@@ScenicDriveProductions they worked really well for logging because there’s no radiator in front to get poked and that also gives the operator great visibility…. they sound like an enraged bull elephant coming through the woods.
Interesting point. I didn't pay attention to where the radiator was. Now I just need to find a bull elephant to upset so I can set it loose in the woods and enjoy the sound :)
@@ScenicDriveProductions Look around 0:57, you can see the right one shift down slightly. There aren't shanks there either. It moves up and down elsewhere in the video. Look closely to see what I mean. I'm familiar with rippers this doesn't look like ripper arms.
On both the Euclid and some Terex models those were push blocks , so when double heading scrapers there was something to push on , I’ve seen Cats that were dedicated pushers with blocks on both ends @@ScenicDriveProductions
I’ve never heard of an 82-80, that looks and sounds like an 82-40 which I’ve operated which had a Detroit 8V-71 engine… perhaps Terex used a different numbering desegregation for New Zealand.
I might be wrong but I think the 82-80 was the same or similar to the Euclid TC-12. Someone else might be able to elaborate. I have a video up of these two working together along with a 82-40. The only Terex not at the show was the 82-50 apparently.
From the looks of it , the 82-80 was an upgrade if you will from the TC-12 , I.e. the twin hydraulic rams instead of the cable system , you can see where the winch was located on the 82-80 , no expert on these old machines , just an observation , the old Detroit’s sound good , we still have a 82-71 loader with the 8V71t engine , I have a Wabco with the old 6-71 in it @@ScenicDriveProductions
