Saw a fully electric DeMag working at a Anthracite mining operation in Pennsylvania loading 785B Cat Trucks. Largest DeMag in North America at the time. Was very impressive. Got some great pictures with the large cable reel attached to the back.
That ole gal was from a much simpler time when you could actually perform repairs on your equipment and not need thousands of dollars worth of electronic equipment to communicate with several modules just to tell you the machine was locked out due to a fault in a piece of emissions equipment. Tier 0 for the win!😂
1:31 most truck drivers will just sit there with a dumb look on their face instead of repositioning to help the shovel out, but then again the shovel man might’ve asked him to get a little closer and straighter on the radio
Yep as a former dumptruck driver I'd keep an eye on the dig to see what's happening. But a quick toot from the navvy driver got your attention quickly enough...
@@PAmining I am not sure of the Demag number.I do know it came from the Black Thunder Mine.(Wyoming?) We had an O&K also.All were cut up as well as the 33/11s.
It has been blasted, its an old road that the trucks used to run on and that's made it packed down right! Also, demags do not have the breakout force that the PC series have
Demag le précurseur des grosses pelles . Une 285 etait utiliser a la mine de charbon a carnaux ( France) dans les années 90. Machine en train de rouillé dans un champ avec la flèche casser et verin tordu.
@@billmoore7137 Got used to having the bucket in the air and used it as a guide.The operators we had were good,and used to give a pat with the bucket,and very little spillage!!

The 485, yes I would have been 7 years old when she was digging here 😂 I would have loved to see that monster

Exactly! Always respect an operator who cares to pay attention
keep up the spirit friend
Had a Demag in Oxford Quarry years back.
Was it an H185? And I believe Oxford had a Poclain shovel too?

Think LLoyd,Chris,and George could help.
Big scoops of material
FIUNE opereator. Doesn't kill the trruck drivers like most of the idiots I know! BLESSINGS to ALL yall!
Its actually a very quiet machine. I'd say its bite is louder than its roar .
Compared to machines today, it's loud lol
Absolute beast in action. Why don't they blast there though? Looks like it's working really hard to strip that bank...

I've seen pictures of that machine!
Very beautiful machines !!.
Japaneses of Komatsu no undestand nothing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn't hear PA roar 😊
Rawr! 🤣😎
Mr..half bucket .
Have you ever run a shovel before?
I'd pay to go to the really digger land.
Dumper far too far away and three quarters of a load ain't gonna help his bonus.
I think he's doing a pretty damn good job at the controls of that old girl. You must be a shovel expert, what machine do you run?
@@PAmining used 2 operate an RH75 in the day and I wouldn't have my dump trucks that far away.
Don’t thing there’s any bonus going around on this job,like most today in the industry
