D-10 dozer rescue! Mountain top heavy haul!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 มี.ค. 2021
- One of the few Caterpillar D-10 dozers in Oregon blew it's engine while working on a remote jobsite in the Cascade mountains. It had to be disassembled, then pulled and pushed down the mountain by a few other machines so that it could be loaded on Hartill Heavy Haul's 9 axle and hauled down to southern California

My Father started working for Caterpillar in the 50's, he became a remote field mechanic eventually and went all over Colorado in the mud snow, sides of cliffs etc. He even worked on them inside giant mines. Engineers Pass was a scary repair he related and he was helicoptered in. He also crawled out on the giant mining machines to replace hoses high above the ground (the ones over the open pit mines with the giant booms and buckets that were hundreds of feet off the ground). He was even inside Cheyenne Mtn and worked on the military generators there. There was nothing he couldn't fix in the field. He got stuck in many a place sometimes for days. His skills were beyond none (he could build a shopping mall with a Q-Tip and a pocket knife) and everyone loved him and went out of their way to accommodate any request he might make, sometimes for more help and schlepping even engines into remote places happened, he was personally requested because of his can-do work ethic. I have some fond and scary memories of going with him and as a young lady getting to drive and operate all the equipment was an added bonus. RIP Dad!
Thank you for this. My dad, who passed over twenty years ago, worked for the Army Corps of Engineers out of Seattle. Being fully qualified as a heavy mechanic, he also did a few heavy rescues out at Mud Mountain. Some in place fixes and some recovery hauls. Of course never a video, but oh the stories!
My Dad worked for Cat since the 50s. See above for a couple of stories.
The unsung hero's...Much respect to all those involved in this rescue. Most people don't understand the logistics involved in such an endeavor, as well as the logistic in what's to come...Being in construction for 30 years, teaches you about how things work...Thanks for keepin 'er moving...:)
That's why a narrative would educate all of "us" a little more.
Nothing beats a full scale set of Tonka’s to play with. My grandson would go nuts watching this. 👍🇺🇸
👍 That was an awesome ride. 😀 Thanks for sharing it with the world.
Beautiful truck and trailer set up. Great video.
I worked at CAT in East Peoria when the D10 first came out. They used to haul them away on 3 semis. One for the blade, one for the tracks and one for the tractor. They shipped them on rail cars the same way, blade, tracks and tractor in 3 parts. Well technically 4 parts, since there are two tracks. 😁
Kinda wonder what that rig scaled with the tracks on?
Probably in the 150-ish range. In California we can haul them complete with the blade on 9 axles. But in Oregon it's either pull the blade or use 13 axles
Awesome video!👍😎 Keep up the great work and stay safe out there!❤️🙏
I actually liked the music. I wish we saw how they got the D10 on the trailer though. Great video!
Always wanted to operate one of those big monsters. Raw power
Cool video, you know, other than the over blown accompaniment, and no equipment sound! Todd the retired trucker.
It would be cool to hear some narration and sounds of the equipment. Instead of the music otherwise the video is great👍🏼
This video was originally going to be no music and all narration like most of my other recent videos, but somewhere in the editing I screwed up and erased all the audio. So I said screw it, added the music, and called it good enough
Turn it off - i did :)
Or was the orignal soundtrack to Industrial' :-)
@@CaseyLaDelle I like it just like it is. Awsome pick for a soundtrack ;)
Agree, the Euro-tech music bites.
Noooo, I wanted to see it load :o) Wow that is a big rig.
Great video. No worries about losing the sound track…. we live, we learn. 😎
I know that road well . Love the Central Oregon area well,lucky to have been able to grow up there.
We wanted to see them load the rig onto the trailer 😂
As a former pilot car, truckers of heavy equipment are some of the smartest people I've worked with. At least the ones I met one summer of gippo pilot car-ing.
You guys have to be on it too. But yeh, like you said, they are some very professional guys, unlike the idiots yanking box vans around. Big difference, I learned off road in a Mack DM800 hauling coal. You only got one chance to get it right on some of those roads. I’ve come down off a strip job with my door hanging open because it started to rain, my cousin told me, don’t worry about the truck, get away from it if she goes. Talk about taking the fun out it, that was the day I learned it wasn’t all fun n games. But anyway, props to you pilot car guys too, well done. 👍🇺🇸
@@deborahchesser7375 "unlike the idiots yanking box vans around"
Really late but!
