I've fueled many Cat tractors as a fuel truck driver in Oregon, never noticed a tractor like this one with a V-8. Looks like it belongs there--but never saw another. The Cat 660 machine was a V-8, sure was powerful too.
our made me go back time as a child where I lived had water treatment station had to be hiked because city grew heavy machines were to clear and make land planing in place I saw them work with the machines hitherto today I like working sails
Super cool. Makes u appreciate modern technology and cabs with air conditioning. Lol .The guy on the blade would have ate some serious dust. Silica lung for sure.
The CAT 977 track loader with a Petersen demo-bucket was my preferred equipment for demolition, but, that was before the excavators. Now, the excavators are the preferred equipment for all types of work applications. Back-blading was a no-no to my uncle who taught me the different techniques on dozing, he said, it's a waste of time & energy. But, like he used to say, "to each his own" if it works then okay, but if it doesn't,....Oh well fuck-it! '
thats a proper site everyone working, no hse knobheads telling you you cant do this or that, im all for safety but its mostly common sense, for every operator these days there is about ten hse personal stopping him from getting the work done.
I hate too be this guy but who back blades especially in a tall gear, any body that's rebuilt final drives knows the agony of not being able too "side for side" gears because of a backblader. I'm sure its his machine though and he can damnwell do what he likes with it to be fair. rant over, great bid as usual
