It's nice to see a contractor that invest in the right equipment for the job has all the attachments needed to make the job go smooth and properly skilled operator and labor to make it work. Not trying to make a fork turn into a spoon. Too many times contractors have a make do and not willing to invest the 30 or $40,000 in the buckets which in the long run ends up costing them hundreds of thousands of dollars. Sometimes contractors think like homeowners what do you mean that thing cost $10 I'm not paying that. Ultimately they pay hundreds of thousand dollars to save the $10
The buckets don’t cost that much. The rotator hat might be up there tho. Buckets were a couple grand a piece. That ripper shank they probably made but either way those are cheap. That tooth bucket probably came with the rotator.
Very experienced operator. He just places the concrete into the trucks and doesn’t just dump it in, saving a lot of wear and tear on the box. The would make a great ditching machine too.
It's interesting to see how other operators remove concrete patches. You're able to do everything with that single machine. Our company uses a backhoe with hammer to pull out slabs and then CAT skid steer to put them in trucks. 👊
Wow!! I don't know how much that excavator operator is getting paid but it's not enough!! This is like watching Michaelangelo paint the Sistine Chapel ceiling!!
Need a second camera showing the operator. I have never seen the controls on this but it is fascinating. I can’t fathom how all those inputs would work.
If you search for Engcon DC3 (not sure what version is used here but not that big difference between the joysticks) you will get an idea of what the controls look like at least. The thumb and index finger rollers are what controls the tiltrotator functions such as rotation/tilt/gripper and other attachments and you usually also controls the motion of the wheeled excavator, like forward and backwards and steering with rollers. They are proportional controls and bidirectional so the more you move the faster they rotate/tilt/steer etc.
@pearlriverfury2884 6"on neighborhood roads, 8" on intersections. For this city. The tiltrotator has ez-oil quick coupler. Can change from attachment to attachment in 30 seconds or less!.
As good as this operator is he shows off a little at 11:47. It would have been really good if he had swept up with the broom too. Really exceptional operator.
@spongaweb Crushers here will take anything other than dirt. They get a little upset. I like to think since all the company's removing bringing them the material they sell right back to us. The crushers can work a little for it.
seems like the areas with big cracks your passing right over and digging up parts that seem fine...i mean i know your just doing what your told to do but seems strange
@@Howioperats-oz3jdIts like that everywhere. They never take out enough. The stuff you tie into usually gets replaced 2 or 3 years down the road when it gets worse.
Who on town council is getting kickbacks for this pointless work? Road is cracked, but not in distress or in danger of imminent failure. Maybe some crack sealing is in order, but remove and replace is ridiculously expensive option.
Great teamwork. I love watching those tiltrotors and the operators that know how to use them.
I’m watching this like I’m 6 years old again. Epic.
Same
Nice work. Great to see that tiltrotators are finally catching on in US, so versatile tool for excavator with multiple buckets and other attachment.

Amazing operator skills my man! Not you first rodeo i see!👍🏻👌🏻🚜🚧🦺

All has to do with the tiltrotator attachment. Thing is a game changer. Makes an excavator way more efficient.
So skillful. You're an artist on that machine.
Hats off to the operator. Mad skills.
You make this look easy
Thanks!
Nicely done!
From a fellow heavy equipment operator (impressive)
Bravissimo molto professionale
This guy is awesome with equipment👍🏻🇺🇸

One hell of an operator there
영상 잘봤습니다 감사합니다👍

That’s so handy how thick are the panels 8 or 6 we have never seen that tool as a coupler in south Louisiana

What place has the money to make residential roads out of concrete
@@dominocweber9763 9 out of 10 subdivision roads are concrete, here in MI
@@Howioperats-oz3jdnow if they could do the same with all the high ways an interstates would be great 😂😂
All those awesome attachments n no thumb?
Why would you have that when you have a gripper built into the tiltrotator? And if you need a bigger grapple you attach one to the tiltrotator.
That operator though!
Is it possible that they have did the road street repairs in the suburbs of suburban Michigan and where is the location of the street.
Yes Fraser MI. One of the streets off Masonic.
@Howioperats-oz3jd ohhh so this is michigan nice work hello from south michigan lol
On this video and where is the Double bi Michigan train dump trailers and I only see the 4 axles red dump trailer.
My boss doesn't like doubles. Our drivers would break something every week!
Usually our dumps won't take oversized pieces larger than 2x2 ft. It makes more work for them on the other end and doesn't fit in a crusher

Spent most of the time moving caution barrels around😂 then do a bandaid because the road wasnt build right in the 1st place.
So wait, you don’t need 10 union guys standing around?
Looks like job security, no storm drains anywhere causing the ground to saturate which leads to unstable ground support.
Was any of that sawn first, or did they pour it with those narrow bits? Either way they’re a handy way to get underneath it. Nice work.
@@jimsvideos7201 Poured with narrow!!
@ Thank you! I don’t know how common that is but it seems like a nice touch.
The base under some of the patches seems poor. The first patch looked like mud with no stone base.
@chrisduprey7283 Was muddy clay. Scrapped an inch. Then added stone. City didn't want undercut...
@Howioperats-oz3jd City of Milwaukee does streets the same way. Could never understand it. Saves a few bucks I guess
Where you guys located
Michigan
seems like the areas with big cracks your passing right over and digging up parts that seem fine...i mean i know your just doing what your told to do but seems strange
It was dumb! City only has so much budget. Couldn't even add 10ft. When should be doing whole streets!!
@@Howioperats-oz3jdIts like that everywhere. They never take out enough. The stuff you tie into usually gets replaced 2 or 3 years down the road when it gets worse.
I guess I stand corrected they have one. With all those attachments you think that they would have a slab crab bucket to remove all the concrete
@stevenbailey8813 We got ours made from a company with Cat uses. Then our fabricator had to change the pin setup to the engcon Q60 pins
Rather watch it real time
The one guy in the beginning is useless he just stands there lol like how does he keep a job with a machine that can do it all
Well they should have spread out the barrels to begin with. If our operator had to move barrels around like this he'd flip out 😂
The concrete failed because there is no rebar in it duuh ...