I don't drive truck, never have.
lol, why the hate for van yankers?
Surely there must be a few good ones out there!
Cheers!
@@BitBuhkit some are. A few. But many are arrogant super truckers who can do no wrong.
Dave here nice looking unit 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Great video Casey. 🤙😎
I about fell down when the 9 axle hit the roundabout in the beginning because I recognized it, then pulling up the mountain!! Had to the description and be sure I wasn't losing it, nope sure as heck where I live lol. Sweet set up too, always wondered why there aren't any of those trailer setups used around here more but I guess we really don't have the mega giant equipment need either. Be interesting to know the specs on his truck like if it has a retarder, gear ratio, aux gear box, motor, power, trans, and so on. Thanks for sharing sir!
Oregon doesn't like the 16 tire groups like most of the California trailers have and makes it much harder to permit the heavier weights on them. So up here you see the bigger Tri axle group trailers to pull the same weight as what's hauled on tandems in California.
@@CaseyLaDelle ah 10-4, figured there was a good reason or we'd be doin er differnt.
@@CaseyLaDelle Yeah, I don't know what they call that contraption between the semi and the lowboy but the first thing I thought to myself when I saw it from my apartment window is .. 'My God, that thing has 16 wheels ( two rows of 8 )' the lowboy 24! I guess Hawaii rules are a bit different!
Cool video. Thank you for sharing it 👍👍
Thats badass casey the vid u got of grant takin that corner at 1:00 is sick af
This is bad ass I have a lot of friends that live in Salem and Mt Angel. I really miss Oregon from my childhood days.
Our pass is so beautiful I live just out side of Sweet Home. I sure love the pass in the winter.
I remember those days. I worked between rigging and logging, mostly around strip mines in the east.
Thanks for the show. Good education for this Arm Chair General in bad need of beneficial diversion. I gather your participation was providing 'Scout Car' assistance.
Very good team & very good job
cool video! thanks for posting
5:55 A BURNT FIRE TRUCK?!?!?!!?!? I needed to see a burnt firetruck up close! Maybe get some back story.
Hey Casey !1 Great job with the video !! Hope ALL went well !!
Interesting video except for the grating audio which I subdued to just above SFA.
I got that they used a Deere and an excavator to push it down the mountain.
I was hoping for a clear "how do they get that honking big tractor onto the trailer and for that matter how does the trailer come apart to get it on". I was disappointed. I still don't know.
Hartel's driver sure kept his rig constantly clean to portray the best corporate vision.
Thanks for the video.
Oh, darn. You didn't show the actual loading process. I wanted to see how they managed such a big dozer...
I'm sure many people enjoy the music, but I am not one of them! May we have Casey's humour back in place please?
Watching from New Zealand 🇳🇿🇳🇿
I just love what you do. I done it on a small scale in the construction industry for 28 years as we always had operator’s that were stupid. But I always had a job because of it. Ha Ha
Rescued by a Deere, that's got to hurt. ;-)
That 950k didn't even struggle a bit to shove that D-10 on the trailer, I was impressed with it
Hi Casey. Another great video. I am not in recovery, however I do have to go off road as I do vermin control over here in the UK on farms etc. I have been binge watching your videos over the last two weeks because I have been off work with Covid. I watched a few videos and found something strange, and yes you are about to laugh. Sone of the videos where heavy haulage recovery’s, it was only after a while I realized I was watching Casey’s off road recovery. Jesus you to guys look alike, it makes it worse that you both share the same name. Anyways keep up the good work. Love the snowcat videos.
nice. keep on binge watching :)
Cool cool man love the big shit.
Wow!! I know exactly where this was filmed. Near sisters, Oregon and santiam Pass. Super cool.
Yep, we picked that dozer up in Idanha and it went down to Fresno, CA
great vid ma! swweeeetttt 9 axle! didn't know there were only a few 10s up there... crazy it ships so far away but glad theres work!
