2nd day using a skidsteer I got stuck and made a rut and kept digging myself deeper.. I hoped out and took a moment to access the situation. This guys technique of using the bucket to push himself along is exactly what I did to get out 😂
PLEASE continue to do more of these tips and tricks. The track one alone is exceptionally helpful and the others are very useful as well. thanks for making this video!
The curling bucket trick is pretty cool. I don't have quick attach, but I did your other tree tricks (basically, or a variation of them) today with the mini skid. Backed up to a curb and used the curb/bucket to lift the machine so that I could clean the snow out of the tracks. I was using the log grapple and lifting a heavy log. It put so much weight on the front end that the front end just dug into the snow and became a plow until it couldn't move any more. Then I put the log on the ground and curl in as I drive forward, putting light downward pressure and, walah, I'm unstuck. And then I picked up the bucket attachment with the log grapple. So basically did the other tricks haha
I know this is an old vid but I currently use skidsteer track loader and wheel loaders at work but because its commercial landscaping jobs we really don't get as much machine time as you would in say road construction. Can you make more vids on operating techniques please! Really like the vid by the way.
If you find yourself jumping in a backhoe, you can get out of some situations by tipping the FEL and then raising the rear axle up by putting the stick bucket down, then left/right and your rear wheels/cab move out of the mud you were stuck in, or the bank you started sliding down. (just don't tip, esp if you raise front wheels off or because the front axles swivels and doesn't plant the front end). Also, seat belt and pray.
I like the pallet fork trick, but my forks dont have a lip on the back so I cant do that and it suck trying to load fork in a bucket without it. Thumb up if you have tryed one of these tricks
YOU USE THE TILT ATTACHMENT TO ACHIEVE THE SAME PURPOSE AS DOZER BLADE, R U SAYING THE TILT ATTACHMENT IS BETTER THAN DOZER BLADE? PLEASE RESPOND I CAN BUY USED DOZER BLADE FOR 1000.00 THANKS FOR RESPONDING
i just bought a t 190 2007 what can the t 300 do besides lifting capacity that t 190 cant it has same low clearance problem, i see you gettin stuck in mud, i am trying to figure out how make money with this thing for extra money and fun, so i want forks, breaker , and dozer blade, does t 300 have more pushing power than t 190
Ran a T190, second generation, not the first gen train wreck, it was really easy to stick. ASV much better in the sloppy stuff. The high speed bobtach operation was a nice touch. How about showing the noobs, who rent these machines all the time, the no-no's of slope work/tipping points?
showing tricks of the trade brother,,the reason we know stuff like that is because of experiance and we are allways looking 4 a faster easier way of geting the job done..
When you load it on the trailer, the bucket can slide on the forks, also not as stable to strap down. Always load the forks into the bucket, unless you have a slide in fork transport on the trailer that is. (-:

Ditto on the comment below, make a vid on no nos for slope work and tipping points etc etc
awesome, can you do a video on how to get an excavtor unstuck

If you had to choose between tracks or awd skid steer. Which would you choose? I know it depends on a lot but I want to know which you prefer.
The forks trick is gold
Like the fork trick! Thanks
@tractortom401 Thanks! I'll see what I can do.
You got that rite!
A T190 and a T300 have the same ground clearance, I used to have a T190. Yea the T300 can lift a lot more and it can push a lot more.
i love hip hop
In the uk the machine wouldnt allowed to be used. No treads on the catopilars

Tracks. Tracks can do everything wheels can do and more!
Dirt Ninja what about cat walking?
@melbourneSTORM4eva Thank you!
Yea that looks safe *eyes rolling*
Does the second tip “hurt” the skid steer in any way or would it be the same as if the bucket is flat
9 times out of 10 that's how we back drag snow or really stuck down ice. Everything on these machines is pretty stout.

Does that work with a wheel skid steer loader?
Yes it does
BOBCAT SHOULD HIRE YOU AS A SALESMAN LOVE YOUR VIDS SO MUCH BETTER THAN BOBCAT VIDS REAL WORLD APPLICATIONS ANS USES FOR THEIR EQUIPMENT

Why not usethe forks to pick up the bucket??

Thanks man! Send them a private message on facebook for me and tell them that! :) Search "bobcat company" on Facebook.
Couldn't you just put the folks on and scope up the bucket
@1toomanyhobbies Thanks!
common sense
Don't waste time or money buying a dozer blade for a skidloader, they are virtually useless for anything other than snow removal
wow this is silly.
noob
grts graz
If anyone needs to learn from this video they should have no business operating a bobcat
This guy doesn't know how to type!
Well hes not a fkn secretary is he.. ffs.
