Awesome excavator, leveling is the key to a good operator, just like a DJ learning mixing, graffic designing..5 years in art school....etc... those skills are history, with hi-tech systems that make these redundant...but all about productivity and money...
New digger looks good, amazinng the new features they'r eadding to ease the tasking of the operator. 8-10hr concentration on a machine is tiring. I'm in construction and I still don't uinderstand green lights. If you want to make operators wear the seatbelt, just put a sensor in linked to the controls so it can't track. More flashing lights on a busy sight just adds distraction, esp. on a busy highway site at night.
Wow that is a really great features on the digger. I wish my 10 year old Jcb had any of those. Did well with those tine arms they can be a right pain to get right. 👍
Thats a cracking piece of kit I've been driving diggers since 02 and would welcome that technology with open arms the weighing system with the built in GPS is 👌👌👌👌
Drive machines myself it looks good . Need the laser guided as you say for it work 100%% Have used GPS machines where the site engineer uploads the info then off you go to position level the lot .
Great Video, best of luck with the new 313 You can also keep a grade ( a level) while moving by using the "touch point" feature on the monitor You can also use it with a laser level if it's got the receiver on the stick The button on the RPM Dial changes the power modes not the auto idle
@@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer If you're digging a drain to a grade you need to have the digger and the laser set to the same grade (%). It works really well , very fast & efficient
Good video Olly, the new Cat looks tidy.. bit of a difference to an old Hymac excavator.. the technology you can get now is amazing but as for the likes of the self levelling it can take away an element of skill but could also improve your productivity, bit like GPS on a tractor etc I suppose..
Cracking bit of kit is the new 313 olly, we have several cats in our fleet, all with trimble earthworks GPS. Just have to remember that as soon as you move the tracks to reset your level to where you have been working with the 2d (efence) Be plenty more digger action if your About next week for Hillhead Plant show!!
That Cat is sweet Olly….. some tech in it , love that grading setting….. can you set it for a slope if your putting in drainage? Miller are a great quick hitch Hope it gives you many years of reliability..
Have to say that new digger is very trick, but I can say without any doubt that non of those features will still be working when it gets down to my price range 🤣🤣. All this clever stuff is great when it is still under warrantee but generally too expensive to keep working once it is out. Enjoy! Should make you all grade 1 digger drivers 🤣
It's nice to see technology advancing now I'm not a digger driver but I have worked as a labourer around machinery. And I just can't help but think there are very few drivers who would be interested in something that high tech just seems like more to go wrong on top of the eventuality of a pipe shitting itself
Question for you olly, is it easy to get into farming/contracting eg go and work for a farm/contractors if you have no experience ? Do farms take on people and train them up ? Would love to get into it but always assumed they would want experienced people as they are always soo busy, and time is money of course 😅
That's a very smart digger, with regards your Merlo, do you here the whine when you are in it or is it the microphone on the camera just exaggerating it
Nice digger Olly what size engine/hp is it. Making driving to easy with all the technology 😂. Had a nice drop of rain here in Pembrokeshire today. Hope your voice gets better.
The new Cat is a smart piece of kit, its a sad day when tech has to replace the needed skill and feel of a good operator if you can still find one 😳 95% today, hope your throat gets better soon Olly 🤞
Think u need to rest yrself for covid again Olly, yr sore throat/loss of voice could be a symptom of it.I have it after a weeks sore throat before hand.😪😪🙏🙏
The Cat levelling system looks good, but the skill of an experienced operator will be lost in 20 years time. My old Dad would have said it was cheating!!!! No doubt the plastic panels will be 'best sellers' for Cat dealers in the future.
Great video olly a very calm man
Thanks for the birthday shoutout Olly, it really made my day!! 100% today
Hi love the new digger
Cat looks good , that level assist feature would make my life easier wish all diggers had it , hope your voice gets better soon oly .
Olly that’s a smart 360
🤙🤙👍👍
Ilike your pipe bender Ollie looks a very usefull tool .your new digger looks ace its very high tech feeling 98% today another great video Ollie Eddie
If there's ever a UA-cam channel for me to watch for my mental health it's this . Love watching the old school new school machines!!
Thanks

far to much common sense 😃
Hi Olly Nice Digger the technology looks handy Thanks again
Cool video nice digger
Great content again
Brilliant piece of kit Olly. Take Care.
Good video olly. That is some technology in the digger very clever
Nice cat got its own smart dig on it abit like GPS be nice for grading off cat power 👍
Brilliant video olly 😃👍
Good job straightening those parts from the rake! You made that look pretty easy but it isn’t! From a fellow farmer and agri engineer in Somerset!

