A company that stayed tried and true to the original design which was ingenious for working in various and unusual conditions that conventional excavators cannot. I miss the old Warner and Swasey days.
These machines had a black "Gradall" decal on both sides the on the base of the rear swinging unit - the early part of the film has it missing... Great Video - Thanks !
I guess newer excavators are much better but back when I was a kid my father used a Gradall exclusively. He said you can be a surgeon with one compared to other shovels at the time
Great Video, Where did you find this "Classic" ? The Gradall is one of the most Under used machine on the market today. You can do anything with these machine, well all most anything that is LOL
Love these old promotional videos. I want to see the rest of it!

I'm a gradall operator I don't understand why more companies don't own them.
Would an 80's model be any good for clearing land? Will it get stuck easy or could you push or pull your way out if you started getting stuck?
Yes it seems like they're really underrated. Idt I've ever seen them in my area. You would think every small municipality would own one.

I saw a Contactor in Florida use one. Because of the long opening in curb drains. And culverts that were ( U) shaped for under roads.
I love it. I believe that movie is called "Digging for Profit's" When are you going to get the rest of the movie on youtube? Nice video, thanks.
