All the dipsticks on youtube that got a job last summer for some low buck landscaper and think they can run a skid steer. Finally there is someone that knows what the front of the bucket is for. You cut grade not back drag to grade. That is why there is a cutting edge on the front of the bucket. You are 100% right about carrying a little dirt in the bucket to help it cut. I spent over 25000 hours in a skid steer in my career as a member of Local 49 Operating Engineers. Ran mostly Bobcat and Cat machines. Bobcat with radial lift arms is a better grading machine. The radial arms are better for grading simply because you get much better visibility to the sides and back. Vertical arms get a bit sloppy.

Caps off to you, thanks for the schooling, mad respects. Your videos have helped me huge. Excavator, dozer and skid steer rookie here. Went to work and I inherited a new work tools. And here I am, doing honest catch up and learning.

Excellent video. I'm a relative novice with about 100hrs in rented CTLs. This was always an issue... but I left the bucket empty.

One tip I always give new guys that are trying to do finish grade is to put the heel of the bucket on the ground and just use the cutting edge up and down to grade. I know that's what you're doing but others may not. Great video.

I am a high school freshman right now and I am super passionate about becoming a heavy machinery operator for construction sites. What is your best advice? I want to get as much experience and opportunities as soon as possible! Also you have amazing video. For a career project I used some of the points from your “reality of heavy machinery operating”.

Thanks for the comment brother! I would recommend hiring in at a residential company or even and landscape company to get experience on some small equipment like skid steers and mini excavators. Once you learn the basics you can move to a larger company and start as a laborer to learn the trade while also learning the bigger machines.

would this work on a tractor with a front end loader/bucket or would that rig be to lite and deflect to easily?

@DieselandIron 2 ай бұрын

I don't see why it wouldn't work with a tractor. The more weight you can get in the bucket the more stable it will be grading.

@chedsd2clips465 5 ай бұрын

Wish the skid steers we had on this job weren't so messed up so I could grade like this. Now I'm no pro I'll admit I make a little whoopsie now and then but the bushings and pins are shot on the 2 skiddys we have so the buckets have like 4-6 inches of play in them at the blade. Makes it real hard to do these long smooth passes cause the blade wants to dip or jump on you. Any tips on how to deal with that? other than fixing it cause I have told my supervisor and foreman about it but they dont want to shut the machine down.

@DieselandIron 5 ай бұрын

With any whomped out machine you will have to get to know where the transition point is from being in control to the bucket moving on it's own. You'll have to spend a lot of time playing with that hydraulic down pressure. The more weight you have in the bucket will also help alleviate the pitching and rolling of the bucket pins. At the end of the day, any whomped out machine is a bear to grade in.

@DieselandIron 6 ай бұрын

Thanks brother! This should translate over to a wheel loader with no problem.

@scottmcquarrie7295 6 ай бұрын

Forget a wheel loader, if you want to grade, get a crawler loader, either a 350 John Deere or a 955-977L Cat. If you want to grade with a loader, that's the loader to use . You just need talent.

Skip loader would be better I believe for that

@DieselandIron 3 ай бұрын

You don't see many skip loaders in our neck of the woods and as a result I have zero experience on them. I've found that skip loaders are very sporadic and only used in certain pockets of the country.
