Replacing lower glass on a Deere 50g
Amazing machinery, and that poor lake looks like a manicured lawn almost my dumbass would’ve been out there walking on it😵💫🤣🫡
i run cat trackloaders , 2k, 10k, 19k, 19k hours on my loaders and i dont have any warranties🤣 🤣 i don't have problems with mechanic because its me
Never knew that existed
Is there a continuous flow button on the 50g. Or do you have to hold the rocker switch the whole time?
They make a continuous flow switch that you can retro fit but I wouldn’t. I’ve tried to keep it flowing while I track and swing around and it’s just not enough flow. I just let off, move a little and get back in it.
🐶🏠👍
Thanks for watching
Awesome video ❤❤❤
Thanks for watching
Im looking for someone in the st louis area to pay for weedo work. Anyone out there???
I’m not sure. You may be able to contact Weedoo directly and see if they have anyone in that area. They should have on record to where they have sold these machines
Do you mind me asking how much the machine costs? I haven’t received an email back from the company
Around $90k if I remember correctly
What year is your Weedoo?
2023
Just picked mine up yesterday
Hope my skegs last longer than yours did😅
That’s pretty cool looking contraption you got there what’s it called if I may ask 🤷♂️👏👏
It’s called a Weedoo. Check out Weedoogreenboats.com for more info. I’m not affiliated with them but they’re very helpful.
why the video with stupid music
Thanks for watching
Did you buy starter from John Deere or get Bosch replacement or what? JW. Thanks
I bought it from John Deere. I’m one of those OEM replacement guys 😅
Do you deal with DNR in Alabama? Wondering if these would work in Wisconsin
No. Not where I’m at
Are you happy with the weedoo? Is it holding up?
I’m happy with it. I’m hard on stuff so there has been some things I’ve had to fix and replace but overall, it’s done well
I thought the squeaky wheel got the grease LOL!!
That’s just hear say 😂
I can hear that squeak a mile away.😅
Google TRUXOR 😂
I found out about truxor literally 3 days after this was delivered 🤦🏼♂️ I’d love to have one over this
Where can I get the plans !!!??

This one may be for sale soon.
Shame...cattail roots are quite edible. 😋
Not sure if I would eat anything from this water 😅😂

Do you have a plate that protects your oil pan and wiring
There is a big opening that has 4 bolt holes taped.
I’m not sure where you’re talking about
Nice controller
Thanks
That’s fancy
Like Applebees
The fish ☹️
I ran heavy equipment for 40 years all kinds and I did many different jobs for many different companies so I learned many different ways many different skills I was a final grade operator specializing in swivel bucket hose so I really enjoyed the compliments and finish products and I have done my fair share of enlarging ponds, and mucking ponds but to see you guys doing that makes me miss pulling levers 😢but watching you made me realize that I miss the smell 😜😎
Thanks for watching
I know I’m not running the machine and I like the way you are wiggling your bucket to get more however, you’re still coming up with such a little bit. I don’t understand why you can’t snowcone that bucket weather you back some and then run into it to get it or if you can just give it more power, going forward doing what you’re doing and maybe have your teeth at the top like to rake it and then once you push it back some then roll your bucket down and then go into it and try to get that extra big snowcone bucket because it looks like you’re doing a lot of work For a little bit of GGAga A&E baby game GAIN ?
It was really shallow right there. Maybe 10 inches deep. Wiggling the bucket like that, I was actually pulling myself forward to get more. And also trying to break the grass roots loose. It’s a whole different way of operating than you think with it floating.
