That’s good stuff man! The changeability and the comfort of a cat is one of my favorite things about them. These new ones can conform to just about whatever a feller wants. That’s a pretty sweet machine ya got there. Keep up the good work!
@@smithworx1091 not this advanced. You can change the speed/sensitivity of the boom and the tracks, separately. I should fool with it more and see what all the difference is. I just turned it up and ran away with it lol. But you can’t set the speed like you can in the 313.
That's a great video. I'm sure it will help someone that doesn't know how to setup their Cat excavator. You would think that Caterpillar would have videos on how to adjust their machines. The adjustability is definitely going to help you to be more productive. Now if it would stop raining so much you can get out there and start using it. Be Safe Out There Man!
@@smithworx1091 don't say that about the weather because the weather man is known to lie to use 😂 But I sure hope so. I don't do much anymore but I'm going to have to mow this grass. But I do enjoy watching others work just wish I could get out there and smell some dead dinosaurs coming out of the exhaust of an Ole Cat early in the morning. There's just something about that smell that makes a man feel alive.🤣💪🏻 Be Safe Out There Man. Oh and if you let Rookie on your equipment you might want to turn them back down. If you know what I mean. 🤣
If I ever hit the big one the first thing I buy will be these cats Cool video ! The way the machine is set up can make you a good or bad operator, that's amazing.
Great video! I had no idea you could do all that. Only control I have is the thumb and aux hydraulics. I would definitely like to change the thumb pressure against the bucket. I feel like the thumb pressure is way to high like you mentioned yours was. And I sure wish I knew when you was recording something like this so I could call and text rapid fire, blowing that phone up. 😂But I guess you would block me!😫
I'm gonna say you can adjust your machine somehow. I had to edit out the part when my phone connected to the radio and started blaring music 🤬 I was so mad. There would've been some beeps in the audio! Lol
Great video... I had a 305 and was not happy with it, then i just had delivered a 307.5, a lot more weight. Don't suppose you know if the 307.5 has all those settings? I can sure tell mine is running out of control. Thanks for taking the time to do this video
Thanks bro. Just browse through the machine settings. If it has a work tool setting, that's where it should be. If not, then Cat should be able to adjust it for you.
I feel like if the 306 has the touch screen then you might can adjust these settings. Mine didn't have the touchscreen and I never really saw where to adjust it. But I also didn't look hard enough. I will ask the Cat guy when he comes back out to put a lockscreen on my dozer.
U could also destroy your automatic hydraulic regulator much quicker if u push the hydraulic pressure to a max high. Medium is always more efficient-reliable. This type of machine and the likes deal a lot with F = ma, and L= mv’2/2 momentum can be your friend and it can be your enemy. I always work with it than against it. Your 313 is fairly quiet.
I didn't know they had that much adjustment on the new machines with the electronic sticks. Pretty sweet until a mouse decides to have a wire for lunch or something goes haywire 😂
@@Justalittleoutoftown have you seen the video of Chris Letsdig18 where the black cat was in a Cat excavator. It scared Chris so much he jumped out the front of the machine. So I don't think Cat's like Chris that maybe why he owns Volvo excavators. 😂
You purchased the 313 excavator 10 months ago per your youtube video back shows, the hour meter shows 331 hours so 33 hours a month usage, how are you paying for this machine? It is not generating enough revenue to pay for itself; you must be hurting financially.
Bob. You're killing me, bro. If the machine wasn't making money, A. I would've already lost it or B. I would've sold it! What you don't understand or have failed to listen to is dirt work, and excation is not the only way I make money. If you can't pay for better equipment or handle your finances, then that's your problem.

@@smithworx1091 Is What you said; you are using your day job at the factory to make payments on the equipment. I deal with the same thing, contractors that have day jobs and have that money to cover expenses while contractors that are full time have to compete with the some time contractors. It results in low prices low revenue for full time contractors. Makes it hard to generate enough money to pay the business bills and take money out of the business to live on for full time contractors. The rule in dirt work is low bid gets the work. I've been doing this for only 34 years now. You do know that a bad business recession is right around the corner.
@LAKESIDEBOB1 that confirms you don't really watch enough videos or care to listen. I don't have a "day job" I have more than 1 side of my business. The side you don't see makes more money than dirt work. It has also been raining for the past 4 months. Dirt work is slow no matter if you're big contractors or small side hustles. I'm not gonna sit around and wait for it to dry up if I can go make more money with my "day job" I'm also not going to stop doing dirt work just because I'm not putting enough hours on my machines that you think I should. If you don't enjoy the content just unsubscribe. Or if you do enjoy it, which I hope you do, try not to be so negative and maybe offer some encouragement or something beneficial. Thanks bro. Have a good day.
LAKESIDEBOB1 should find another line of work if he can’t make his Dirtwork business work, and since he has a Crystal Ball and can predict a recession that is looming, then LAKESIDEBOB1 should consider being a Financial Analyst and/or Financial Advisor, but we are NOT interested, so buzz off Bobby
Thats really neat how machines have so many different functions and how it makes them work. Thanks for showing that bud. Have a great day.
Thanks Paul. These next gen machines are very operator friendly. You can just about set every button and control the way you want it.
That’s good stuff man! The changeability and the comfort of a cat is one of my favorite things about them. These new ones can conform to just about whatever a feller wants. That’s a pretty sweet machine ya got there. Keep up the good work!
Does your skid steer have this type stuff? I've never been in a D series machine

@@jimmytew9468 haha you're right. I got Rookie locked out. He doesn't know the pass code 🤣
@@smithworx1091 good thinking 👍🏻🤣
thanks i was wondering how to do this on my next gen caterpillar.
Jacobey!
If I ever hit the big one the first thing I buy will be these cats
Cool video ! The way the machine is set up can make you a good or bad operator, that's amazing.
Yeah it can make a bad driver really good with the grade assist. I should've adjusted this thing a long time ago
I think you are doing better than you realize. Just keep going and all will come together and be great
@@goodboyringo9716 I appreciate that Ringo!

Do you know if this works on the new 306?
Great info btw!!!

I wonder if I can adjust my 308 next gen settings like that
It has the touch screen monitor
You might can

It seemed quiet to me. But I've never been around anther excavator in this weight class. Cat did a good job on the Cab with the noise I think
I didn't know they had that much adjustment on the new machines with the electronic sticks. Pretty sweet until a mouse decides to have a wire for lunch or something goes haywire 😂
I worry about mice a lot. I really need to get some of those mice keep away things. Or that spray. Not sure if any of it really works
@@smithworx1091 at least with a cab, wasp and snakes is not as bad.
I'll fight a snake before I'll swat a wasp! 🤣
I use the mint spray. Not sure if it works but haven't seen any mice. I also put the blocks of rat poison in different places on the machine too...
Where did you find that spray?
How long have you had the 313?
Since last June
@@smithworx1091 it’s a nice machine of course let’s dig wouldn’t like it
@@Justalittleoutoftown lol you're probably right
@@Justalittleoutoftown have you seen the video of Chris Letsdig18 where the black cat was in a Cat excavator. It scared Chris so much he jumped out the front of the machine. So I don't think Cat's like Chris that maybe why he owns Volvo excavators. 😂
@@jimmytew9468 yes that was priceless. Maybe that’s why he has dogs and cows and Volvos
I'm not a operator and don't have a track hoe, could I come learn on yours. 😂
Learned a lot. Thanks.
Man yeah! 🤣 thanks for watching bro
