As a construction inspector I watched a dozer hit a big rock only it turned out to be a mastodon bone. It was fun watching paleontologist dig out the rest of the mastodon by hand. The area was closed off to construction for a couple months. This was at the Diamond Valley dam in Southern California.

It's hard to grasp the size of these machines from videos. There's nothing like feeling the ground shake when one starts tracking towards you

I love operating any big dozer or even a wobble stick backhoe. Really, anything that has to do with working in the dirt. The smell of new cuts, either rock or soft dirt, just makes the work so much easier. And having control of a machine that big doing the work just makes it that much better.

Ain't nothing like backing up and hitting that one rock we didnt see damn near break your teeth if your shoulders close enough to your chin...yall operators know what I'm talking about 🍻

I've done it as well successfully and no equipment was damaged, my D-11 was very productive. Theyre built CAT tough. 😎

I was glad to see a very serious roll bar. A kid across the street went to Cal Tech for an ME , spent his life a Cat. in Peoria. I think he mainly did gear train calcs.

No solo es la máquina, si no también el tractorista, se necesita mucho conocimiento. Excelente profesión.!!!!! 🙏

Some 20000h of this.. then fresh paint and RB for sale/auction, good as new... I can't even imagine how rough times these machine go trough. That kind of fight with hard rock "24/7" really do wear stuff out..

Super vid thank's for sharing. Like the Cat's.

Watching that D11 work. Made me realize that I really don’t understand just how powerful they really are. Plus that operator is one lucky man

The D11R weighs around 230,935 lb (104,750 kg)., carries 388 gallons of diesel, and requires 28 gallons of engine oil. Its about 28 feet long, 12 feet wide and 15 feet tall.

Ripping hard rock is tough on man and machine.

It is ripping rock as a piece of cake. Mega strong.

Some Dynamite would make y'alls life a lot easier 😄

Poor D11, needs to become friends with AnFo

Is that a hydraulic actuated quick release for the shank?

that looks like some good New England farmland right there

أنشهد إنك عز وانا أتمنى يكون عندي واحد مثلك نفس الحجم وجديد

IMPRESIONANTE, NO HAY CON QUE DARLE.

That was good to watch!!

هذه الأعمال شاقة جداً اتمنى لكم السعادة

Great footage, working real close gotta know and trust your fellow mates, love the single shank!. Why the u dozer and backing up 4 million feet for not a load?

Beautiful machine

Bonjour. Vous ne recrutez pas ?

I was really expecting someone here to be a D-12 operator.

This is on counter? Это в какой стране?

Need to blast that crap

O,would never get bored of beating a machine like that.

OH THAT RIPPER!!

So glad I am NOT a mechanic on this site! You'd need a full time person ordering parts and a very high budget.

Well that was fuckn exiting

Are job positions available with you?

They're maintaining it... That undercarriage and those grousers are like new for an R.... Agree, not sure why its deployed to do that difficult rock work, just blast it and let it push it!!!

Ma in Italia non ce ne sono di queste macchine?

A big dozer likes a foot or two of material to run or rip on, try to leave a bit under your grousers don't polish the rock it makes dusty work ,keeps your butt on the seat .Good vid....

Playback at 1.5x speed so much better.

What a machine

Cat D11 King of monster

this is normal blasted material, blasted rock will lock together, depending on the amount of powder $$$

Αγαπητοί μου φίλοι είμαι χειριστής μηχανημάτων αλλά τελευταία σε ένα μεγάλο εργοτάξιο φέρανε μια τεράστια μπολτοζα την ονομασία είναι SD 90, πραγματικά θυριοδεις μπουλντόζα θα έλεγα ότι είναι ένα παρόμοιο με αντιγραφή της κοματσου το 475, έμαθα μερικά στοιχεία είναι 106, τόνους και 900αλοηαπραγματικο, θηρίο αλλά κινεζικής εταιρείας επειδή ήμουν χειριστης στο κατερπιλαρ d11,, μπορώ να πω ότι δεν έχει να ζηλέψει τίποτα από την κοματσου και κατερπιλαρ αφού είναι ένα πολύ δυνατό μηχάνημα οδοποιίας μπράβο στους σχεδιαστές της Κίνας με αγάπη από Ελλάδα τέλος αγαπητοί μου φίλοι,,,,❤❤❤❤❤

Had a quick go of one of these in Cyprus, you can not see shit, takes a lot of skill

Pretty soft rock

Puro poder, un saludo

Imagine our ancestors doing this shit by hand....

