This is what kids out of High School need to be learning. By the time you’re 25-30, you could be making six figures in your own business … easy! Technology is making things so much easier.
Nice to see a video, it feels like it has been a while. Our blower is hooked up to the tractor and waiting for winter not to come. Soon you will be posting snow removal videos.
Hi there, do you still have full depth control on the joysticks? As in are you just using visuals to set grade? The machine does not bottom out at set grade?
There are two ways to reset after the machine moves, with a laser you would swing your boom mounted laser receiver thru the beam, or you can use a touch point system. Touch a spot before you move and touch the same point again once the machine has moved
What Hatya05 said is correct. You use the laser or you can use something called touchpoint. I have older videos up that show how both of these methods work.
correct or just something solid like a rock or stump that you can touch, move and then touch again. I have a video on here on how it works do a search on my channel for touch point
What is less to buy a bobcat e 50 or a cat 305.5e2. My company is getting ready for a new excavator. What is less and which one would you go with? I know you have operated both so you seemed to be the guy to ask about this
Snowplow 364 bobcat is cheaper but run both you will find one thing very fast the e50 is SLOW the new bobcat excavators are extremely slow if you run the cat and hop on the e50 it will feel like your runing a touch higher than half throttle. Don't get me wrong the bobcat is a good machine but if you are at all concerned with production don't get a bobcat. Things to also note cats cab sucks it's tight the doors windows rattle so on. Bobcat has a very nice cab more room etc. Bobcat will develop leaks after 500 or so hours(i may just have gotten the short end of the stick because every bobcat I ever ran leaked even somedealer rentals with less than 100 hours on them) my experience with cat is they tend to stay dry. But if I was in you i would also look at kubota , case, and yanmar ,takachie (spelled that wrong) mini x' s good luck in my opinion case is the way to go fast simple no frills reliable.
Oh forgot to add deere and hitachi make some strong quality mini x's if your not big on cab space. I'd check out a cx60c from case or a cx57c. Also deere/hitachi have very good aux hydro' s so if your going to be running a hammer a lot or a muncher head etc you might want to look at the deere twice.
Vasiliy Dronov thxs so much. Now all were going to use the excavator for is road and driveway repair. Land clearing such as trees bushes and rocks or completely redoing a backyard. Then we might be getting a hydraulic hammer for it as well. We will probably go with bobcat however I still don't know. By the way this will be our first excavator. I'm also just a 14 year old boy who works with his father. Plus I have a my name in the business. So as people say I have to make sure my dad and our employees are doing the work right. I have run almost every type of equipment but an excavator. I have been operating machines like Dirt ninja since age 4. Again thanks
Trimble is a cat product isn't it? Have you seen the iDig system? It has valves that interface with your machine, it cuts the grade itself. You basically just point the machine in the right direction.
No Trimble is its own company. I have seen the iDig system. This trimble system will do the same thing with controlling the functions of the machine. Its an upgrade though that we didnt get yet.

Masterful use of technology to add efficiency to your work. A+ video. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!

Ive been super busy. But i have a ton of videos to go up I just dont have time to edit them at the moment
I am curious about that tilt system along with this Trimble set up. Is this a certain model of Trimble so i i can call for pricing snd what not
Can this be used with a 2022, Cat 299D3 Skid Steer?
Hi there, do you still have full depth control on the joysticks? As in are you just using visuals to set grade? The machine does not bottom out at set grade?
I get how it controls depth after a benchmark. What happens if you move the excavator? Do you re-benchmark or use the external laser for reference?
There are two ways to reset after the machine moves, with a laser you would swing your boom mounted laser receiver thru the beam, or you can use a touch point system. Touch a spot before you move and touch the same point again once the machine has moved
What Hatya05 said is correct. You use the laser or you can use something called touchpoint. I have older videos up that show how both of these methods work.
Dirt Ninja so the touch point could be a spot that you have already brought to grade correct ?
correct or just something solid like a rock or stump that you can touch, move and then touch again. I have a video on here on how it works do a search on my channel for touch point
Dirt Ninja touch point
So by of using that trimble earthworks or whatever it cells, have you been knowdesting if it's makes things a lot more easier and faster.?
Do you have any snow removal videos this year yet know you have had snow buddy?

So what does the computer need you for? I think it wants your job!
haha, I cant wait till the day I operate my machine from my couch at home!
Do you still catch yourself trying to double check if it is making a mistake?
Haha yes. But I dont know why... its always correct!
How much and can you use it on rental

So not only does it save you a worker it also saves you time. Seems like a def money saving device.
