer to try out you fell in love, hook line and sinker you bought it. The C8500 is hard to start because of the Heui system, don't get enough oil pressure the injectors don't want to fire. You really want to try dumping couple bottles of Archoil AR9100 into the engine oil.

Those carvings are tremendous man… To be able to take a chunk of wood and turn it into something that amazing, that is some serious talent right there. Bet that Elvis piece is pretty dang pricey.

I honestly feel Matt has a better and more usable area there than if it was pond, with regular mowing he will have something really good to over look. I’d be tempted to build a small single room cabin just on legs off the ground down in that far tree line, what a great place to escape to with a fire in a wood burner and insulation.

I hate move'n equipment! You gotta have your head on a swivel! Very tiring and it is the most dangerous part of excavating. It doesn't take much to slide a steel tracked machine off the trailer. And, like you said about the cars! The road can be completely deserted, no one around, but start backing or unloading, you'd think you were on the Interstate! Maddening, simply maddening! At 900 hours and a new engine, kind of a hard deal to pass on the 850J. Looking forward to the story of the other 850J! God Bless, Lee
