    I’d put some quick couplers on the thumb of the excavator and use that aux. circuit to raise and lower the trailer. No tractor needed and you can hook the trailer back up to the excavator after it’s loaded and raise the trailer back up.

    Chet, Dougo... there is a quick fix for frozen carrier rollers on dozers and excavators. Wad up a couple pages of a newspaper and then soak them in diesel and position them under the rollers and light them on fire. They will stay alit for a couple minutes, which is usually enough to start turning again. If not, repeat as needed. Merry Christmas and all the best in the New Year to everyone there!!

    The bad part of running tracked equipment in the fall and winter is you have GOT to shovel your tracks everyday. Otherwise….you get flat spot rollers. Also I’ve used pieces of trees, grab them with the excavator bucket and push the bigger frozen chunks out of the undercarriage and then shovel the remaining bits. I’m sure you already now this….or carefully use skidsteer forks

    When you run a dozer for the US Army, the one thing they stressed was keeping things clean around the track rollers - especially in cold weather. Nothing worse than chiseling out frozen dirt from around a track roller...which I'm sure you already know. It's a five minute job when you quit for the day. Really enjoy your videos! Nice to see how well you treat your equipment.
