  • I train my son that has NEVER operated a skid steer. I start basic and get more advanced. If you have never ran a skid loader- this is how to start.

    I like how you're willing to teach him instead of expecting him to know everything and being disappointed when he doesn't.

      That's why (one reason anyway:)) that I'm a bad teacher. I assume ppl know more than they do and/or have common sense & that they'll remember more than most do. I always feel better when someone wants to take notes. To me, & I've never run a skid steer, everything that Stanley taught is intuitive but it may not be for many.

    Skidsteer/compact track loader is one of the few pieces of equipment I've never run. As far as the machine goes, it's just a minified Cat 977 track loader, but the controls are way different. I think it's great you're teaching the next generation on what you have and what you know best. Keep it up and keep these great videos coming!

    What a great video! I was very lucky to have two uncles with huge farms (1000+ acres) growing up, and as soon as we could operate safely, they taught all the kids - theirs and cousins - to drive tractors, skid loaders, front-end loaders, dozers, and more - Life skills that I now cherish, as these abilities seem so rare in the general population. I even learned to double-clutch in an International Harvester pickup with a very primitive manual transmission. I got laughed at a lot in my early learning cycle, but once I figured it out, it felt great to have the accomplishment. Your son is lucky to have a Dad so willing and patient in passing along the craft. I look forward to his "Son of Dirt Monkey" channel some day

    That was fun to watch. I have plenty of time on a farm tractor but have never ran a skid steer. Interesting that it takes about 30 to 40 hours to get comfortable. I bet that is right to really get comfortable where things are almost second nature and you can start using both joysticks at the same time. Other interesting thing is watching for objects or people or dogs in your way. I stack round bales in are barn every year and inevitably have someone come by to "help". I don't have the heart to tell them they are just one more object in the way I have to keep an eye on when backing up since I am not always sure my "help" has the sense enough to stay away from the equipment or guess my next move.

Ever since I was little I’ve always wanted to work with these machines over our Christmas break my foreman asked me to come in to watch the site and do some chores I’m very glad I agreed…… They let me practice on a cat skid steer and I loved every second of it I’m looking forward to getting certified in it ……Right now I just got certified as an ATV and cart operator ……. The part at the end where he’s getting rid of all the track marks Could be its own ASMR video when I was a spotter I always loved watching the bulldozer go up and down the stretch of the beach getting rid of all the track marks and making the beach look good again at the end of each day…..

    Thanks Stan, you are a good teacher and I hope that your son enjoyed you teaching him. I never operated a skid steer but as you know that I operated from 1/2 yard to 10 yard scoop trams in mining, but any kind of mucking was loved by me. Other than being in the seat, I loved remote mucking the best as it's always a challenge, where as camera remote mucking is the hardest as how are scoop trams had one el cheepo camera that made it very difficult to even see exactly where the scoop tram is in relation to the drift (tunnel), you could see the muck pile but little else, many times the scoop tram would literally get lost, and even lose the signal then more problems, lol. Anyways I really loved your video, it was very entertaining to me!

I am teaching my 14yo daughter the same thing, how to use mowers, skid steers, and drive our farm truck on the property. Nothing has given me more satisfaction in life, and I'm sure you felt the same pride seeing your son begin to slowly become more proficient on the equipment. God Bless and keep it up.

    If I rent a skid-steer to move some dirt and level out the location for building our house, I'd really like it if I had you teaching me how to operate the machine. You stay calm and that helps keep the "student" calm. I remember when I had to learn how to operate a forklift at the factory I used to work on at. My supervisor watched and gave me instructions in a calm manner. If he would've been flipping out, I think I would have gotten off the machine and tell him to get someone else to move the stuff.10 years later, I had to get on a forklift at the body shop and move a pallet full of paint cans and the owner kept warning me not to hit anything or drop the forks too fast. He had me so nervous! Stan, you are such an inspiration! You're a good operator and a good instructor! Thanks for sharing the information. I'm saving the video for future reference!

    Great video, Stan. On a past job I had, I ran a Bobcat 873. Combination hand and foot controls. Hands controlled the speed and direction of the loader, the feet had the boom arms and bucket. It was a bit awkward at first to learn what appendage did what but the more cab time I received, the more comfortable I became. So much so that I could raise/lower or curl/tilt the bucket all while turning at the same time, depending on the task. Backdragging was simple, lower the bucket and tilt it enough where you feel the front wheels raise up a bit then pull back on the hand controls. I've never run an all hand control unit like your ASV, I can imagine it might take more time getting used to, but to each his own I guess. As always, excellent content! Looking forward to the next video.

    I love to run machines. I surprised a contractor who was working with me, with an excavator. he had asked me to do a straight swipe with the bucket along the ground. and apparently, I did it first try... I have also run a skid loader like this. foot pedals for the bucket, so not so fun. I think I would prefer all hand operations, but I ran it "like a pro" so the guy said. and, not to toot my own horn of course, but I have always seemed to been a good machine operator. I own a tractor, a little John Deere 1026R with a backhoe and front loader. its so much fun haha. ive moved hundreds of yards worth of dirt and stone, and wood and Stuff in general around my own property. I love running machines, it seems to come naturally to me. (not to mention I know I am still not an actual pro, but, I figure, give me a while to know the full operations and functions of a machine, and I would be pretty darn good at it the first day.) of course, I do also like to follow instructions, so a spotter would be welcome on some jobs haha.

    Great video. Being of the PC gaming generation, I can hop into a piece of equipment and be comfortable in 20-30 minutes and proficient in an hour or two. I've done this with a skid steer running a 30" auger attachment, a tracked skid steer with a regular bucket, a 8k lb propane forklift, a 5k lb electric forklift, both a 26 and 40 HP TLB, 4 different sizes of mini excavators,a 8 ton deck crane, and a 30 ton forklift. The 30 ton forklift was the only one that took longer than 30 minutes for me to get comfortable in as I was working in very tight quarters on delicate equipment. After an hour, I could pick up a closed soda can with it and set it back down without hurting it in any way. The 40 hp TLB was a fun one. I buried it in wet clay dirt, which is what I was digging and spreading, up past the foot rests. That was fun to get out as I was the only one on the job site. I ended up crab walking it over 75 feet to dryer ground. Ended up just piling up the remaining dirt and letting it dry for a year before spreading it out.

      got a newish RT40 enclosed but no AC.. gosh what a machine! Can't lift/move a 3500Lb Paver Pallet, tops out maybe 2200Lbs, but I can trailer it with a dual axle landscape trailer. Love the joystick controls. Your RT75 has helluva interior.. wow!

      @@Dirtmonkey my old man and a few good operators taught me. For me to learn the controls it was first grease the machine. Cause as u know some grease fittings are easier to get to if u put the machine in different positions. Ie excavators.

    Stan I agree the best way to learn on a new loader is in a snow storm when I got my new loader with joystick instead of hand foot which I had 6000 or more hrs in in about ten hours I was proficient and comfortable with joystick. It took a while 100 hrs or so to get finish grading down pat
