Thanks a lot. To be honest you were probably having more trouble with the fact that the Hitachi would of been stick priority hydraulics over Cat's boom priority hydraulics. They dig completely different. Big machines are a whole different class but once you catch on to one it doesn't take much to jump around. The biggest difference is how much momentum you have while trying to do direction changes.
How long did it take you to learn how to hold grade in that monster? I usually run a 312 cat now and it's pretty easy, but I had the opportunity to do a little diggin with a 600 hitachi in Iowa and it took me a while to develop my depth perception out so far away. Your cut looks really clean and neat. Says a lot about you
Excavator man would be fired for spilling rocks every single load. He obviously doesn’t own the rock trucks. Definitely doesn’t have a cent invested. Lmao
Justin Allen Lol I grease my own usually and I always count the other side and put a little less in cab side so it doesn’t get all over the cab/windows lol and also clean my window every morning...
Been out of the construction biz a number of years now, that shovel is HUGE!! Never been loaded by a shovel that big, those trucks were pretty much full after two buckets. Guess off-road hauling does not care about excess spillage while loading, I would rip the head off the operator if he ever spilled 10% of what this guy spilled onto the side of my truck. Do not know the size of the bucket, but back in the day, a shovel could never load my 22 yard tri-axle in 2, or 3 passes, even my 26 yard trailer easily took 6, 8 with the biggest shovels back then.
i am a jabroney although yes he load is an awkward way i find it much easier to start from the front and work my way back and let the tailgate catch everything but those 385 are not fast and easy machines if a truck moves over 2 feet you're looking atleast a yard to fall out before the bucket even makes it to the truck
You think he's loading gold He's working material he could move faster through, he knows that, he also knows what he's doing. He's not supposed to be super accurate, he's supposed to keep it clear enough for the trucks to move through and move that overburden away. He does a fine job, he says slam, but he could put a real hurt on those trucks if he was not good at his job. He's seems slower on the pickup but if I had to guess he's looking at what he's grabbing so as not to damage anything, a conciencious operator keeping workers safe and machinery running. I'm not an operator, but my brother has been for decades, if you feel you need to sweep up in this line of work you need to move on.
He emphasizes slamming. I know when i have 10 tandems coming on constantly you tend to care a little less about spillage and more about getting 20 loads out of each truck. Thats fast though dude good skills
@iwannabawannab perhaps you should familiarize yourself with the concept of mass excavating before you open your mouth with retarded comments. These aren't chromed tandems prissy boy this is called moving large amount of dirt quickly.
No he's right. That's not what slamming looks like, I didn't even see any dust fly around their cabs. More like "daintily loading large quantities of dirt quickly".
You'd be faster if you got the bucket out before you go down, your stopping before you get your next bite, the boom should never stop moving, just sayin🤫
It looks like fun but honestly I did that for many years ,haul trucks and triaxles and you want to shoot yourself from the boredom and repetitiveness of it.
casey bramley he definitely is rough but he could be a green operator not on the job long. I always try to help and give pointers to my coworkers as long as they are not cocky hotshots.
How long did it take you to get this good with excavators? I have always wanted to learn and love them, but have no contacts or family with any so ive never been able to.
killing old growth since 1977 I wish my machine sit like my recliner at home too lol those trucks are worse than that the rest of the trip if they’re getting anything done that is
That's a fairly large machine that moves a little slower than smaller machines. All you haters out there were are your vids at? Where is the cleanup dozer?
But Steven they saw a picture of a 385 once on the internet, so they must know better?! LOL 5 years later and I've been a superintendent, equipment trainer and now I'm the field services manager. Clearly I have no idea how to move dirt right?
vantagetes yes i find it funny of all the hate of people who think that can do better when they've never ran a 385 they are slow pigs but when it comes to moving dirt nothing comes close
vantagetes I'm 58 did lots of retention ponds and cuts on big highway jobs I enjoyed loading haul trucks more than triaxles because you don't have to be so gentle but after years it became very boring. Biggest machine I ran was a 450 JD 4 buckets of clay crap and the triaxles were on their way overloaded. I ran 345s but the JD had a bigger bucket,I wish I ran something bigger.
No disrespect but the operating was sloppy overloading trucks created road hazards and jobsite could have been kept tidier just my personal opinion. Been operating 30+ yrs. Again no disrespect to the machine operator.

