  • Removing a bunch of stumps at a job site with the new Caterpillar 305.5E2. I am loading them into the bucket of the 289D to be moved to another part of the property. Like what you see?

    One of the best excavator operators I’ve seen. Precision, no wasted motion. Pluck, turn, drop, move, repeat.

      Agreed! He's quick but not sloppy, most guys I know are either slow or sloppy as hell when they try doing it fast

    Pure pleasure. Small, shallow and no tap roots. Easy money! I prefer to yank the whole tree out at one time. That saves on half the work and uses levearge on the root ball.

      I own a 305.5, I attempted to rent a 325 for clearing my lot for a house in northern nh. I couldn’t find anyone to insure me for the rental so I made the 305.5 work. And it really was amazing what I was able to do. Some rocks the size of a smart car I was able to move and roll away. It will do 99% what a big one will do. Just might take longer

  • @jeffclarke7990
    @jeffclarke7990 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Pine Trees - Nice shallow roots, and a 5ton machine seems more than adequate. I use my 5ton machine to dig out hardwood gumtrees in Queensland. I can guarantee you the effort is substantially more. They have a giant tap root that branches out 5-8 different ways, each about 8 inches diameter. They're like pulling wisdom teeth out.

    Just curious - about how much would you charge to do a job like this? I'm looking at purchasing some land and would have about 1 acre to clear for a homesite. I plan on taking down all the trees, but would want someone to come in and pull the stumps and take them away. I have no idea what someone like yourself would charge though.

    • @DirtNinja

      Much more room in the cab. Such smoother to operate. Good power and speed and much better built in my opinion.

    Thumb seems slower than the Bobcat? Is it just the camera or is the Cat noisier in the cab? Seems like a nice machine

    • @DirtNinja
      @DirtNinja  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Robert Urban I think its the same speed. Havent really noticed it being slower. Its about the same noise in the cab maybe a little nosier. The camera always makes it sound louder than it is. The microphone always picks up weird noises.

    • @Lanninglongarmmowing

      Drew Willmann I see. Cat does make some great stuff. Hopefully its not for copyright infringement or something like that. Its probably because he switched companies.

      Love2boat92 Yes it was. I switched the name because I wanted my own brand. I have a video on my channel explaining why I did it. Search through my videos. I think Cat makes better machines so that is why we switched. Not impressed with the newer Bobcat equipment.

      Taylor W In my state, you need a driver license to even apply for the test, so you still have time to save up for it.
      Get yourself a job, and start saving.
      I bought my first used excavator for under $2000.00, a few years back (before that all I ever operated was backhoes) it was a piece of junk with a ton of hours on it, but it was a lot of fun, and did a lot of work for me.
      Experience on a machine is going to be key in finding a job, and no one will give you seat time unless you have experience. (You can see the problem.) :-)
      My grandson is 10 now, and hes got quite a few hours on our machines, and by the time hes old enough to make the decision, he will have enough experience to at least get an interview.
      Long story short, see if you can get some part time work with a company that has small excavators, even if its just one day a week washing them. If you can weasel your way into getting some one to teach you how to operate one, thats half the battle.