If when you were turning, you roll your clamps down and pull your arm up into the machine. It will handle that weight and you won’t rock the machine. If not, put a seatbelt on because one day it’s going to throw you out of the front of that machine, I can guarantee you that.! Every machine to get the maximum power, you must have your arms as close to the machine as you can in first super max your power is in the curling of the bucket that’s why if you have a strap on the back of your bucket and you roll it out and then roll your bucket up. You can get that extra umph
Thanks for the info
I see everyone putting it down but there’s ponds Lakes and all kinds of trash and debris and water everywhere. Every piece of heavy equipment made has a smaller version just because it’s not a 963 cat loader or D10 bulldozer or 400 L excavator doesn’t mean it can’t do, some duties use it for what it was meant for and help clean up our waterways. I think it’s a brilliant idea. I would’ve liked to seen how the back worked. I guarantee you one thing you’d have to be a good operator and a smart one because you could sync that son of a bitch real quick, especially with the back! For the next video have the operator as he’s coming in put his bucket on the slope and push the trash and debris off of the slope and up top as he’s coming in as well turn in his bucket as he goes to empty it right at the top anyone can move a machineit takes a real operator to get the best out of it😜😎
I've got more videos on my channel showing the full length process. Take a look and tell me what you think. Thanks for watching.
I feel like that shits gonna get hard long before you will finish it.
I mixed it a little wet for that reason. It’s definitely not made for big pours 😂
Looks fun too ride though haha
It is!
Teaspoon bucket haha!
It has its flaws lol
Couldn't that all be vacuumed out? 🤔
Probably could have if I had a vacuum for that
Crap design
Thanks for watching
Can you share a link to the Attachment you have?
Fecon FMX36
Great machine, but you need a couple of small barges to stack all that aquatic material on to speed up your work. Fill one barge while the other is bring unloaded. Great background music and video production, well done!
I’ve thought about that and looked into getting one but barges aren’t cheap 😂
I heard this guy was still taking tiny scoops of weeds out to this day… too bad nobody taught him how to operate before sending him out on a job
Thanks for watching
If you use your arm like a leaf rake and reach out and keep pulling that stuff towards you, it will pile up and you can get a bigger grab of a pile which will take less time in time is fuel. It will save you money as well in the long run.
This would be great for government contractors 😅
Check out some of my other videos. I was still learning the machine in that clip lol
Useless piece of garbage ! But im sure some government grant paid for it
No grants whatsoever but thanks for watching.
I think it could be more Useful with some Re-engineering. A telescopic boom To move the material further on shore and a larger bucket/scoop🤷🏻♂️
Watch some of my other videos. More weight off the front would cause the front to sink. It’s engineered pretty well. This was just the first time to operate it
Bucket need to upgrade like a 10 feet not 5
Then it wouldn’t be able to lift it and stay stable. Check out some of my other videos. They show what I’m talking about. Thanks for watching
@@Calebdonaldson10 it's only lifting grass what chu mean it wouldn't be able to
Check out my other videos. Wet grass/weeds/leaves/sticks… it gets pretty heavy. It has a lifting capacity of about 650 lbs, which isn’t a whole lot of soaking wet material
one log 😂😂😂skimmer skimmed one log
Check out some of my other videos. That was the first time to ever operate the machine. There was a learning curve lol
Junk
Thanks for watching
Would it not make more sense to use a floating drag net like we do here? We clean an entire pond this size in 20 min max… this machine is a total waste of time imo
Thanks for the comment. I’m sure your way works well. There was way more to this job than what this shows. Check out my other videos to see what it can actually do. It actually does quite well. Thanks for watching
So for those saying it need hole it has them it’s a mesh problem is dude here is scooping up silts. This is for more open water I would think and probably have a better time of getting rid of it loading it into something instead of pushing it up shore. The mud is getting into all the mesh and clogging the water flow making it all pour back out the front as he plows it. This should be a skim very low depth by comparison to the water level and allowed to roll and strain as it move up the strainer. Effectively keeping the front of the mesh clean and neatly piling and debris in the back as it strains through
You’re 100% correct and thank you for actually knowing what you’re talking about rather than just hating on the video. That was literally the first time operating the machine with that bucket. The mesh holes are way too small for the silty area I operate in. I never use that bucket anymore for that reason. Check out some of my other videos. Thanks for watching
That's also really the only option he had with that branch, anything else and more was getting damaged
He handled it well lol
I thought my mans was mowing a lake for a second….had to put the joint down and take a second look
Thanks for watching
WHAT WITH THE HEAVY "'MUSIC" .IT DOSE NOTHING FOR YOUR VIDEO
Thanks for the feedback.