I think there's only a few companies up here with 10's.
Why did you leave this line of work I do love your off road recoverys
any idea what was up with the burnt out fire truck?
That happened two summers ago due to wildfires
Good Vid Guys!!
All that BIG IRON around and we have to listen to music like that instead of some huge diesel engines singing a better tune??????? The music KILLED the video....
@@chuxtuff LOL!! I'm deaf from years of running equipment.. Music made no difference...
@@chuxtuff Nothing to hear, engines blown LOL I know what you meant, just kidding.
what's the story with the burned out fire truck.
It burned up in the massive Oregon fires we had last fall
Would have been more interesting to watch the actual loading rather then a truck driving around.
D10 rescue, oohh that poor dodge is gonna get it...
Do you know the story of the crispy fire truck?
Tell us how much it weighs!
What’s the story on that burnt fire engine?
Burned up fighting the Detroit fires
Do you know what happend to the burned Firetruck
Fire cane through and destroyed the entire town
This is the kind of load where you are not chaining the load to your trailer but the trailer to the load. Even when running coil steel the coil would stay put if the trailer got a little out of shape. This kind of load the trailer is going where ever the load is going. No if ands or buts.
I think I know that scale house. Can't remember what city is near but back in the 2000s there was a problem with someone coming by and filling the scale with water and it would freeze.
helo,superbe video,salutation France..
Whew...9 axles.
I'm sorry Casey, but, I just have to ask, why do you seem to have so many cracked windshields?
Have you ever heard of cinders??
@@CaseyLaDelle 31 1/2 years out there driving, and I can't say that I have ever heard that one
@@tommywarren7416 they don't sand the roads here, they volcanic cinder on them. It's 1/8-1/4" lava rock and absolutely destroys windshields
@@CaseyLaDelle I had to buy a complete insurance after I had to change 3 windshield in one month, after that I hasn't got any broken (yet)
hey casey where was the D10 going in southern calif ?
Somewhere in Fresno
@@CaseyLaDelle a hell of a haul and repair bill LOL
They should have just taken it to Warrens house ("Western truck and tractor repair") Lol. That guy is always slammed with work though.
@@kirkpalmer1709 a company in California bought it specifically because it had a blown engine. That's exactly what they were looking for
@@CaseyLaDelle That's understandable. So they can retrofit it to meet the CARB compliance BS in CA. A hell of a lot cheaper than buying a new D10.
Well at least you didn't have to tow it
Why did you leave once they hit the freeway? Why was there no lead car? Why didn’t you show the loading? It didn’t look like they safety chained the dozer down, but may have been the quality of the video and unable to see the detail.
No pilot car was required for the rest of the trip once he hit the main highway. I didn't show the loading or the chaining down... because we had to load it and chain it down. It's hard to film and get the job done at the same time, so a lot of times I miss the main part of the job on film. And yes, that dozer was legally and safely tied down
I should clarify that different roads have different pilot car requirements depending on the size of the load. This particular load didn't require two pilots anywhere on the route, but there were places where it required one in the front, and places where it required one in the back. So I just moved back and forth as needed
What size was that Deere dozer? I wanted to hear that Pete grunt!✌
The dozer was a 950K. That Pete is a brand new carb compliant truck with dpf filter. There is no grunt, all you hear is the engine fan
Nice Dozer! Good looking Pete anyway.✌
Why did he need a pilot if there’s not even a blade on that dozer? He’s perfect capable of seeing beyond him
Because it exceeded the dimensions requiring a pilot for that road.
How come you don't haul equipment anymore and what made you switch to driving a tow truck
I got in a really bad wreck with my favorite truck and while trying to figure out what to replace it with, I came across a deal too good to pass up on a light duty tow truck so I went for it
@@CaseyLaDelle sorry to hear that
said to selve nice firetruck.then saw the nose of it. then i went hmmmmmm got a little warm.lol
👍👍
What happened to the fire truck
I didn't get the fire put out in time..
@@CaseyLaDelle heh heh
???? Curious why not put the engine in up on the hill .
