Learned something new for me! I never get to work around any Cat equipment so living vicariously through you!
This procedure for putting on a Cat hammer works for me every time so I’m glad to share.
Cat mini excavators are so nice. If you ever get a chance I highly recommend them.
Thanks for watching Neil 👍🏻
I like the how to videos. Thanks guys!
We will definitely try to start making more of them. Thanks for watching we appreciate it👍🏻
never thought about the flow. I learned something new today so now I can go home thanks guys
Anything we can do to help buddy! LOL thanks for watching we appreciate it 👍🏻
Good to see you back Brandon the how to videos would be awesome guys thanks for the video 👍👍
Glad to be back! We plan on making more like this.
Thanks for watching Jamie 👍🏻
Great video.... the music was awesome on this one!
Lol 😂 we made it just for you!
Thanks for watching James 👍🏻
I dont use the red caps anymore, they were holding rainwater too much. I just wipe the fitting down before connection, seems to be ok. I have a H63 on the 303.5 and a H45 on the 301.7, both work great, the H63 is from 2005, still gets it done.
Yeah mine was a little frozen today but it seems to keep them cleaner. I think i bought mine 8 or 9 years ago and never had a problem with it.
Thanks for watching Joe 👍🏻
I like it 👍. I found a lot of people don’t know about the In cab settings . They think you Just hook up the hoses . They don’t know you have to change the flow rate. I think this is a great video
Thanks Steve. I know it took me some time to learn the in cab monitor but it’s handy.
This is the only way that works for us otherwise we fight it.
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
@@fulltiltgrading8366 it’s a good system
@@omyahya1645 I watched your video. Nice job 👍🏻
Hey I love free knowledge ! How to all the way ! 💪🏼
I couldn’t agree more Boss!
I want to learn something new every day if I can.
Thanks for watching buddy 👍🏻
Do a how to for the quick coupler on a Cat mini excavator I would love to see it Great Video keep it up
Consider it done!!! Thanks for watching
Didn't show the only part I needed to see, how to put the pins in
We have a hydraulic quick coupler, so we don’t have to take the pins in and out
Great how to video
Thanks Josh. I wish I could have seen something like this my first time putting it on. Lol
I struggled with it for hrs and had to crack the lines loose to relieve the pressure.
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Amazing video share my friend.
Keep spirit 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks buddy! The complete video of this job should be up this weekend. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
please do them always like to learn new things
Ok we will try to do more.
We appreciate you watching 👍🏻
NEVER grease a hammer that way. Always make sure the tool is depressed like you're ready to break material before greasing. Otherwise you will fill the cavity in between the piston and tool. Then when you fire it you could cause catastrophic failure to piston/cylinder.
OK I’ll start doing that. Thanks
Good work
Thank you we appreciate you watching 👍🏻
I’ve been reluctant to put a hammer in my 303 to avoid stress cracks on the stick.
Obviously your not using it every day but what’s your thoughts on the wear and maintenance of using the hammer?
In my opinion and experience a hammer is extremely hard on a machine. The only reason I own one it’s because the areas I work are very remote most of the time and it’s hard to find rental units available when I need them. I use mini excavators very hard in my line of work so I trade them in every two or three years. If you plan to keep the machine long-term I wouldn’t put one on it.
Thanks for watching Chris we appreciate it 👍🏻
Dude this video was so helpful! Thank you! One question, what is the tool called that you guys used to turn the two square nuts by the thumb?
I’m glad it helped. The tool came with the machine but I think a 7/16 wrench works.
Good stuff guys! Were you able to finish the job with the bucket and thumb or did you switch tools for each wall section?
The full video of this job will be up probably this weekend. We still have to hammer out the floor and the foundation which is 48 inches deep from what I’m told. There’s a lot more to come!
Thanks for watching Travis 👍🏻
And we switched from the hammer to the bucket at least six or seven times today
It is official, it is hammer time !!!!
Yes it is Alex. Something different!
Thanks for watching 👍🏻

Different is good Ed 👍
I may have missed it in the video but what kind of building was that? What was it used for?
It is a concrete cellphone shelter. We will have a video of the whole job probably this weekend.
Thanks for watching Allen 👍🏻
@@fulltiltgrading8366 Oh ok, thanks guys.
I watch to watch the mini to learn
Well Marlon I don’t think there’s another channel out there that has more videos on mini excavators than we do. There should be plenty for you to watch. We appreciate your support and hope we can be helpful 👍🏻
I like how to videos
Thanks Greg we will try to do more of them.
Appreciate you watching 👍🏻
One thing about doing How-To videos... if you miss a step you’ll be reminded! I read the comments... we both learned!
I like How-To videos. I was watching one the other day... coincidentally, it was a dude who was putting on a hammer too. However, he was putting a wooden handle on an 8lb sledgehammer head. He got it started then commenced to beating it in with another hammer. About the time that I decided to leave a hint that it was better to turn the hammer upside down and hit the handle on a softer piece of wood... he miss hit it and mangled the edge.
There wasn’t a slot in the encapsulated end of the head. When he went to drive the wedge he had a tough time getting it in. Once he got it started it followed the grain and was way off center. I was going to suggest that he slot it across grain to minimize splitting and ease the start of the wedge... before installing it...
But, he was so proud that he got it put on... I just told him nice job!
As far as excavator hammers go... my closest experience is a stubbed toe from walking around one at job site! So, I learned a lot. Thanx!!!
You always have the best stories William! Seems like no matter what size hammer it’s always a struggle LOL 😂
I’m with you I always think of a suggestion to recommend when I watch videos but then just say it’s probably not worth it! At least people are out there trying.
Thanks for watching William always love your comments 👍🏻
@@fulltiltgrading8366 LOL... yeah, my wife says I’m full of it... I quit asking, “Full of what?”
@@sassafrasvalley1939 she probably doesn’t appreciate your story’s like we do! 😂
LOL, my gal says "Your so full of you know what" , I give her a puzzled look for about a good 3 to 4 seconds, open my eyes up wide and say "Honey, your a school teacher, am I gonna have to send you to the bedroom", ummm she says" I don't think so", I just give her a great big smile, she turns red and walks away,,,aawwww Love that gal.
Wrong way to grease a hammer
I didn’t know that but thanks I’ll try it 👍🏻
Your doing it wrong the hammer has to be vertical not on an angle
Did you get a new truck?
You will have to catch our next video Bob! LOL all I can say is its sweet 😎
Thanks for watching 👍🏻
@@fulltiltgrading8366 I got a 19 350 srw last year. I have forscan if you need it
@@bobbowlinex9319 I appreciate that Bob 👍🏻
Need to put pressure on the bit before you install grease
I don’t know why I have never heard of that before but thanks for the info I will start doing that. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
You should always have down pressure on the pin before you grease your hammer. If you don’t you could put grease in between the pin and the piston and when you operate the hammer the grease will take out the oil seal for the piston.
I have had a couple people say that now Mitch. I never knew that but I will change my way. Thanks for the heads up we appreciate you watching 👍🏻
