We use to take Scrapers off of hills so steep that dirt would come over top of the apron and hit the back of the cab. Good video. I believe they were 651 single engine.
@vantagetes12 жыл бұрын
The pile IS the fill area. The rock trucks started it and squared it out, but then another site had a couple 657s available so I put them to work. I had never intended on using scrapers hence the pile being built the way it was but as you see the twins made short work of turning it into a scraper pile.

The time it took me to knock the pile down (6 minutes) wouldn't be worth having the dozer walk over to do it. The scrapers couldn't work until the pile was fixed for them so it was quicker to use them.
@dustywelchcraneman66144 жыл бұрын
And not only that,,, it's set up better for them if they build it. Sometimes it's best if the machine your using does the prep work. A dozer can work a bench for a loader all day long and the loader will still need to smooth up for his task.

Those 3412 in front and 3408 in the back together kicked out around 1000 hp that was like a V8 gas motor on steroids! I've been around scrapers for years! These was first ones I ever seen could haul a full load heaped and shift up while going up hill! Last ones I ran where G series and they where just plain doggy! Lucky to pick up dirt down hill!

As a mechanic i hate 657e and 657k scrapers. They are piles of junk that break down all the time. The aftertreatment and electronics on the 657k drive me insane. I hate the v12 and the v8 on the 657e cause they are a pain in the ass to work on and pull. Parts and schematics are a nightmare. I do love the 657g. Easiest scraper to work on, a blend of old school and modern technology, and are more dependable. Fuck j-pipe and hoses on all 657 scrapers

Originally this stockpile was being built with trucks, so you build it shaped like a box so the trucks can dump off the edge. Plans changed and we started moving material with scrapers which have to dump going up over the pile rather than being able to back in and dump. This forced us to round off the pile making it into an inverted U shape.

Scrapers aren't indestructible but close to it. It's the operators that have a limited life span! 1. Ya gotta watch hitting the right corner of the front power unit as it will rupture the fuel tank. 2. When turning hard R or L, stay off the rear throttle. 3. As long as you're going straight, it helps if you use the differential interlock. Tires are expensive! 4. What these guys are doing isn't all that dangerous. 5. When traveling, keep the can low and your hand on the hoist lever. FYI
