Good job utilizing the machine you have. I've been around heavy equipment all my life, and work for one of the largest equipment manufacturers. A lot of these negative comments are coming from people who clearly have not been in the industry or have experience with equipment. Looks to me like he has the equipment he is comfortable using, can afford, and probably has the means to transport. It also needs mentioning he hasn't busted a sewer or water line and hasn't cracked the foundation of his home which could easily happen with larger equipment. While it looks like it's well taken care of, it is an older magnatrac so I'm pretty certain he doesn't have the price of a new one invested. All in all disregard the negative comments looks like you're having fun.
That one had a decent set of tracks and pads. The new ones are dinky and aren't wide to even start to hold up the machine in a soft place. And the Kohler is probably a cast iron 301 and 12 horses. Plenty for that rig. GOOD show!
I was thinking this thing would be nothing more than a joke. This guy did a lot of work that would have been no fun with a shovel, and he didn't even break a sweat. I looks like it would be good for someone to keep around the lake house, but no plan on doing any extensive excavating.
I worked with a crew on lease sites with one of these last summer. We flew it to the sites by helicopter. I was quite impressed with what it could do on five or ten horsepower.
you should go buy a cutting rdge for it, it would keep you fromm bending the blade, but great video, those little tractor are worth their weight in gold
It is cute and interesting, but for the same money a tractor with a frontloader will do a lot more a lot faster. These just don't have ghe weight or HP required. Now if space is terribly tight, maybe but if its that small use a rake
Ron Bell yes you can, a small tire machine skid steer from the 80s would out work this toy! And be bought for 6 grand or less have a 4500 dollar case skid steer that been going strong for 6 years and it’s a 82 model
@@morehp1 , well I will be finding out. I will probably post a vid in the future if all goes well. I take your point pretty well, where I will be working is pretty steep, so I definitely wanted a tracked machine. Also, clearance can be problematic. So, I see how it goes. Hopefully you are not all right, and I end up being just an "old fool". We'll see!
It was old compost. Thats usually what is under old leaves. See how black it is like farm topsoil. Gardeners would kill for that but the machine would struggle to take it or load it.

I am with you David, a lot of dirt pushed with that small machine!
They are a great small job, Landscaping back filling gravel and top soil handling machine.
@@ronbell7920 leaves/ compost not much was dirt Ronnie.
Was the large Mfr Tonka? Ertle?
Im very impressed. My garden tractor would crap its pants trying to do that work lol

That thing has some power for a little tractor/mini dozer!
Is the camera guy drunk? Cant hold the camera still
That looks like a lot of fun.
THE POWER !!!THE POWER !!!!
what power , just pushing loose dirt and super slow to boot
That's a killer Dozer 👍
Nice video! I first saw one of these a couple months ago in some guys garage. Very interesting little machine.
Does anyone happen to know the year and model of this magnatrac? It looks alot more solid built and useful than the new model
THE POWER THE POWER😂
I dont know why but i enjoy watching these little dozers work
I like watching but never seen one do anything beyond leaves/ loamy compost.
Metal heads and Dozers go hand in hand
you should go buy a cutting rdge for it, it would keep you fromm bending the blade, but great video, those little tractor are worth their weight in gold
I WILL LOVE TO HAVE ONE WOW
Cool as hell, I gotta get me one of those. How much?

You can buy a nice used skid steer for what they want for they’s toys. And move some dirt fast, and has lots of other uses
No you can't.

The power the power!!!, it's got a little 24 horse lawn mower' engine, surprised it's not pull start.
Exactly when does it do any plowing, all I see it doing is pushing?
Plowing dirt?
THE POWER
That's one sassy little dozer, at first i thought you were pushing leaves until i saw the dirt rolling over.
It was old compost. Thats usually what is under old leaves.
See how black it is like farm topsoil. Gardeners would kill for that but the machine would struggle to take it or load it.
Plowing or Dozing ? I think Dozing don't you ?
they was stoned out of their minds! please excuse them....
Grading.
Its a great machine very powerful i have same one
Calling B.S. You have no videos you are trying to sell yours probably.
That is not plowing.... Do they have a pot farm perhaps?
If you ever break a trac go to a farming supply. All they are is feed chains from a manure spreader
good idea for a custom project
If you can get those reasonably priced, it would be nice to have.
Kill dozer for sure lol
Seen one, couldn't keep tracks on, junk - don't waste your money
Based on a single experience? I never seen a track come off this particular tractor so based on this single experience I think they're all great.
Funny my buddy has one this size with a V-6 that would blow this of the road.
Wait is your buddy's name funny
@@spotty4710 hahahh Damn
lmfao...powerrr..
8
That's not plowing
it sure pushes those tough heavy leaves lolol
What model is this
jamieoliver456 mt 2000
Mini Dozers are the "Lawn Tractor" of excavating. Tiny & limited but capable none-the-less
So says you?
U still have it ??
I sold it yesterday
@@derrickst.julian6700 OMG why?
I built mine for 3k, and I know it would out perform this little unit.
Let's see it!
Your playlist looks like a bad dream.
people that machine will out work any tire machine in mountain areas logging its a true power house
@GuyPatsIt - Mountains? Sure.
Yes mountains
I bought 2 hydro5000 with the big backhoes
@@itsruf1 and I will never sell mine
@GuySpanksIt - Struck can't sell any in Wisc. The rolling hills dairy farms north of Madison are prohibitive.
U ever need any machine work done for that machine let me know
He will. All Struck owners do. You did too. I won't see my green iron videos.
a shovel would be faster , machine only pushes loose dirt and super slow , junk
