  • How much fuel you burn per hour?

    I rented a CAT 320C which burned 8 gallons an hour....that stung. I can't imagine what this beast burns!

  • Love your work !!!

  • a truck full of mexicans with shovels could do the same work just as fast

  • Sounds heart breaking. I have no experience of real metal track tractors, but somehow it sounded ill. Transmission problems?

  • Do they make a double ripper? Two blades would seem to do a faster and better breakup of the hard pan. Just wondering. I LOVE POWER.

  • The moral of the story: Weight = Time = Money

    He has the minimum amount of equipment for the job to be most efficient for customer, with a faster completion time at the same time being comfortably profitable enough for him... meaning better service, better business, better name, more success. WIN.

  • Ahhhh The CAT in all her beauty and grace!! That's a pretty million dollar piece of equipment right there..and if you keep her busy and preform proper maintenance, it's worth every penny!!.. Nice rippin partner.

  • How much fuel does this beast use?

  • Thats a big field... Imagine if there are unexploded bombs there...

  • I'd like to see it do that with blue elvin or granite

  • OMG this is so loud!

  • Long slow prossess.

  • you are telling me that ripper is 7 feet in the earth?

  • She's no Bull, but I doubt she's a dozer either ;)

  • Saludos amigos desde VENEZUELA, las grandes extensiones de terrenos es lo que más vi en el video y el tren al final, largas horas de trabajo, acaso el patron o dueño le paga bien al operador que esta todo el día llevando el calor parejo fastidiado y cansado, eso opega en la columna vertebral. Paguenle bien a los operadores.

  • preguntale a chaves cuanto paga

  • Great video? It could be if you at least tryed to hold the camera still.

  • what's this ripping used for in this field??

  • Why did the take the blade off? Thats good traction weight the lost. How wide are the tracks on that? I would think they would be 2x wider. Nice cat.

  • hardly breaking a sweat

  • @kinghowie8 ..yep just like watching paint dry...wow..!!

  • watch a very strong D6 caterpillar v=KlwEuF9jKQs

  • nice video , any one know what the fuel consumption of a D11 is while ripping?

  • Fuck that

  • Yeah Paramount wanted us to rip Fresno States 4 acres and I said alright.Or they would have not gotten it ripped at all. Just to show the city people I did it with the 21" wide shank. It was a good 3 days. You guys still haven't landscaped it or anything. I remember I hit water underground from a stream under the soil.Major Flooding issues

  • Enjoyed the video but am surprised that the farmers over there aren't minimum till yet. We scrapped our rippers a few years ago here in Australia.

  • split your tracks and track it down

  • Whats the next opperation after you pass with this????? It looks like huge potatoe ridges!!

  • i dont care what you guys say that big lady is getting her arse tighened with that big ripper,just listen to the moans and groans of them tracks and the deep whine of the transmission.good video keep em coming.

  • why the heck do u rip down 7 ft

  • well that must of bin boring for you.

  • Ripping is done to till the soil for crop plantation isn't it? Some serious forces being exerted on terra firma - bet a Cat D8 couldn't cut it with a ripper that big & deep.

  • im a viticulture student at fresno state, i saw you guys ripping out there a while back, pretty cool stuff, my boss runs an orchard and removal business out of fresno

  • Yeah Paramount wanted us to rip Fresno States 4 acres and I said alright.Or they would have not gotten it ripped at all. Just to show the city people I did it with the 21" wide shank. It was a good 3 days. You guys still haven't landscaped it or anything. I remember I hit water underground from a stream under the soil.Major Flooding issues

  • sweet, i was told Paramount was sponsoring a citrus project or something like that, so i have no clue what theyve got planned

  • Time to plant some corn and fire that operator. What the heck do you call that operation? Smells like a sure way to wear out a nice bottom.

  • just guessing but are you guys breaking hard pan for a farmer here or for property development

  • Well this was farming development. Making unplant able ground plant able. And also to break all the big layers and pieces of hard pan.

  • @gooodyboyz559 ...I would be walking behind that tractor...with a gold detector boys....Might find a bonus

  • @gooodyboy why not pull a wide plough as well..?....behind the ripper...gitt er all done in one hit..mate...farmers have money to burn by the look of that....get paid for ripping and ploughing...and then you can put those horses to work...

  • I love how technology makes life easier: with out this you and our kids will be digging all day. =)

  • i like your video...

  • Blade slows the machine down!So basically if your paying 335 an hr,and we do 1 acre per hr its gonna become 2 hrs per an acre with blade!Only time blade is needed,is when the tractor can't go at a certain depth without spinning.There is always a reason for what we do sir,not to sound rude at all.Just that we have been in the business forever and know why we do things!I started off as a Holt Mechanic,so I know my machinery.

  • @erimus1 ..Sounds like your the X in Spert..mate.....wide grousers....narrow grousers..what the fuck...its called traction... pal..get with the program..and what ya gonna push out there with a blade..the flies out of the way......lol

    These guys know there shit..............thats why they are buying D11's

  • you guys extended the grousers on the tracks?

  • yes we do!we extended them longer than spouse to be and the other 2 D11's I put 32 inch tracks for better traction

  • What are grousers?

  • it is the vertical blade part of the track pad.

  • Great to watch,  A reasonably skilled operator, using the right gear, has the shank pitched to the correct angle and turned that big tractor with a 3 point turn rather than screwin it on the spot. Very nice neat straight furrows too.

  • we do 3 point turns so afterwards when farmers disc it,they won't break anything!i seen alot of Challengers nose dive and alot of axles break on other tractors,so we try to not make mounds

  • O now I understand! Your a tree farmer! LOL, I thought you were growing row crops! It all makes sense now.

  • it just doesnt make sense.. Why does'nt it have a blade?

  • the reason were not using a blade is because it slows the CAT down quite a bit and also its harder are more costly to keep taking the blade off and on when u have to move.so we just keep the blade off so we can move faster and go faster for the customers happiness

  • you do make sense we once had a D10N wwhen they first come out we don't do what yall do we push dirt with are's we got a 9 to 8s a6 and a 4 an 3 komatsu track hoes to 220s an a 300 all new under a 1000 hours an 2 rtic trucks A35Cs good cond to

  • an 11 looks like a little overkill for ag. practices! A 4wd tractor and a 8 shank ripper will do the job.

  • well sir honestly if you want to get the best crop and save money in the long run deep ripping is the only way to go.i've been in this business forever and from personal experience if you want to plant trees and not water as much,deep ripping does that for u.though at the same time if takes that hardpan at 6ft or below and keeps the trees at a equal height,they also outgrow trees that are not ripped

  • they are deep ripping for agriculture.

    the soil gets packed,and water cannot get to the roots so they run a deep ripper to open up the soil.

  • Umm.. So, this area is so compacted that it needs to be ripped by a single shank of a D-11??

  • yeah thats pretty much it

  • i been in the ripping business a long time and i learned the deeper the better!yet at the same time the least cost for the customers,so thats why we rip we our 3 D11's and we use custom made shanks,not the factory shank

  • good video, really is difficult to film with this floor. where is this place?, what is the purpose of this ripping?, what material and what is the production rate? thanks
