I started running a dragline at age 15, a Bucryus-Erie15-B. I worked my way up to a 38-B and then a P & H 1055. I was taught a an early age to work off of the front end of the tracks so you can always back up if the ground you are working on starts to slough in to the water. Also you get better lifting ability that way instead of off of the side.

True that! That operator he gaad his tracks wrong positioned.

100% agreement on that, that's the way I always operated aspecially digging sand out of water.

In the operators defense, if you look at the left side of the pile, you can see where he was previously working off the end of the tracks.

I ran a NW 95 for a number of years. I am guessing that this Operator is digging down about 25-30 feet so he has a pretty long slope in front of him. However, I always liked to keep my tracks perpendicular to the slope so I could move quickly if I saw the bank eroding.

@SilverStarHeggisist 3 жыл бұрын

Looks like he doesn't really have much room to back away from the bank. So he might be that way because he has more room to move perpendicular to get away from the part of the bank he's currently on.

@@SilverStarHeggisist - I understand that tracks distribute the weight but it's a sand quarry. That's loose stuff. Where I live the quarries use floating dredges and pump the sand ashore. Maybe this quarry has other stuff in it besides sand?

Enjoyed the video. Just a bit worried as to how close to the edge he was, the water was lapping at his tracks at times, and as we all know sand has a funny habit of giving way without warning. Although he was getting that bucket up some distance out leaving a sort of bank under the water, but with the engine vibration, throwing the bucket, and then the pull on those tracks near the water when he was reeling it back in - well I don't know. - All I can say is I hope he was a good swimmer just in case.

cnote4461 he was excavating the sand that had been dumped over the edge from the previous company that owned property. They didn't have enough room to pile excess sand so we were hired to extract the previous processed sand.
