Yep if there is anybody on YT that will make proper use of a Mecalac its V-belts son

Well..... Now i know .. It's always nice when nifty and hard-core come together... May you and Eric have continued success and support..Happy for u all..

Hard work pays off ol' son! Good to see you and your family doing well.

the amount of weight that machine can handle vs how compact it is, thats unreal! really impressive

Thing is a beast, love seeing all the machines and rigs you got here local! See them all over town!

Congrats. I have an MCR 8. Mecalacs are great machines.

She’s a beast!’ Happy you found a dam good rig for the Buisness my man!

I think this is an excellent choice for your kind of work regardless of being relatively expensive this machine is a "one man band" and should save you a lot of trailer hauling time say where you needed an excavator and loader. My brother bought one around 1985 (in UK) and said it was the best move ever because it made marginal jobs profitable to do and that made more work available. DO NOT skimp on maintenance $300 service will save you thousands. Some of your sound tracks are an assault on my "old ears" but we are not reviewing the "music"!

Cool machine. Was just looking at them at the volvo dealer the other day. Glad you're pleased with it

You guys have some cool videos , but this machine with the grapple …. You have my attention now!! Was just telling my old man about this setup saying I’ve never seen anyone with this machine and grapple combo ! Well now I have . Love it!

Aahhhhh this is our dream machine. Congratulations! We will be watching closely for your experience with it

Glad to see this. I tested one recently with my boss and we were hesitant. But i sent him your vids and were purchasing one next month!

Wild machine id love to see more people running them. 👍

I’m looking forward to the heavy use and feedback on this thing. Good company and channel to put these through the paces.

Nice video Sam ! Here are a lot of Mecalac’s almost every company has one. It’s a very universal machine 👍🏻

It’s a great piece of kit, since you guys are doing a lot of forestry work maybe you should look at the Menzi-Muck spider excavator also, they’ve got a hydraulic flow that’s mind blowing…. Mecalac comes from Annecy in France, and Annecy lies by a lake (lac in French) thus the name Mecalac, lovely place by the way.

That is sick my dude. What a weapon! That is my dream setup right there! Keep it up man, your my inspiration for sure. Thanks for the videos!

That’s a badass machine. The rotating head is killer.

219!!! I drove my 5.9 over Eisenhower Pass and was at 225 and about flipped out (pulling 15 K). Local guy in Utah said , nope, normal. At home I'm at 600 ft elevation and NEVER see 205.Drove a friend's 5.9 dragging a jeep and saw 220 up to Nevada. Freaked me again but nice to know it does that in thin air. Plus his truck!

Awesome setup.

That’s awesome. The reach alone looks good.

Yeah, the I was surprised you had not gotten the mecalac way back when, i can't wait to get my own. I'm getting a tiltrotator for my kubota first and then a mecalac for my next machine.

Big thumbs up onthe new equipment

That 2 pc boom is really cool!! More versatile, like it was made for an operation like yours!! The low growl of the engine (my laptop is plugged into near-field monitors) just feels like a lot of power!! The rear wheel of the track (drive wheel?) is larger than the front? It just looks well/heavy built! Congrats on the new machine!! 8) --gary

A little pump a little oil and HOLY MOLY tons of force. Nice machine and glad you got one that was repaired so that all the ponies can run.

Looks like an awesome machine! Congrats man!

Looks like a awesome machine.

That is one cool machine!

Looks like a very versatile machine, but damn that's alot of hoses on that boom!

Looks great guys! We run an 8MCR and 7MWR and one thing I would definitely recommend is to get your head around using the foot pedal for the intermediate boom, it will make it far better to use. We also very rarely use the skid mode for tracking around, only if we are traveling a long distance on site. Tracking on your feet keeps more of the machine functions available to you ensuring its versatility is maintained.

Awesome machine 👍

So the 080 kabota is staying around for backup/extra duty seema like a good unit yet

Nice to see you went with a rotobec rpa grapple

Never knew about them. Looks pretty good 👍. Cheers 🍻

That awesome setup you have is do to a lot of hard work. Nothing comes free .for how young you are and to have what you have means that you have an awesome work ethic. Keep it up .

I was just looking at that video the other day. I love the design of these machines. Hope she's problem free. Keep us updated how she runs long term.

Wow, sweet machine

best in the business! The Swiss army knife of civil construction.

Happy Canada Day Sam.

Sweet machine

very nice.

Boom definitely looks different

Been wanting to demo one but no mecalac dealer any where near the mid west

I want one! I’ll get the maple syrup boys to tune it!

I don't know why nobody else sells 2-piece boom machines here. Much larger operating envelope and the boom isn't way up in the air when you are tucked up tight. 37gpm/4000 psi and all the reach should make for a great mulching machine.

Looks nice, but the hose management isn’t too impressive. Could definitely be cleaned up a bit. Looks easy to rip those hoses off in the bush.

They make a 15 more looks really good

what would be the purchase price in Australia for such machine?

If I may ask, what do you have to have your truck registered at (weight) to be able to tow that? Is there a max weight you can register a dually pick up at? Thanks.

We need to talk my MCR 10 is tuned down I want to turn it back up.

"this one comes from Canada, apparently them boys like HP just as much as they like maple syrup" lol .... hell yaaaa

Explain how the operator controls work with the 2 piece boom please. Thanks

I've been wanting one was that the 19 they had for sell

There a great machine the boom is like a human arm im shocked theres not more in america

Looks like a 4 stage boom

💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🇺🇸🇺🇸 what a machine 👍🏽👍🏽

Looks like a robots arm it is awesome

I thought you brought a 2150? Sad the 290 didn't work out but hey if this is better and makes you more $$$ then why not

I saw it in the background and new exactly what it was great machine we have 6 of them

Any idea what they did to your engine to get it to 115hp..I have a 6MCR and would to know!…thx

Awesome. Now you can throw real bobcat in tank. 😂 Why is trailer name covered?

Congrats on the new machine. Too me it seems like a Jack of all trades machine. Any update on the personal channel? I’ve been waiting for some Charger content

A 15 tone mcr

8:08 why are you strapping the boom down around the hydraulic ram like that?

Can you make a video showing the process and requirements, and rough cost to get the weight sticker on a truck.

I'm getting the wheeled 11mcr how in the world did ya get a 100hp one sir

Ok

Should of bought the Timbco probably about the same amount. 🤣

Can we get a status update on the 4500?

Why did you decide on a mecalac track excavator over a mwr wheeled model?

Dang new trucks, trailers, skid steers,excavators and all attachments u guys have to be charging $1,000 an hour with all them payments just to make money lol

Yellow is the colour

👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’m not sure why this is being advertised as 100hp?

Good luck getting parts

So your not keeping the 290

I would get trade 080 instead of the 290

Rly.....