Great video olly that’s a fine digger best of luck with it I’m 94% today
I like that shiney new CAT digger!
2D E Fence Olly, had it on my 320 brilliant system
That digger is Sub Zero on the cool wall. They also use that E-fence to stop them going into the carriageway when using them for roadworks.
New digger looks lovely, won't need a 360 operator's course any more now it does it for you. Told them twice sack em lol. 94%.
Drive machines myself it looks good . Need the laser guided as you say for it work 100%%
Have used GPS machines where the site engineer uploads the info then off you go to position level the lot .
Nice video of the cat but more electronics = more thing to go wrong plus bigger repair bills when someone pulls a wire out of the sensor’s 👍👍
Great Video, best of luck with the new 313
You can also keep a grade ( a level) while moving by using the "touch point" feature on the monitor
You can also use it with a laser level if it's got the receiver on the stick
The button on the RPM Dial changes the power modes not the auto idle
Receiver is on back order

Brilliant tool that straightening device….
Lovley digger 👍👍👍that’s mint makes life easier 👍👍👍👍
Yer does
1:40 won’t they bend again easily now? Should they be reheat treated?

The new cat looks nice bit of kit . Grading whit a digger is the hardest thing to master soon there be known good operators left.
Lol
As I retire tomorrow. At last, I've made it. Why weren't my governors more like you. I'm trying not to grovel. Great watch as always 👌
Good luck with your retirement and hope you enjoy it 🙂
Thanks all a pint here i come
Happy retirement

Miller are a great quick hitch
Hope it gives you many years of reliability..
Yer with laser
Miller hitch made in Cramlington Northumberland 😁
What system for level assist does the CAT use; is it proprietary?
Great video olly, that digger is some bit of kit, I bet that was expensive 🤔
Would be now

Hello olly the new cat looks very posh Iam 75% today

Hi Olli is the smart dig on the cat in with the package that comes with the digger or an extra as might be looking at getting one 👍
Not sure
Hope your voice gets better
Spot a jcb teletruc in the yard . Get a drop tray under it 🤣🤣
Can you put subtitles please as been watching while at a wedding !!!!!😂
UA-cam will soon
Is the computer assist only on CAT or is it a retro fit that can be fitted to other or all ?
Not sure
Is my dad used to swear by whiskey honey lemon and a drop of cider Especially at night as you go to bed not recommended early in the morning

That a bobby dazzler
Are you going to the highland show?
Won’t have time tbh
Nice New Cat Excavator😎
Did It Come From Cat Winsford 🤔👍

It is a problem people been busy tbh
Are you looking for a new excavator drive Olly? Reckon I'm nigh on qualified now. 😉 She's a smart machine!
🤣🤣🤣
Have you had the new digger over the weighbridge?
No will do
hi olly, are you to cheshire show this week?
Yer
Have CAT realised that there’s not skilled plant operators coming through anymore 🤫
That's a very smart digger, with regards your Merlo, do you here the whine when you are in it or is it the microphone on the camera just exaggerating it
Mic exaggerates it
Nice digger. Go on how much did it cost?
98.500
@@OllyBlogsAgricontractfarmer Love the honestly Olly. Keep us up to date on how the Yaris is going.
Wich airhorns do you have on the fendt 724? I am a wachter from belgium and i enjoy your youtube channel!
Just train ones
Now they look that whose grave is at middle of hay field 😂
Yer lol
Who ever didn't put the old bales under the new hay.......
Nice digger Olly what size engine/hp is it. Making driving to easy with all the technology 😂. Had a nice drop of rain here in Pembrokeshire today. Hope your voice gets better.
Not sure tbh
looks like you have done more levelling up than this govt ever will.....
Sorry, I didn't hear any hay stacking instruction?! If it isn't on UA-cam did it really happen?😅
Boom

Lol
Is it ur farm or are u just a contractor?
Mine
😎
👍
Myself and my brother would like to visit you and team. Are you available to meet subscribers for next month
Pretty busy but we will be at kelsall steam rally
These new machines with electric over hydraulic are not very smooth
