Great video buddy! I’ve done that before with the bucket. Easier to do than most people think. Your guys mud is crazy slick when it gets a little rain. Keep killin it man!
Good on you for not cutting the footage of the quick attach mistake! Important people see that for automatic QA, the locking pins should always be visibly inspected from the base!
Where are you stuck? I’ve been in situations like that and if you just take and scrape the top 2 inches off you pretty much go wherever you want. when you scoop our head up, it just makes a mess somewhere you got a hold of dumping in.
Your conditions are exactly why I have my mini sitting in a yard in Grovemont.....too muddy. For the slope stuff I just bought a cheap recovery vehicle project with a pto driven 20k Braden winch. Heck, on our property I can't even access the areas that need some attention. Question though, why not use the tractor with a grapple on the brush? I've always had more success in mud or snow with a tractor.
Good luck with your project and it's still raining here for several days in the forecast. I'm trying to do an engine swap on my tractor outside in the same thing your working in. Hope you get some sunshine soon.
Too wet around here tonight now for a project I need to do. Had minor back surgery today so be down a week or so anyways so let it rain I guess. I can catch up on some videos. Looks good Todd. Great video as always.
I saw that gopher peeking over the display. He was giving you the old stare down. Do you feel more comfortable on mud or ice working across slope??? That sideways slide creates an off the chart pucker factor!! Great idea to limit the mud/dirt on the brush cause it’s a pain burning. Ironically, I watched this video sitting in the dentist office this morning. 👍👍👍
That was even better in the video than live on the phone! 🤪🤣😀
Oh the rain, it’s just a joy trying to work in mud season…
Lol!!! True story
Making the best of a rainy day -- Good on ya. Can't wait to hear wat Sam says about him getting you stuck... 🤣
😂😂😂

I try to keep it real
I think it’s a gopher’s fault not Sam’s
I think they are in cahoots!!!
Great video watch out for the gopher
Thanks Kevin 👍👍👍

Do you remember when/where you learned to "Slick it down" to help it dry out?
Oh lord…long time.
Glad I'm not the only one that forget to lock my grapple bucket 🤐

Lol! I’m fairly comfortable on both but mud is easier
Great content from the King of Excavators! Love the content, channel and information you provide. Like the camera view!

I hate it when i slide sideways down a hill in an excavator.
It’s rarely a convenient outcome
👍
