It is all about ASS Covering and thats it. Companies hire these green horns because they have a ticket and if something goes bad the company says not our fault the operator was certified.
It is these stupid companies loss they rather have a person that will loose them money. Hire a operator with years of experience he/she makes money.
Contractors I know WILL NOT hire a green horn. You can have a ticket but they will tell you shove it up your ass.

lol – I’m getting the long distance Honey Do list! She thinks I’m at school so I won’t have to ‘deal with my responsibilities at home’.
Yep. Lots of chores coming my way in a few days, I’m afraid…

I went there for certification purposes. It’s getting harder to get a good job at a good company lately, unless one has a little piece of paper that says “I’m an operator”.
I got tired of rookie operators getting good jobs just because they have certification, while I get passed over for the lack of it.
Hopefully it will make a difference.

largest pay loader i have operated is the john deere 644 G.. for about five years.. Nice machine tons of power for farm work.. btw good video!

When your gravel mining you want a loader that digs into a very hard gravel bank. Use a 988 with a spade bucket.
Reliabilty and durability trumps anything else and Cat loaders are it. The mines have tried everything else and they have gone back to Cat. The only closest competition to Cat is Komatsu.
Start producing 2 million tons of gravel a year you need good wheel loaders.

agreed that the operator is slow but I think the hyundai beats CAT in fuel consumption.. Nothing beats Ljungby and Volvo
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
yup i love the cats the biggest one ive ever used is a 988 and it was pretty sweet
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
yea i know i never really liked those hyundai loaders
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
nice video …but why did you went to fox? i mean, you operate already equipment…does it was a perfectionning course?
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
that loader almost sounds electric
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
The loader operator is operating like a grandma. The machine should be bouncing digging into the bank to get a bucket full.
Nothing beats a Cat loader that is for sure.
I guess soon as you get home Nancy will hand you the honey do list lol.

Awesome vid Al. Really slow operater though! cool 5*
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
You’ll be 18 B4 U know it, Willy. No sweat.
Thx 4 the words.
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
Lots more coming later, John.
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
Don’t know about the ‘one arm’ thing, Ron.
I’ll be uploading more later, but it will have to wait until I get home next week, if the wife will let me spend a few hours editing vids. I just can’t do any meaningful editing on this slow ass craptop that I’m using while away.
Fox is a great school; I’ve really been enjoying my six weeks here.

Hey Al, I was just at Michigan Ag Expo 2009, they had a bunch of big wheel loaders: a Caterpillar 924H, Deere 524K, Case 621E, and some Komatsu payloader. They were at this little area where you could drive them and play around in this big pile of dirt. But it was 18 or older only so I couldn’t drive one :’( But they were fun to watch ( I liked the CAT the best) They also had a Komatsu WS250PZ on display. ITS A TOOLCARRIER! I’m a sucker for Toolcarrier!
Go to see another video from ya, Al!
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
great video
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
great video I couldn’t even notice that it was unedited footage. I could watch stuff like this all the time.
July 23rd, 2009 at 8:21 pm
Does the operator only have 1 arm?
Beautiful country you are in, such a change form the usual.
