If I were a big shot at Volvo, I'd be getting my best tech and some funding to take care of Volvo's greatest advertiser! If after the problem is resolved Chris were to say a big 'thank you' to Volvo for taking care of him it would go a long way with myself as well as the over 500K viewers who watch these videos. Some of us have near term buying decisions to make and we'll be watching.

Great work!!! Love how you don't let one breakdown stop you from reaching your goals even if a little more work is involved. Shows what a real professional can do.
I'm wondering if at least some of the issues with the Volvo can be traced to the time you caught it on fire earlier this year (or late last year, I forget). At least the dozer is still purring along! Something happened with the last minute or so of the video, the video was frozen and no audio from about 49:05 to 51:00
@@csnelling4 I don't recall if Chris called in the dealership after the fire or if he fixed it himself. If he fixed it himself, they may not have even looked at that part of the machine this last time.
@@Apittslife I think you're right, at least that's what was _fixed_ at the time. There could have been another wire nearby that was weakened and picked this time to give up the ghost.
Over the weekend I was at one of the lakes here. There was a kid playing in the sand with a toy backhoe. It had a letsdig sticker on the side. His dad says the boy is fascinated with big machines and this is his favorite channel.
This is why we need to push for a Right-to-Repair law nationally. Even if he knew what wire was loose and fixed it, the dealer has to reset the equipment to get it out of limp mode. This is hurting contractors and farmers alike. Oh and it affects the device you are watching this on as well.
Doesn't affect my PC I'm watching on. I can repair it just fine. I know tho, you were talking about phones. To me I never watch video on a phone. No thank you, that's for talking.
Chis, I've spent hours in the cab with you. I truly enjoy watching your videos. I think Volvo should step up and take care of your machine. Make hay while the sunshine.
Thank goodness you purchased your bulldozer when you did! P.S. Hope someone from Volvo contacts you to make things right. You're their number 1 owner/operator, IMHO.
The dozer went down around the same time and its a komatsu Its all the EPA emissions crap they make those companies put on the machines nowadays (i feel old saying that lol) that keeps screwing over machine owners regardless of the brand My company owns a couple Kubotas and a few Deere's with the odd Bobcat mixed in and they all have the same issues
"The good news that branch in no longer in the way" LOL What a frustrating project machine wise for you, that sucks. Looks great, thank you for sharing.
I like the video, good to see you working. I think we should petition Volvo America to have a gentle look at that machine. That marketing guy you went to Korea with and made the 750 video with should have taken some action because it doesn't look good.
I know you can’t delete the DEF crap if under warranty but I had to. I was going broke fix one thing 3 days later light on same code DEF. $5000 here $1500 here then finally $3500 to make it all go away and I have a good dd13 with no problems no limp mode no regen better fuel economy more power
What sets Chris apart from others is how when things take an unforeseen turn, he knuckles down & finds another way to get the job done, rather than sitting around. I hope Volvo gets your 220 fixed ASAP matey.
The more I watch you at work, the more impressed I am with your finished product. Mesmerising to watch it evolve from nothing and or broblematic to done.
That job sure seems cursed. I guess the video freezing at the end is just another sign that this job has a hex on it. Just praying the dozer did not go into limp mode. Must say even with the troubles, this job is turning out beautiful. Would never have thought that breach could pack so sweet like that and that front slope is looking awesome. Great job, great operator, need to find the energy vortex that is killing the machinery. Call the Ghost Busters!!!
Thanks for posting all these videos! I am 62 and just went and bought a brand new Sany 35. I have rented small backhoes in the past to do projects around my house. I have 3 acres that abuts a 10 acre pond and I am totaling enjoying myself clearing some of the property, making paths on the edges for a walking path. I want you to know you and your videos have given me the confidence to take this on! There nothing like getting into the cab, playing good music and creating something from... well nothing. Keep them coming Chris, your one of the good guys!
On the plus side, you've managed to give us all a practical lesson on why excavators are better at moving dirt, and all the ways a dozer can be used efficiently in one convenient video... not to mention the skookum slot dozing at the end.
Chris you did a great Job on this project. Hopefully the extra soil you added to the older part of the dam will make sure it doesn't bust down the road. The client will be super happy with this job.
I would be getting the software to run diagnostics on a laptop for that digger ,you can then plug in see if you can clear the fault ,or see how serious it is ,this stop start machine needs something Hope you get it sorted ,and if it's that emissions stuff ,it's time to take measures ! It might be a Monday to Friday machine ,doesn't like working on the weekend 😀😀
Very fortunate you've got the dozer as a backup for sure. If it's any consolation, the job I used to have, the company bought a brand new CAT 336FL excavator. Ran great, no issues. Suddenly at 1000 hrs the DPF light and alarms came on saying it was clogged and it forced a regen. Then it shut itself off. Restarted it, ran right back to limp mode. CAT came out and said a sensor was the issue. Needless to say about 5 calls later on it got the entire system replaced and was down for 3 months while CAT argued with warranty stuff etc. Very frustrating for my boss that just spent 250k on a new machine to barely get any use out of it. Before I left there it did it again at 3k hours. Moral of the story emissions is junk.
