the excavator is a Case 800 CX. It's weight is about 80 metric tonnes. It loads about 5 to 6 cubic meters (6000 litre). They were working on th ehighway A73 nearby Venlo in the Netherlands. The owner is Van Kaathoven fro Beek & Donk
Wow.... I run an 1800 Hitachi and load triple sevens some end dumps and some 77 yard belly dumps and the fastest way is in and out straight through load over the ass end... but that shit looked messy as hell so what works best
I think he doesn't swing over the cab, the video just makes it look like it. All that aside, he could have changed the bench around to load safer and more efficently. By the way its a Case CX800 excavator and a Volve A25 truck.
@KyleJe typical learner operator comment change his bench hahahah you pups make me laugh. why not just get the truck to driver under rather than back under and hey presto the cab is at the under end. hahaha
@jefffurrow ive seen a few 5230's.im pretty sure this is a hitachi ex3600-6. same size, either way BIG EXCAVATOR. nice shots too dutchtrainmanseries22!
@olo1916cwks sam nie wiem ;p chyba o to ze on z ta lyzka nad jego kabina to przenosi ;p ja pierdole.. ;p nie maja czego wrzucac.. pewnie sie spuszczaja jak to ogladaja :D
those r some fruity ass colors for a machine...atleast its better than those japs with there pink machines...nice excavator tho case machines r very under-rated..cool video
wow are they color blind??? thats the ugliest excavator i've ever seen!!! i'm sure he's not swinging over the cab ....but i would've set it up to load over the rear...you can start unloading your bucket sooner ..... smother faster more fluid movement ;)
yes there are times when you half to swing near the cab buy this is clearly not one of them. He should be cleaning and throwing he material behind the truck and he is to high to be productive. The bottom of the track should be even with the top of the tire PS if you think that is a difficult site you should come to the pacific north west
so if u look on here for w.a. rasic you will see some of my companies stuff. we do have a pc1250 and 1000. also a hitachi 1200. indeed you never want to swing over a cab but there are times when you will get close. no i dont believe he is swinging over the cab. although there are times when you do swing near cab for different reasons and it is sometimes impossible not to. if you havent came across the situation then maybe you dont operate enough or just dont get difficult jobs to excavate.
Yeah, so I was expecting a Big excavator..... I work on, and operate a 3600 Hitachi hydraulic shovel, as well as the 785 caterpillar haul trucks in a mine...... and Im like all the other guys...... its a no no to swing over the cab....... and I load over 400 truck loads a shift when in the shovel.......
i would fire him because he should be loading that truuck over the tail gate so he could empty his bucket in one smooth motion and not have to stop the loaded bucket , then dump, then risk the drivers life while he swings back he is wasting time ... as for the operating engineer your response is what i would exapect from a union guy that has no sense of production
Lots of comments from top operators around here....You never, ever, swing a bucket anywhere near the cab of the vehicle being loaded.Not only can something fall out but hydraulic systems fail and that will drop the boom so fast nothing can be done,especially when loaded.Operating 101
You hack critics can line up and suck it, the operator was performing as expected. I was an Operating Engineer for 10 years before becoming a pilot, I see nothing wrong. Fuck You all.
You have a fancy term for a Hoe operator theres the right way and the wrong way and this is defintely the wrong way, i load thousands of trucks a month and never swing over the cab I would be fired on the spot and a full load would be a step in the right direction.
k well then somethings realy wrong with that.. i may only be 20, but i have worked around this stuff for most of my life. the cabs may be re-enforced, but not enough to protect it from anything big( ie the bucket or boom. as many actual operators have pointed out.. this is just plain STUPID
@rdw283 its not as much as it appears. That truck looks to be a a25 d model which holds 17 yards "heaped". That truck still has room for one more bucket till its loaded but the camera shuts off. That would be about 6.5- 7 yards per bucket. Still a big bucket so dont get me wrong. We used to fill a40 d volvos that hold 30 yards of material with 3 scoops with a 385 cat excavator. That was a big ass bucket
Greenhorns, loading a wiggly wagon, should almost always be a drive by, looks like they got 40 acres to work with why not use it to advantage, that and the truck is only 3/4 full, grade score would be a "c" at best
ya that definitely was not over the cab and besides that there is nothing wrong with doing that. oh wait for some people the 1 in a fucking billion chance is to much chance my bad ...
i drive a 360 digger like this. not as big tho and the first thing i see him do wrong was slew over the cab.....its just plain common scence that you dont do that
if u watch it properly he's not going over the cab, and a proper driver would no that u can load a dumper that way safley, especialy with the reach on that machine compared to the dumper. wankers
yea that is a huge no no...i watch a guy that changed from his compactor wheel back to his bucket..he didnt get his quick release locked right. when he swung his stick over the truck he was about to load his bucket came off and landed on the front edge of the drivers side on the truck....completely destroyed the hood as well as did some engine damage. if the bucket would have came off sooner it would have crushed the cab and most likely the driver...
@madcatish no dosent wen does the dipper arm come out?? i dnt see it, all he does is turn the bucket out there fore he goes over the cab nt that it's his fault truck driver should of drove in froward's not backward's
@badaztrike depends on wat angle you're lookin. if the boss sees from that one it doesnt really matter. always come from the back. thats why it turns 360 degrees
I have to agree that he isnt loading the proper way.But i dont think he was swinging any where near the drivers cab.I think it is the angle.But he is crowding himself.
whether he swung directly over the cab or not,lumps and rocks fall from the bucket and fly. Ive seen accidents where people have been killed from a rock flying into their cab and killing them. That rock truck is barely half loaded. That guy is an idiot and lucky he hasn't killed anyone yet. By the way i run these machines for 30 years,look at my videos for proof.
Gets the cab of the truck dirty none the less, the operator could swing the other way or park the truck the other way, drive in and back out. With that machine productivity is no problem - this size machine could load 25+ trucks easy!
The bucket is not going over the cab.but next to it.Not the most efficient way to load a truck as you have to crowd your arm back in after you dump so you dont swing over the cab,like he is doing in the vid ,watch it properly!
I tend to agree with MarkHammer. If you look closely at around 21 to 23 seconds, you can see the bucket THROUGH the cab of the artic. And then he swings behind it. When he dumps, he moves the stick and bucket out over the box to do it. I think it was just the camera angle, guys.
And how many job sites, mines or quarry's have you worked in? Ever deal with an MSHA inspectors, they hand out $50,000 fines, or shut jobs down for offences like this! How many MSHA training classes or certifications do you hold? If there were a hydraulic line break on the boom, arm, or bucket, how far will they fall before the hydraulic fuse kicks in, if at all.
Relax, DBB! I was only suggesting that an infraction MAY not have occurred. Reread what I said. As far as mines and quarries - zero. Job sites, too many to count. Same question back atcha, bro. And regarding MSHA certs, that has nothing to do with ones ability to make an observation and comment on it. I was stating an opinion, so don't get so uptight. And yes, I've seen booms freefall when the lines go.
To continue my last messsage, I am not saying that he did not swing over the cab, but that it APPEARS that he may not have done so, but that the camera angle and distance may have made it appear that he did. With that 'high IQ' that you say 'boggles some people', one would think you would have picked up on what I was saying, n'est pas?
One last comment to DBB: And yes, IF the operator did in fact swing over the cab, then of course he should not be within 1000 feet of an excavator, or any other piece of heavy equipment. And I'd trade an operator with a certification for one with decades of experience any day of the week. I've seen some real lousy 'certified' operators. I do have certification as an excavator operator, but if I had to choose between my experience and the cert, it wouldn't even be a close contest, bro.
Thanks, which bike did you like?, I have to clue you in, I was a hot shot once, doing the same in the video. Big JD machine, big bucket W/thumb, JD controls (I was used to Cat)loading a big chunk of rip-rap (concrete). The pile of dirt I was sitting on, well the wall sluffed out from under me, and my load almost went thru the cab, I almost killed a fellow operator/friend that day (my foremans son). The day you think it won't happen is the day it will.
Yes,you took the words right out of my mouth,its a good job it,s not lumps of concrete on the way to the crusher. He look,s like an inexperienced machine driver.
Don't think it was anywhere near the cab - just looks like it because of the telephoto lens. You can see the bucket is moved towards the truck once it's swung over.
The operators boom went right over the cab, if I were the forman on that job, first time I see it, it's a warning, second time the operator will be on the out of work list! Period! Telephoto my ass.

