I’d like to see you compare both of those machines to a Lamtrac LTR6170T running a DenisCimaf DAF180F or a JCB 325T running a GyroTrac 500HF. Both machines feature a side door and a mono boom. And both munchers cut rather than tear the wood.
Man Allen sorry just getting back with you been a crazy week end lol 😆 but yes the JCB is what dirt perfect and I have been talking about a lot lately we both want to run one! That way we can do a comparison hopefully sooner than later we can get on one thanks for the comment and thanks for watching🤙🏻
@@aaronbummmanbehindthescene4931 I hope the one ya’ll get to try out is the new Teleskid type. Btw, I’m a diy hobbyist welder with a school certificate in welding and loved seeing your videos of your job. It’d be great to see more welding content from you if you didn’t mind sharing some insights. I’m also looking forward to seeing you and Captain get together on a welding video.
I've seen a few other mulchers that have larger drums and use the same teeth that the well drillers use. There more of a point than a tooth. If it does what you need it to do and it's cost affective, than it really doesn't matter. Thanks for sharing.
Only operated one skid steer back in the early 2000's, a Bobcat..... been operating a manual excavator (shovel), manual breaker (bolster or cold chisel and mash hammer) and a manual dumper (wheelbarrow) recently, I found they were fairly easy to use, no restricted vision or access to worry about....... Maybe you could do a review of these sometime 🤣🤣🤣 Looking forward to you comparing the skids Aaron !!!
90% or more of the "comfort factor" is what you're _used_ to using. For me, I prefer a bolt action - vs - a semi-auto because I'm _USED_ to that platform LOL It looked like the tracks were a bit more worn on the Cat, could that have been part of the issue with it slipping in the dirt/mud? Don't take this to the bank, but I _THINK_ it's pronounced Tah-key-oo-chi
Heck yeah A-Bolt for me too but on the tracks someone told me the tracks on the cat or a turf track I guess designed not to tear as much up but yes they are a little worn thanks for watching
Caterpillar 299 and kubota svl95 are the easiest to work on I got both. The smaller units aren't as easy. Bobcat and tachuchi are the worst to work on.
Good video Aaron. The tracks on the cat are multi terrain and the tracks on the Takeuchi are dirt. I like the Takeuchi, Kubota but I prefer the cat for visibility and serviceability. I’ve seen you and DP service the Kubota and Brandon @Elite service the Takeuchi I’m not sure about the 299 but I know my Cat skids are much easier to access for service. But I like all 3 The door is the way it is on cats now to pressurize cab. Very quiet cab. Awesome video Aaron👍 Way to listen to your subs👍I’m really enjoying your channel master welder🤙
That sucks one thing I didn’t mention were the doors yes it is quieter in the cab but if the boom ain’t all the way down you can’t get out which kinda sucks so for me there are pros and cons to both
I operate a John Deere model 325 with the overhead door. When you raise it up, it takes up a lot of cab space, especially headroom, and then block most of the controls. There is a safety switch, which we have disabled, that won't allow it out of the park position with the door raised. We also have a new Bobcat, with the swing out door. They do seem somewhat flimsy.
@@Mark_vanR the kubota it leaves plenty of room it’s another plus to it, I would like to run a newer bobcat sometime thanks for watching I appreciate it 🤙🏻
Kubota or the taco all day. I used to be a cat man but there electronic joysticks are super touchy. I prefer pilot control as you can feel the machine.
Hey Tom when I help LBI I run the takahashi and the kubota with Michael and I really do have troubles picking which one I like better thanks for watching 🤙🏻
@@aaronbummmanbehindthescene4931 you are absolutely correct. Most of the time the operator will not notice. Much if any difference at all. The owner will notice the difference. How often they have to make repairs. I have nothing against Kubota. They are an affordable machine. With great qualities. Where the difference comes in is things like what Mike found. With the crude bracket and things like that. The big reason for the price difference between the machines. Is in time Engineering them. God bless
Aaron, I think the FECON mulcher needs a number increase in the teeth, a higher number of them would speed the operation. The one on the Cat, it's goot a good number but they seem a bit on the small side.
I’ve never ran a skid steer but it looks like it would be fun I love running a trackhoe those skid steers must have really good hydraulics to run those cutters
I agree with you I think I could get used to them all my main thing just my opinion is the doors, with the cat if the boom ain’t all the way down you can’t get out but the sealed cab was nice and quit and the view was good power was there just myself I don’t like the electric over hydraulic thanks for watching 🤙🏻
Hi Aaron. I hope you've been well. Good to see you posting more. Keep on giving it to ol'e DP He loves to give as much as he loves to get. My kind of guys. Always a good laugh just around the corner. Take Care, ASH
MTBS... since you asked... it is supposed to be pronounced... Tawk-uh-oochie.. but most people put the H in the middle. Just like they do when they say vee-Hik-ul. To stay safe... I just call it a Koochie, like everyone else does! I also say car or truck instead of vee-ick-ul! Keep us posted if you get a chance to mangle brush with it!
😂😂 I hear you there and yes when a get a chance I will definitely do a running test and comparison once it dries up a little if it ever does thanks for watching 🤙🏻
I was watching Dirt Monkey look at the single arm skids after DP’s comments the other day. they seem to have much better view areas and seem generally safer seeing as you don’t need to step out onto whatever your attached too.