Its not like he is loading on road trucks that are driving on the highway. He is bulking out material for production, loading the truck in about 50 seconds which is impressive. I'm sure a clean up dozer is going to come along and blade up his cut and the haul road so he can stay focused on getting some dirt moved not carving out a statue with a mass excavator. Welcome to mass excavation.
These dumpers are meant to be loaded to the max for obvious reasons then when the truck pulls away the operator cleans the mess it's simple it's not like he's loading brand new road going vehicles
@@killingoldgrowthsince when the truck is straight, the 2 cylinders for the articulated steering are in half extracted position. You can see the shiny cylinder piston in the video. A fine scratch and you have a leak.
@@Kenjh71 I've been working with those trucks since 1980 And I can count the steering cylinders I've seen fail on one hand. Their fucking built for it, give your head a shake man. Not to mention they have a bulk head ,headache rack and guarding to deflect said rock.
I've did that in a coal mine, its actually a decent job, u got heater/ A.C, stereo, comfy seat, seriously could be alot worse, now I load logs with a butt n top, definitely little more stress
depends on the material... let's assume this is dry clay... dry clay in loose cubic yards weighs from 1700 to 2000 lbs (rough estimate)… he said it's a 8 yard bucket... so using 2000, the math on that is a ESTIMATED 8 tons per bucket
I understand you are in overburden/shale rock here, but, when in easy material, you can almost double your speed by coming into the pile with the back of the bucket flat (your teeth are like) Instead of your teeth being like I I I I I I, looking at the bucket from the side they'd be almost _ to the ground and you also grade/seal as you go. Like I said... when in this kind of material you need the teeth and you are doing right by dragging your teeth through it assuming you're doing rough grade. Basically, you'd come in towards the hoe, flat, the bucket fills itself... then you back off the pile just a hair... then curl in some. I'll make a video someday if you don't know what I'm talking about. (I don't run 385s though :P... 160/210 mostly.)
Brian Hicks as some one that has ran a 385 digging with a flat bucket in that is about 4 times slower that machine is big and slow the more inputs on the joysticks the slower she goes
Brandon Kulikosky good luck wiping it off in cold weather! At the time it was better to leave it there and get it when the sun came out and warmed it a bit.
Putting the teeth at 90* is counter productive, you have no penetration. There's a reason why cutting edges are ANGLED. I'm cutting in heavy frost which is the Canadian equivalent to cutting in rock, even if you were in soft material you'd be hard pressed to beat my cycle times. I'm convinced you have no idea what you're talking about, please feel free to come back and comment when you do.
Neat work looks different. There is no need to load a full 3rd shovel. He has a lot of time till the next dumper arrives. May be he did so to have a nice video !
derwolfistda neat works well if ur doing a house pad or fixing a yard but for production with off road trucks just try and imagine why be neat when he those trucks will be going over it shortly and how much more yardage will be moved in a day with the truck absolutely as full as possible then in a month or a year omg I was just on a job two years day after day doing that and every bit counts just like every extra move is one less for ur machine and extra for u to do everyday and loading that much most likely until finish grade gets ran over so much so quick by trucks ,dozer it’s grader that’s little stuff can’t matter and I like neat work and finesse I’m still learning everyday the rougher bigger production faster cycle times efficient minimal stuff and it was taking me 9 passes for 745C with 336E way too many lol
Hi, I think your videos are the best on You Tube for tractors. Thanks! The longer the better.
I'm not in this biz but you certainly look like you know what the hell your doing! Screw the haters. Great job!

I prefer stick priority myself
Looks great!! keep up the awesome vids. I know if you were loading my trucks that fast I'd be thankful for the production boost..

Cody McMahon you ever do mass excavation or just load road trucks with a pc200 all your life?
friend 'm excavator operator in Brazil , you think you have a chance to work in a company like his being there?
Dig Eternal, Shiny and Chrome!
Nice, btw. who's pink ribbon is that holding the window closed? :)
8yd what boom and stick configuration? lookin at a 390 with a gp boom and 3.7 sick with a 6yd beefed up severe duty
Doesn’t that big slab of grease on the window bother you lol

Dumped a little too soon 2 - 3 yards dumped on the ground.
Oh no!!
shite
Trash the company's trucks ay? Sloppy. Ive seen better loaders. Hurry up! Go faster. Fuck it!!!!!! Not my rig not my problem ay?
His not that bad but he isnt the most talented operator
Nice operating sir! These couch operators don't know what they are talking about, good productivity and safe to boot...I run the CAT 390 in BC