With that 'high IQ' that you say 'boggles some people', one would think you would have picked up on what I was saying, n'est pas?

One last comment to DBB: And yes, IF the operator did in fact swing over the cab, then of course he should not be within 1000 feet of an excavator, or any other piece of heavy equipment. And I'd trade an operator with a certification for one with decades of experience any day of the week. I've seen some real lousy 'certified' operators. I do have certification as an excavator operator, but if I had to choose between my experience and the cert, it wouldn't even be a close contest, bro.

Lastly (to DBB):
I like your bike!

Thanks, which bike did you like?, I have to clue you in, I was a hot shot once, doing the same in the video. Big JD machine, big bucket W/thumb, JD controls (I was used to Cat)loading a big chunk of rip-rap (concrete). The pile of dirt I was sitting on, well the wall sluffed out from under me, and my load almost went thru the cab, I almost killed a fellow operator/friend that day (my foremans son). The day you think it won't happen is the day it will.

Yes,you took the words right out of my mouth,its a good job it,s not lumps of concrete on the way to the crusher. He look,s like an inexperienced machine driver.

Don't think it was anywhere near the cab - just looks like it because of the telephoto lens. You can see the bucket is moved towards the truck once it's swung over.

The operators boom went right over the cab, if I were the forman on that job, first time I see it, it's a warning, second time the operator will be on the out of work list! Period! Telephoto my ass.
