Done with such ease & precision! You (guys) move your 'shovel' around like moving ZITI with a fork on a dinner plate. Show your kids all the HOMEWORK 'dad' has to do 'on site' to make it right. Your pencil & paper is "orange paint" on the ground w/rulers! Obvious, you've done many of these. Nice that you get your "decompression" taken out on the old tank and compaction of the soil. 'Nice-a-Nice' indeed & Thanks! Sonny

So many just start digging without squaring up the machine. Great Tip!!!

Now there is enough room for an addition to the back of the house or patio. No old septic tank to worry about. Great job.

Smooth operator right there. No matter how many times I see it done it never fails to impress me. I'm hopeless with an excavator but then again I don't do it all that often. Great video👍

It's the DirtBoss 😎 Yeah buddy new system going down installing the new tank smashing the old one 😂 U enjoyed smashing the old one didn't U 😂 Great job as always DirtBoss 😎 and Thank U for the great video 💪😎👍

Great job, in a perfect world, if they pay attention to what goes in the tank should never need pumped out. But it's always good to plan..

Give it the ol 1,2🤠

Great video. Thank you for sharing.

Like a surgeon with a scalpel. Awesome job.

Pretty work Mike. You always increase the value of your customers property when you go out. Can't wait to see tomorrow's video. Have a great day Brother.

Great job as always Got to love a little destruction of the old tank Thanks for sharing Dirt Boss 😊

Always good content

Good video Dirt Boss🤙

My installer bedded the tank on a couple inches of gravel. Three years later and very happy with the job he did. Travis Long in Killeen, Texas.

Nice job. Good video.

that quick coupler clanging around on there had me thinkng you had sub contracted this job out to mr.dift perfect.nice video of a long day but saisfying.its always nice to be able to look at something at the end of the day we have created.keep up the great work

I like how you dug out for the tank. I like digging the half of the hole that's fartherest away from me first so I dont have to reach across the entire hole to get down to grade. With a smaller machine like mine it's just easier to do it that way. Good job. Stay safe Boss.

We used to fill the old tanks with sand and cap it.

Another great job Mikey!

Back on site my people! Always therapeutic to watch a pro like Dirt Boss get it done! No BS short and a professional always! 👏👌🇺🇸🦾

Good job looks like lovely earth ??? Great to see it all taking shape.👍👍👍

Nice job Boss look forward to the next video.

Lookin good man , if I may suggest something... call me and I’ll come do the shovel and pipe work for you and you would never have to get out of the machine lmao 😂, great video brother 😎

a working man and a well oiled machine can really make the job go faster..... as holes go it is very nice. wish I had you Dirt Boss instead of the clown who dug our new property...

Nice job dirt boss the 88 is a machine for sure though the floppy bucket would drive me insane lol 👍👍👍thanks for the video mike

Awesome work mike, that 88 made quick work of that old tank, lifting the old tank up, she is a tough one, thanks for sharing an look forward to the next video. 💪🇺🇲

Maybe you could get some brass bushings for the quick connect on the bucket????? If it could be so easy!!!!!hope so!!!!!

spot on

Looking great Mike looking forward to tomorrow’s progress on the project!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!

You sir are an inspiration for me .I am starting my excavation business and i have learned a lot from u over the last year thank u

Nice work Dirt Boss 👍👍👍👍 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Beautiful explanation and good work. I am starting to study how to install a septic system. You are my inspiration!

Awesome video, love how you explain everything, great job sir

Great job!!👍👍

Great job

You handle those huge machines like Bob Ross handles a paint brush. Amazing work, great vid!

In Chicago we don't have septic tanks, this was interesting to watch.

great job Boss like always thanks for sharing 100%

Very interesting. I haven’t seen one like this!! Thanks for showing us! All of the farm equipment I had was supplied with a whisk broom like you have. I was a stickler about clean equipment. That dirt gets in the pedals (I believed) and starts issues. If you take care of that and keep them clean outside when you have time, grease them every time you use the machine, they will be taken care of (generally) when they are being used! Good habits.

Great job Mike

Hi Mike! When I have to do projects like this....my approach is : I scratch the gras as thin as I can and that gets disposed....If you burry the big gras chunks, they will rotten away and you will have settlements.... 2. my idea of digging those pits is that I first dig out the sides...( as you started) so your bucket stays in place and you do not have to press your bucket to the side wall....then I excavte the middle section... BTW...I have not seen any compacting equipment on this project so far....Do you think that it is enough to slam it down with the bucket?? You can see the result on the end of your dipper...lol Just my 2 cents..... Greetings from Germany!

