H&S has killed the Uk industry

[rafael21fabio20]

I have shovels with more power than this crappy machine lol.

[Jakeyboyshow]

thanx for uploading, but does Barry know this has been uploaded, because some of his methods seem a bit 'dodgey'....levels, slewing as mentionned already and carrying those sleepers like that - can be done, and we'd all probably do something similar out on site as a quick fix , but it makes the machine VERY unstable with all that weight out at full reach and doesn't strike me as something that should be taught to a novice...if he does that with a 15t machine it could get very messy very quick.

[escortmk112]

1st thing digger is not level before testing levels, 2nd digger not level before slewing at almost full reach , 3rd what a load of crap

[japnut04]

[stuartstrong]

@tannerbob69 Ok @tannerbob69, 97,017 views to date, That's Two Thousand two hundred and sixty one more viewers since we last spoke a week ago, so I am sure there is some thing of interest in the video to everyone wanting to learn and get a licence.

[arbitor55555able]

As well as training, don't forget to use as many long words, and as many simple comments as possible.

[DawnohopeBridge]

Perhaps the next video will be on how to drive a wheelbarrow, tipping a load etc,. without going over the top and getting certified, watch out too for any tsunami....

[odmcarp]

pretty cool idea pickin up those railroad ties like that

[bigneil8888]

Green jacket not allowed on a rail job young man !!

[stuartstrong]

@bigneil8888

Glyn Davies the instructor from All Southern Site Safety Training, is in fluorescent yellow coat as the railway has closed for the winter. The video makes it look green as you say.

[bridgehou]

1 thing , the jcb wasnt on level ground when you took the dipstick reading, other than that good video

[stuartstrong]

You are right, the digger was not on level ground when the engineer took the reading during filming.

The truth is that he had taken a reading earlier on flat ground in an area where the digger was stored, and when the engine was cold. Because we wanted to shoot footage "On Site" we went through the procedure again just for the camera, plus to keep a record of the procedures, nether the less you are right the digger was not on flat ground when checked which it should have been.
