- Neighbors had a mulberry tree they wanted taken out. I had a unimog with a backhoe. Isn't that what being a good neighbor is about?
The action starts @ 2:55.
Here is the follow-up video using the hydraulic chainsaw to cut the tree up: • 5.6L Mercedes Chainsaw - Навчання та стиль
This IS a “S mall E mplacement E xcavator” S.E.E. used by the Army for many years in Combat Engineer units to support other Combat and support units with .
A living nightmare to service and repair .
They were sold and warrantied by Freightliner truck dealers .And powered by Mercedes Benz Diesel engines .
Looks like Wayne the mechanic from C&C Equipment got to take home a Unimog to try out.
Coolest unimog ever. I want one now.
Ask them, they have some:

and also Morlock Motors in Germany ha-shad one parked in the yard, did not look very finished or ready to ship soon.
I think he ignored the sign on the door.
Shhhh, that’s supposed to be the inside joke.
Looks like Case Construction King boom on the Unimog.
YES everything is CASE backhoe. C&C does videos on service to them on his channel
He gets them, goes through them. Top to bottom. Then sells them at his dad's and him
Sales and services yard. He buys a lot of Military surplus. Lots of OD colors CAT dozer's.
A slick piece of equipment! They come with either a Mercedes Benz or freightliner engine!
Thanks for the video, I have been having fun with mine, can not control the front end loading while operaating the back hoe, also cooling fans have never turned on?
sounds like you need to adjust or replace your thermostat
The fans have a tendency to get moisture in them and lock up, them blow the fuse. This can then cause the other electrical on the back like the loader controls to stop. Go to the SteelSoldiers forum.
One thing you might try. Listen to your hydraulic
Gage your fingers on the lever movement by the Hydraulic noise. If that helps. You did great moving it with backhoe as far as I'm concerned
Thank you for showing it to us all. Very clean looking.
I could have dug that out with a spade quicker than that 🤦 having said that I love unimogs and this is a great piece of kit 👍
Yeah, it was my neighbors tree and I talked them into letting me take it out so I could play with the Unimog.
I remember operating one in the military. Thought they where a great little machine.
Chaddington Mcthundercock here reckons he can dig a tree that size out in under nine minutes? Riiiiight.
Come on over! I've got some yard work for ya! 😂
What thumb attachment did you go with?
"No dumb here. Do not Dumb"
DADDY BEANS.... YOU beat me to it....
Love the channel though...and unimogs
I love to have one of these, what is the ball park figure on them? Thx.
Depends on condition. One just sold on BringATrailer for $45K, but a guy just bought parts from me for one that he paid $8K for. Two ends of the condition spectrum.
@@digdigdug Thx
I cut my teeth first time I operated my uncle's 580-C backhoe when those were new on market
I learned the controls. It's so easy once you learn that you just push them out and all function go out. The foot pedal swing. That is in a lot of big mining shovels, dragline big electric equipment. Can you leave the backhoe out of stowed position to move around with. The boom lockup for travel just a FYI. Never move your head out or above lever. I just about beamed myself, because of the sometimes having to rock the Case type boom lock in place. Who did you buy that from.
Where do you find a truck backhoe like that
C&C equipment
Don’t you know you can operate the bucket from your seat , it’s off to your right when you’re sitting down.
Unimog. Jack of all master of none. I see you figured out the outriggers need to lift the tires off. Otherwise it just beats the shit out of you.
That’s no tree.. that’s a branch a truck could pull it
He has a serious look on his face, but you know He’s laughing like a child, on the inside.
Hard to get that one stuck. With some practice a guy could go just about anywhere, Especially with two operators. NICE rig, I'm jealous.
I think he’s just learning how to operate the machine by the look of it, give him a break!👍
Yes he’s clearly never been taught about the remote switches on the how to raise and lower the loader without having to get off the back of the machine, or the remote throttle switches… But he’s doing ok with three stick! Not everyone was fortunate enough to use these in the service like I did and get schooling on them
That looked like hard work 😂 chain saw
Dig around the base of the tree and pull out the roots. Then the tree will pull out. You’ll save wear and tear on the machine….think first. The machine was not made for your approach.
Sir, you miss a lug or bolt on your rear left tire !
The advantage of that machine is that it can be moved to the jobsite without being hauled, and that is about the only plus it has going for it. That road must have a very good base, or the edge of the asphalt would not have survived the stabilizers with dirt pads at the edge.
It can travel at 50 mph!
Chainsaw would have been easier
I never got to drive one of these. they were in are motor pool and i was licensed for them.
I miss operating that so much
Thank you for your service.
I needs to get me one
That's a SEE truck...Small Emplacement Excavator. I ran one in Saudi Arabia during Desert Storm. Mortal pain in the ass to change a starter in.
Surprised you would say this. There is an access panel and I can remove a starter in 30 minutes or less. But I’ve only had to do it once.
C&C???
No, Far cheaper from an auction.
Armer Baum, wie er kampft gegen Mensch und Maschiene
thats not a tree.its a bush
Fun stuff. I would trade my utility tractor for one in a heart beat.
Je moet nog veel leren