Because I accidentally erased all the audio for the whole video while I was editing it. And don't worry, you're not missing out on any cool engine noises, that's a new carb compliant truck with dpf filter. It sounds just the same as any other late model truck on the road
I'm guessing CAT will do a rebuild of the entire machine. If the engine failed due to the amount of hours on it everything else will need rebuilt as well.
Hej. Video ok 👈 but music scarry 5x👎
👍
Would have been awesome to have some narration
Yeah it would have been. Too bad GoPro's are garbage and ruined it all.
No rescue here only a standard heavy equipt heavy haul job.
Cool story
Other then the silly music the video was good
Nice recovery
Lose the MUSIC please!!!
Then it would just be a silent video 🤷🏼♂️
Heavy
Nice video but not the music
could they of blown the engine in that monster in a worse place..... lol. coming from a construction background i swear heavy equipment only breaks down when you got it in the smallest and inaccessible areas possible.
its engine
Whats your gross?
190k
Probably that peterbilt have a CAT engine 🤔 CAT pulls a CAT 100ton!! On way 👍👍
Cummins. Cat doesn't make truck engines anymore.
@@CaseyLaDelle oohh but here in North of Europe in Finland 🇫🇮 SiZU still sold trucks with a CAT C16 and C18👏👌👌 here the semi-truck pulled a 50ton standard and on doble trailer is 90ton! SCANIA still was a king of road 👏 but the problem on SiZU trucks is a transmission!! On CAT engines both destroyed the transmission (ZF TRANSMISSION) the best transmission for C16 it's a ALLISON 👏👌👌 but on C18 not he broken easily when pulling 90ton or more 🤔
@@jorgefonseca9225 you should see a 72’ Mack DM 800 with a 300 Maxidyne pull 150 ton, pretty amazing.
@@deborahchesser7375 that DM800 just have only 300hp😀😀
For the algorithm
Just started watching. Music is erritating. Would have liked to see how the loading was done. Bye.
You can always turn it off and play your own..
That music was total crap. Give us some info and driving noises please.
Clearly you didn't read the description...
Hmm ... escort service too. Good diversity.
What’s up with the obnoxious music? It has no bearing on the video and distracts from the sounds of the machinery which personally, is the real music.
Read the description
for a heavy, oversized transport, surprised no yellow flashing lights on tractor or rear of trailer..
No strobe lights required on the truck or trailer in California or Oregon
Music is irritating
The music on this one is awful. Just FYI for future videos. Maybe put it on your "no" list.
So hit mute and play your own music
That'll teach them to buy Cat crap, should have got a Komatsu.
Most people call Komatsus Korotsu, we have a local quarry cited by EPA for leaking petroleum into waterways. All of it came off the Komatsu loaders they were running. Cat loader was not leaking anything.
John Deere and Komatsu are cheaper in purchase price but they are not "better" than CAT.
@@bigyellowjimmy, Oh yes they are, Cats are a con.
Would you do get lazy and put a bunch of music in there, come on bro. to repetitious. Natural sounds always rule!
Terrible background music
Then turn the volume down and play your own 🤷🏼♂️
The music was irritating so I hit MUTE
Good job
Really crappy noisy music. Do not like that.
Lose the music! Ruin of an excellent video!
Hit mute
Loose the Extremely annoying music.
Do you not have a mute button??
The nauseating biology additionally bow because rowboat intralysosomally match beside a precious geology. pushy, expensive event
You music fully detracts from what you're doing. Absolutely horrid.
So hit mute. It's not that hard...
@@CaseyLaDelle yup, easy peasy... but ya see... ya lost the opportunity to explain the technical aspects of what is being watched. You know, engage an untapped audience.
@@keithwilliams3935 fun fact, I did exactly that and shot a much more in depth video. But not a single bit of audio recorded. So it was either put it to music and post it, or trash all the footage. Seeing as this was my first video to go big, I'm thinking I made the right choice...
Way too much music. If I wanted a concert I would go some where else !!!!!. Natural sound at least but this is not a place I want to follow if all this music continues.
He said the audio was corrupted so he put music in and uploaded it anyway. Most videos don't.
