Thanks PAmining for putting together another superb video. I have been a fan of the DEMAG brand for a long time. I believe it was DEMAG that really pushed the boundaries on large, mining size hydraulic excavators. The company was also involved with the development of ultra high capacity mobile cranes. DEMAG was responsible for many technical advancements in both the excavator and crane fields. Probably the only negative comment I heard about their machines, was the cost of parts.Supposedly the cost of parts was much higher than some of their competitors - such as O&K.Getting back to your video doc. , I appreciate that you went into a lot of detail, about this big DEMAG backhoe. I’m looking forward to the next video. Take Good Care.

You're very welcome buddy! Demag was a pioneer of hydraulic excavator development and actually the developer of the first 360 degree rotation hydraulic excavator. The only reason II can see Demag may have been a more expensive excavator to run is because they prided themselves with developing a machine that could run on a single engine instead of two. Twin engine power was an O&K concept, while Demag favored a single engine which did increase cost. That being said, I think any European machine was and still is, expensive to run. We have a Liebherr excavator at work and we're constantly paying to overnight parts from France. Cheers!

It blows my mind how many old machines are still running in PA. I guess we’re really hard on our machines in southern Indiana

I don't know I've seen plenty of old 1800s and 3500s down there lol. Thanks!

Thanks for this video. As always very interesting. Demag is really legendary machines. They have been making hydraulic excavators since 1925, amazing experience

I miss Demag and O&K equipment but Komatsu has gone well and Cat would have to buy up an established outfit to get a workable model for the BIG stuff. Thanks, Pal and I see you got your comfortable clothes on. God Bless ALL Yall!

I am kind of surprised that this machine does not have that large of an electrical system to run all the work lights without needing a standalone generator. Sounds like there could be a story behind that?

@@brianw8963 That was a good one. I have to admit when I first read your comment it went right over my head. I just assumed that you meant Hitachi. I’m thinking that maybe the early DEMAG excavators didn’t have effective, high capacity fire suppression systems on board. Take Care.
