As a motograder operator thank you Justin for making a motograder documentary.

Mate thank you for a great video of one of the best graders manufactured by caterpillar, nothing beats a big CAT .

We rebuilt one of those jewels in our shop back in 2015. Next to the 12H, it’s a hulk! I’d like to walk that yard and see all the other iron you have there! Thanks for the review!

Awesome looking and intimidating machine. I've never been next to one but by looking at this one you can really appreciate the massive size of this very important piece of equipment on the mining field. Thank you for covering this machine in your series. 👍

There’s still a lot of this model in operation in my country. They are solid as a rock . Good vid Justin .

Thanks for another outstanding equipment documentary. I learned a lot from this one. When I was in the construction industry quite a few years ago, operators would always say that the hardest machine to operate is the articulated grader. I did not realize just how many controls the operator has to utilize. I would imagine there is a fairly long learning curve to master a grader like this CAT 16G. I’m curious to know if the newer models say 2015 - 2023 feature most of the controls mounted on joysticks.

Great documentary once again 👍👍👍 the 16G... Mainstay of the UK opencast haulroad maintenance...

Bad ass video man!!..does it ever bring back memories!!!..those old 16 G’s were monsters and were remarkably tough!…they were just so power and quick…you could plow off 30’ of road top so quick and they were surprisingly easy to control!…I saw those 16G’s do things that a D8 couldn’t…my hood buddy who was a superstar grader man could rip rock out of ditches with it and he could gravel a road with 22 belly dumps on him!..she never laboured once!..just begged for more!…I ran lots of 14G’s and when I got to run the 16’s it always amazed me the production difference of the two…I can only imagine the surprise an old hand operator from the 60’s running old straight frame 16’s got when he sat in a 16G for the first time!..it’s probably been 15 years since I got the opportunity to run a 16G and if I was offered the opportunity to run one today it would be hard to pass up!..great machine and great video!!

Thank you for producing this video

Another great video Thanks Justin That’s one big Grader.Keep up great job making these videos Thanks.

I'd love to shine a haul road up with that baby but all we had was a 120 but it was a good machine. More than likely I'd be in the old Euc backdump though. You know how it is. And I'd sure like the old school lever setup over the wobble stick stuff now. And a 3406? WOW! Happy week to you and Thanks and God Bless

Thanks for the grader video

Nice looking machine Justin, never been in a grader, yet. That R-50 in the background give Me chills though!

Thanks PA Mining. Heavy Duty!

Very good. Thank you.

Great video and a very interesting subject Which I knew nothing about thank you Keep posting bloke

Awesome!

Looks like a fleet I remember in the 80s behind the house…eucs….A and B model 777s…92s…10s…and at one time wisedas that I didn’t see but the 1st steam cleanin outfit I worked for had cleaned…2 Eucs hit head on in 3rd grade and Remember seein the picture in the paper like it was yesterday….I would stare at the hollerfill watchin em come n go and notice things like the slanted body supports vs the cats more straight ones….we rode bikes with dad right through the lot with iron movin everywhere and was in awe of how many pieces were there I hadn’t seen….man how I miss those days…shots knockin pictures off walls…meant $$$ was flowin…

Very cool Thank you

40 years on one. Best grader there is to this day! H model good but has computer fitted and computers tend to say no! 😂

❤❤❤❤

Excellent as always! Did this machine also have HFWA?

Awesome video 😎 is this one still in service

great video!, this grader looks much more difficult to run compared with bulldozers, backhoes, and dumptrucks as it has 8-10 levers next to the steering wheen then the usual 3-4 foot pedals and 4-6 hand levers to the side, and who the heck decided to put the engine guages BEHIND the driver?? you would screw your neck up trying to read them while in operation! . please do a video on a steamroller, Ive never seen a videon on those. THANKS!!!

It's in good shape

That is a big girl.

cat 16 g ,h graders i operated same models in wa mines in Australia same as cat 16h , m models up in nt Australia mine give me the old school cat graders any day & same as the cat D11R ,D10R,D9L,D9G DOZERS 👍👍

Same year as me. And just like me, Cat equipment has gotten uglier with time. 90's was the last good looking equipment era.

And all of this must be electric within 5 years... Running on 3 lithium 18650 cells.
