Tiny but strong - Volvo ECR25D, complete operation fixing water leak!

Compact video of the entire job, at stopping a water leak at a pump station, in the backyard and beach of a grand villa by the sea!
Beautiful scenery and wonderful day, the tiny machine overcomes both hard and heavy challenges during the film, working my way down to the sprung pipeline!
I think its fun to do a job like this, transporting myself, digging, solving challenges and filling back the dirt - trying to make the site look like it did before I started!😋

LMAO, The opening wiggle was classic!! Your cutting edge at work weighs more than this whole rig.👿😎

[@norwegianearthmovers]

Jepp, I aggre that it would be great with a larger machine to open this trench, after experiencing what kind of material the clowns that did the backfilling a long time ago, put back over the pipes...🙉🙈😅 I had another narrow bucket with me, but couldn't get the bucket under these rocks to get a hold of them..🥵🙈 Special task this one, at one of the most expensive houses by the water, not allowing me to use a larger machine due to tracks on the lawn..🤪 Way to hard work for a machine this size, but what doesn't one do to get the job done?!🤭

Not usually the type of video I like to watch but I said if Bernhard is doing it then I'm watching it. I gave it a shot and I was happy. I love tiltorotators by the way, I love to see them being used for cleaning up. Great job, you're a Jack of all trades😊🇯🇲💕

[@norwegianearthmovers]

Wow, so nice to know that you liked even this one then!🙏🤗 Glad it made you happy!☺️ So, if you like tiltrotators, I want to recommend several videos of mine where I operate both Volvo ECR 88, 145 and a EC 180!🙂 They’re all equipped with tiltrotators, and I try to show a proper handling of them, even though I’m a bit rusty when it comes to those propelling buckets..🤭😄 Thank you so much for enjoying this one as well!🙏🙂

[@skytriff]

@@norwegianearthmovers of course I'll watch. Thanks for the recommendation.

[@norwegianearthmovers]

@@skytriff you are welcome!😋 When you see me in a small excavator, you discover where I come from! My carrier in the excavators started in a 3 ton Volvo in 2001, and I operated all sizes and shapes of machines all the way to 2008. Then I got my first 40 ton excavator, I grabbed it with pleasure leaving all that pick and knit projects, and I have never looked back since!😅 At least on regular basis..😂 These smaller machines that I have in my videos, are my brother and fathers, from times that I have helped them and their company.😄 It is fun to do small projects now and then, and especially when I can bring my kids with me!😍 But never on daily basis again..😂

@@norwegianearthmovers you know when watching this one, I said to myself that must be your brother and I was right💃💃

I like how you do a assist turn so not to tear up the grass

[@norwegianearthmovers]

Thank you for watching, and for sharing your thoughts! 🙂

[@johanthedigger1154]

Nicely done! Very clean end result, grass will grow back in no time. I have an EC25 but thinking about upgrading to a ECR25D :D

[@norwegianearthmovers]

Thank you very much! 😊 This is a fun job to do, when both starting and finishing the job myself! This is at the same time something completely different from what I do on daily basis, loading trucks with large excavators!🙃 Nice to do something else!😃 Well, the ECR25D is amazing regarding strength to be this small! Should be a nice upgrade when you buy one!👌😋 Thanks for watching, and for your comment! 😊

That's the hardest that machine has ever worked. With all that rock no wonder the pipe started to leak.

[@norwegianearthmovers]

Hehe, it is fare to say that it was put to the test on this job, yes..🤪😅 I can't believe that anyone can lay rocks at this size right over pipelines, and almost under the foundation for the house shielding the pumps..🙈 We got the job done though,, but what could be done in 2 hours, took 4 hours.. Thanks for watching this one as well!😋

Need the 390 for the opening act!!

@@norwegianearthmovers Det er godt å høre 🙂. Venter i spenning 🙂.

I would not have put any rock bigger than a basketball back into the hole. Though you did a great job at making that little Volvo earn your money.

[@norwegianearthmovers]

Hehe, I wouldn’t either..😅 Was pretty shocked when I found these rocks over the pipeline and so close to that pump station..😝😄 Thanks, just had to find all tricks from my pocket, to get this done..🤪😂

[@digndurt6936]

Why the grading bucket, is that all they had?

[@arzamumma1202]

Who in their right mind would put 2-3 ton rocks on a pipe line ??? Not very smart I would say,. Those rocks almost as heavy as your Volvo!!

[@norwegianearthmovers]

Jepp, that was exactly my thoughts as well...🙈😅 The machine was indeed put to the test on this job, but it still made it🤪🤩 Thanks for watching this video as well!😊
