Tier 4 Final...
Whether you love it or hate it, it's a hot topic in the industry.
Aaron and the BuildWitt crew visit Quinn Cat in Southern California during this vlog episode to talk to their folks about repowering machines to meet the Tier 4 emissions requirements.
There are more than a few CAT scrapers in this episode. And not just the ones being worked on in the shop at Quinn. The guys visited a job site with Sukut Construction where they got to have fun photographing their 657 scrapers hauling TONS of dirt.
Aaron explains why scrapers are a great option for mass earthmoving and also why it seems that Southern California is some sort of Scraper Mecca.
Believe it or not, he actually explains how the air coming out of the exhaust on one of the Tier 4 scrapers is actually, in theory, cleaner than the air going into it, in Los Angeles County.

@TechGorilla1987 Жыл бұрын

DEF is one of the most corrosive liquids ever. I used to install and maintain DEF systems. Every fitting, screw or part needs to be either plastic or medical-grade stainless fittings. Anything else will be destroyed in short order. It also creates SHARP crystals that will slice you right open.

I said this once before and I am going to say it again - your audio recording (considering you film outside in construction zones) is absolutely pristine. Not a shred of wind noise. No LOUD music that makes me dive for the volume button. No stupid opening or closing on the videos. Just great information recorded in a VERY professional manor. I'll probably still be here when you hit your first million subs. Whoever maintains the audio levels in the final edit deserves a raise and should consult with a LOT of the larger channels to get their audio under control - I'm looking at you HeavyD Sparks - your audio is a$$.

Just take a look at Central Illinois. Things have slowed way down for this part of the State and Caterpillar. I lived here when the Russian oil line was dropped overnight. It was always eerie driving through Peoria and seeing half built factories. Most of the concrete pads and steel were in place. The failure of the Russians in Afghanistan, along with Reagan wanting nothing to do with the Russians, other than to drop the wall. You nailed it when you said the 80-90's were our greatest years of this nation. Let's hope there are a lot more people like Aaron not willing to accept that fact.
