No joke, probably the best production loader operator I've seen on KZfaq. Smooth fluid movements, no wheel slip, full buckets and fast cycle time without excess backing up. It is a pleasure to watch someone like this operate and is a rare find, even among experienced operators. GREAT video!

Couldn't agree with you more. I was in awe of the operator's patterns. No wasted motion. The bucket was smoothly traversing in three dimensions as if it were the waving hand of a symphony's conductor.

That boom looks a lot like an excavator boom. And a single hydraulic cylinder to curl the bucket. Reminds me a little of my old Michigan 35-A boom. It has a single cylinder on the boom and bucket. Adds to simplicity but I often wonder if it weakens the overall design. But then, my loader is 60+ years old and hasn’t broken yet, so there’s that.

What is the payload on these bottom dumps, compared to an original 773 crate?🙂 Fun to see an operation like this! Super fast both to load and dump, must be the best alternative to a scraper, when possible to use?😁 Excellent video!!🤩

I would imagine ease of manufacturing,less weight, less pivots to go bad,ease of maintenance. Looks like it has better clearance on the truck bedside also. I ran a several different loaders over the years, and there's a whole lot of grease points on the older double booms.

He likely splices in generic audio over the drone video... drone is too noisy to serve as a mic platform.
@ke6gwf2 жыл бұрын
@@physicsphirst191 the audio is in sync with the dirt dumping and the back up alarm, so it's not generic audio. He just also has a camera set up on the ground and splices that audio onto the drone video.
@ke6gwf2 жыл бұрын
If you notice, he starts out with a camera on the ground, and switches between drone and ground level shots. So apparently he keeps a camera running on the ground while he's flying, and just syncs the drone video with the ground audio. If you watch, you will see that the back up alarms and dirt dumping are in sync, so he's actually recording it all.