Thumbed through couple 4 Comment s ...
(It's kinda like bumping the side of an off road vs the side of an ON road....
UUUUUUUGE difference.)
6BT_ Str86 exactly
Not gonna lie. I thought whatever that black thing on his glass is, was a crack in my screen.😂😂
Me too🤣🤣
that operator is in the raf (rough as fuck)
Hahahahahaha. Troll more.
+vantagetes yeah i know
Shut up
Get the windows cleaned you. Disgraceful

It'd be a fun job.....for about 20 minutes. Lol
@VHMillsy Slamming is referring to the load time not breaking the rock trucks.
I bet those haul truck drivers just love you for slamming all that material down on them.
😂😂😂
Not a clue do you have.

That dirt goes in the truck not on it! LOL! Great Vids!
He holds a nice line Idk what they talking about when I load moxys I spill that shit all around that way I know she's overloaded

That machine is a Cadillac

There's nothing to clean up, and a Dozer on haul roads. I'm thinking Grader if anything. SMH
Nice machine but let's make sure we're writing up the broken glass in the pre op?👌🏼
He needs to shake that bucket a little bit so he's not destroying those trucks
These dumpers are meant to be loaded to the max for obvious reasons then when the truck pulls away the operator cleans the mess it's simple it's not like he's loading brand new road going vehicles
Even so, there are exposed cylinders and hoses around the middle joint. Does not need a huge rock to cause damage.
@@Kenjh71 impossible to hit a cylinder loading like that.
@@killingoldgrowthsince when the truck is straight, the 2 cylinders for the articulated steering are in half extracted position. You can see the shiny cylinder piston in the video. A fine scratch and you have a leak.

@@Kenjh71 I'm thinking that you're not even a operator kid.
Operator is pretty smooth, perhaps he could slow the loading somewhat though.
Y its production as many as you can get in a day
u need bigger trucks with that bucket ,good operator but to much spillage in haul roads
Give your head a shake.
Who cares about the spillage. Look at the floor he left, nice and smooth. Haters gonna hate.
I have no idea what you mean by the title of the video, but I got the feeling that you know what you're doing
i thought you got promoted? you're running equipment again? i thought you just over saw everything.
New sub 💪🏼🇺🇸👷🏻♂️
This guys can probably take the baseball cap off your head without even disturbing your hair... Amazing..
The only good thing I watched was position, 40 ton (50) Komats leave a lot on the side, keep your off-roads safe, don't fuck up the tires.
Dude is pretty good
haha if thats slammn than i feel sorry for your woman
tam bi mazot düşmanı
Excellent.
I've did that in a coal mine, its actually a decent job, u got heater/ A.C, stereo, comfy seat, seriously could be alot worse, now I load logs with a butt n top, definitely little more stress

i dont see eneything wrong with this, almost getting 2xs heys load infact.....
so one bucket is about 15 ton of material?
Those are probably 45 ton loads

Thanks for the input captain common sense.Most companies have dozers and rollers to follow up.
Brian Hicks as some one that has ran a 385 digging with a flat bucket in that is about 4 times slower that machine is big and slow the more inputs on the joysticks the slower she goes
It's slower keeping the bucket flat works the machine harder and wears the bucket faster
Using the teeth,whilst filling the bucket,is faster.No need for smooth surface, just a level one.
Sweet, nicely done !
I belive till now you learn how to grab half full bucked !!
loko loko!!!! god job!!!! e ai amigo bom trabalho!!!! es um bom operador!!!!
Nice cycle times and grade was kept nice, but God damn that glob of grease on the windshield would give me a stroke
Brandon Kulikosky good luck wiping it off in cold weather! At the time it was better to leave it there and get it when the sun came out and warmed it a bit.
Oh yeah it's a bitch in the winter
How many hours is on that 385, seems to running great for an older machine
@jimjam894 I'm a foreman.
Wow making more for u maybe u should be put on the little cat no take u off all together

In the truck man not on the truck
Exelente
interesting.
Good work
Very good job
Awesome, thanks for upload :)
@1998Trailblazingfool 8 yards.
8 yards what? =40tons? no..
finally some more good in cab vids do more i like them
อยากขับด้วยจังเลยครับ
I know my comments are years late but this is awesome, how many tons were loaded and what kind of project is this? Keep up the good work
This is a new subdivision
Need another truck
Another good clear look at the action. I see the window cleaner on the right side of the screen!
