We have one where I work. The thing is a beast and can’t even comprehend the power. We also have JD 755k crawler loader and that’s a force to be reckoned with.
That Russ Co. must be a good old CAT customer. Where is that company located? That old machine looks like very new - they take very good care on it. Very nice catch Allen!
Im not sure exactly where but they must be located in the Chicago area. You are right, nice machines and well taken care of. This was recorded at the same site with the old CAT D9 scrapers.
We have a newer ones with Peterson demo bitter bucket from cat . It will push/ bite whatever you want ,I’ve dragged pushed giant caissons out of wholes, bit giant beams etc !! There getting phased out in demo for excavators unfortunately to expensive to up keep and get out worked by hoes. I still think there valuable but,also hard to find guys to run them anymore with demo buckets with 3 joysticks !