Man, the change on this pond has been just incredible! From "couldn't even see it"... Way to go, man! Cripes, that's starting to become kind of a joke at this point, thing spends more time going into limp mode than it does working. Maybe you can find a 1970s or so excavator to re-build, give the old Link Belt another shot? At least it didn't break down every other day for a week!
Yeah businesses get subsidies for using heavily regulated emissions friendly equipment. But it breaks down a lot and doesnt really pay off for private use. For personal use its always best to use older stuff that doesnt break down as much and is easier to repair, I've seen gears and shafts on old school stuff snap in half get just put back together enough to make a template for machining a new part. New stuff is too intricate for even that.
I'd say as of now the 220 is on double secret probation, any more problems and it's time for the late night talking to yourself to start. Whether it's your truck or equipment, when you can't count on it to perform it's not worth a tinkers dam, and those Benjamins and Ulysses stack up way too quickly!
Sure could use some help and the skid steer tracking it in as you add more material Chris! I hate seeing you as a one man team! You already work too hard brother! Looks good brother!
For awhile there I thought we were having another Animal Hospital situation, left to yourself you can accomplish anything, having to wait on others is the problem. Yet another show of workmanship.
Chris - thanks for teaching those of us that don't operate heavy equipment for a living what/how you plan to solve the dam problem - along with many other challenges you face each day. I find your videos both educational and entertaining. Hopefully Volvo will come to your rescue!!
Kind of ironic he is giving this owner his pond back while on another site he must take another very nice pond away from an owner because of dam issues(no pun intended)...
Hi, have enjoyed you videos and work for a while now, it would be good to see some photos of the ponds a year or two after they were finished, if possible thanks
Did you remember to leave a bar of soap for the fish when they use the bath tub? On a serious note it would be really cool to see a pond you did a few years ago and how it looks now! I really enjoy your videos your a delicate surgeon with that excavator.. incredible
Sometimes you start to wonder if a jobsite is cursed! Pond Dam that fails is resisting all attempts to rebuild it. You may end up revisiting this one at some point Chris!
That damn tree jumped right out in front of you. Ya never know what those dang things are gonna do, seem to have a mind of their own at times. 😄 Also, it's the trees fault yer machine died again!
👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🗽🙏🏻 Can only imagine your frustration with the Volvo. Bulldozer steps up to get dam finished up for pending weekend rain, dam looks great👍 Try to have a nice weekend…maybe have a couple of beers and a pizza👍👍👍
That's what's strange about old farm ponds. They throw just about anything in the dams to build them up. Trash, concrete, plumbing, old refrigerators, livestock, husband's or wives. 😆🤣😂😹
ahhh frustration my old friend, always testing my patience when things seem to be going well .I used to break stuff but I was running out of stuff so I just remember breaking stuff now .Time to go play with your dogs,it will make you feel better.
Chris you made your dozer act like it was a D8. Wishing you that your baby will be fix quickly. Hope the rain will light . So the pond can be finished to your standards. Have a beer or two and have some fun with Winston.
I feel your pain chris....seems like every new machine my company has gotten ends up with EGR or DEF issues or sensors goin out around 500-700 hrs and again around 1500-1800 hrs Thank God for factory warranties i guess
You should get a camera that mounts on your hat, more of an operators perspective. Though you do get tossed around in that cab a lot so motion stabilization would be a must.
Man I hate seeing the 220 go down but you sure did an amazing job on the dam with the dozer! I can only imagine how pissed you are, let’s hope they get it fixed right when they come out! I know it’s going to be warranty work but people don’t understand you still lost money by having to use the dozer , a lot slower process! Good luck my friend, it’s still quality work Chris! You’re the man stay safe and positive brother! I imagine everyone is disappointed along with you! Thanks for sharing brother! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Chris I enjoy watching you operate it has giving me some ideas on how to improve my skills, but I was wondering how did you get so good? What is your background in this type of work ? Did you start at an early age an just worked your way up ? How would I go about getting started? Thank you
If I remember correctly from one of Chris’s older videos , he learned how to operate heavy equipment at a very young age. His grandfather owned the company before selling it to Chris’s Uncle John and Chris would sit on his grandfather’s knee while his grandfather was operating the equipment.
When the video stoped at the 49:00 minute mark I thought , Dozer has thrown a code and Chris has thrown the GoPro.
Just when you thought🤔Sunday couldn’t get any Better, we have a letsdig18 video to Watch.🍺🍿

@@csnelling4 I don't recall if Chris called in the dealership after the fire or if he fixed it himself. If he fixed it himself, they may not have even looked at that part of the machine this last time.

If memory serves me right? it was a wire related to the AC/Cooling fans.
@@Apittslife I think you're right, at least that's what was _fixed_ at the time. There could have been another wire nearby that was weakened and picked this time to give up the ghost.