Great video 👍

Looking good Boss Man.👍

4" pipe, for those ones that make you scream. : )

Fixin to move back to Tennessee into a new doublewide with a septic. Lookin firward to Ridex, special toilet paper and pump trucks once per year LOL!.

Yikes thats rough on the pins

Another great video - and yes, of course we want to see the rest of it going in! Now, you know I have to ask the question everyone is thinking: Did you "wipe" your bucket when you were done???

I just got to say your pretty good dude

Great job Boss man, nice skilzs!!!

clean install 👍🏻🇺🇸

I love the homeowner sitting on the steps, watching, wondering, how much faster can this get done. Poor guy probably hasn’t been able to use his shower or toilets for god only knows how long.

Great work Mike. I'm shocked you found that lateral as deep as you did. That sucker was way down there.

Looks good man. Gotta catch up on the next one

I like your channel. I can’t stand some of these hacks on KZfaq that have no clue wtf they’re doing. Great video

Look at who’s teaching poopy water who is the BOSS!!! Man, that looked like fun.... in a mayhem, massacre, onslaught, attack, demolition, destruction, damaging sort of way. If they made video games that were half as satisfying people would be glued to them all day! I used to play Tank Battle on my Atari. Those tanks shot back at me. And yet, it wasn’t half as much fun... as watching you conquer that poopy slurry box! Was curious... what did it do to you? Was it damaged, and needed to be put out of its misery? Did it have the wrong elevation? Was it under capacity to carry on against the stress of modern poop conditions? Surely, there was something about it that caused you to wreak such havoc??? Such fun... and some people call that work!!!

🔥🔥🔥DIRT BOSSSSSS💪🏻👊🏻

Try running a couple passes of weld on the quick conect it will stop the shakeing it worked for me

Man, Boss, if you lived near me I'd hire you just to watch you work. You're the backhoe Michelangelo.

👍👍

Another well explained video sir. Why not a 36 inch bucket for the 88?

man you can tell youre from new york with that accent lol i can say it cause im from jersey so i have a very similar accent. sweet video tho!

Nice 👍 I’m surprised they ran 3” out of the house. Must be a real old system. You guys still putting in 1250s. ? We can’t do them here anymore.have to be 1500s

Great video Dirt Boss. How many bed septic is that system?

Spitic tank can be a tough job @ times

Would it have been an idea to keep the grass turf to one side and install it to finish off, just a thought mate ,old jimmy,nice job

Being a septic truck driver is a real crappy job that really sucks 😄😄😄😄😄😄

good day. Is there a video of how a septic tank is arranged from the inside? Thank you.

I feel bad for the bucket. Definitely not going to buy a new excavator just to ram it down like that. Hopefully they have a jackhammer attachment or something similar.

Nice work as always, Mike. As a newbie I was wondering though, you (and some other operators I've seen) never use the swing function (I think it's called in English) of the boom to dig at an odd angle and instead maneuver the whole machine to reach. Is there a specific reason for that?

Man your work is outstanding !!!! quick ? we just built a custom home had a 1250 tank installed to D box out to 4 75 ft lines in ez flow. i noticed that our D box isnt really that level, the square concrete top is above grade which i like that i can check those flow adjuster things, etc Is it crucial its totally level?

No outlet baffle? Or just not shown?

What they doing in the meantime for septic until the job is done ...using the camper in the background?

My foundation is crumbling away from water and sunlight damage. There’s a hole about the size of a fist now. Majority of the plaster coating is flaking off. I could use any advice so I can fix it myself. I had 4 masonry contractors to quote me, and they are from 3200 to 9k... any help would be greatly appreciated. I’ve looked on KZfaq and not really happy with the videos out. Thanks again

You need a bigger bucket i'd say...

any specific reason why the new tank is like half an inch from the surface of the yard ?????????

I just discovered this video and was curious, why not remove old septic tank and replace with new in same location?

Don't you want to keep the sod separate from the dirt?

Hello I am doing a pretend project like this for school. Can you plz help me? I am wondering how long this took. One day or 2?? We are also doing a leach field. I just want time estimates to work with

what is the price range for this type of work in 2023?

How much did this cost in total ballpark?

why is the tank sitting high should it not be a foot or more deeper down it looks like its gonna be exposed the whole time the old tank was set alot deeper down in the ground

why leave the old tank?

Don’t you need a plumbing license for this?

This looks like a real crappy job.

Why not just put dirt inside of old tank ...eliminate it all

Sounds like Ray Ramono on a backhoe

Ever hear of a 3 to 4 pvc adapter don’t use fernco unless there’s no other way to connect. Yo need to stay on tractor leave it to plumber

Didn’t cave the bottom it will swamp a bit when you u get melting snows and hard rains