Just the weight of the Dozer alone is fracturing the ground below him when he rips

We have D10R’s where I work. Some day I will have my shot

RIPPING ANG FUCKING THE ROCKS

كات بلير المدلل امبراطور اللٱت الثقيلة بدون منازع

A maior que vi foi uma D8 na empresa que trabalhei

Вот это мощ 💪💪

Some power that

Tug a war with that thing

Tem trabalho aí para mim

Сколько расход, там баки наверное по 1000 литров

230,000 pounds, and torque to the moon. the only thing that would make it better if this was by "jack", as in "jack the ripper".

❤

I did this in Alaska on a D9R

Beast

Big dozer~

Oh my broken and busted back and neck! 😂🤯💪👊

Bom dia

> lap...

وش أفضل هذا ولا كوماتسو 575

Probably need to blast that... need a bigger excavator as well

Had ripper snap off on FD 40 while scarifing frozen sand

How can the driver see anything he is doing.

Must have been before explosives were invented.

ever hear of blasting?

O makinayla öyle çalışılmaz yazık makinaya riperle bolca bas bıçağı sonra al al götür eskavatore

Larri Barry, Amigo todo lo que dices son palabras tecnicas, no ablas nada de la operacion del equipo, se mas umilde. No te la des de agrandado, en el serro se ven los gallos. Tu eres tecnico mecanico, ho operador, Yo tengo 27, de operador polifuncional, tanto en cat, como en komatsu, case y otras, gracias.

Can you imagine if you put a 1500hp Main Battle tank engine in one of these things? It’s crazy that something 1/2 it’s size has twice it’s horsepower. But this thing chews up bedrock like butter. I wanna see someone build a Dozer around a 1500hp engine. See the carnage.

😎❤👍

Bele bir sarp kayalık benin var bu Dozer elime geçse de 50 saat çalışırsam 20 dònümlük tarla çıkar

Power full.good dozer .d11n.diesel dring go go..1day .500.leter

WHO THE HELL IS TAKING THOSE PICTURES.........

Huzur veriyo

She’s got the weight and the horsepower,,, why put such skinny little tracks on a d11 ?? , I mean it’s a d11

So much power in that machine. Shame to use it up in that manner, would be simpler and more environmentally friendly to use explosives. Why burn diesel, use oil and grease, when a few well placed sticks of dynamite would do the same thing?

Yazıkki o dozerci öyle hirpaliyorsun biraz bilinçli çalışmalısın

why do so many anti fuel burning vehicle people watch videos about them

Prrrrrrrrrrrrr

Hold the camera still shakes the clown

🦂🦂🦂🦂🦂🦂🦂🦂كنه عقرب👍

Bird dog and all the others that say blasting is easier. Too right. And I would add, 50% or more times I see a dozer on a job I think, that could be better done with another machine.

BIZ RUOCh KAT 385

Эксковаторщики вообще мёртвые..еле шевелятся

Would love to drive a bulldozer all day

No then they would say man this job blows 😆

1 muj kah. 10 ore. lufte me guririn.

P

giant bulldozer

Ездить научся не просто так нужна практика

WHY ARE THEY DOING THAT to that poor dozer It was built to push snow ain't ever going to keep up with that kumamoto

These are dangerous machines. Nice video but it should be age restricted.

Nothing impressive

Boring!

Used operator hasn't a clue what he's doing looks like a beginner

Bom dia
