About 40 years ago when we where kids I remember my grandparents living next door to a old abandoned wrecking yard full of these old retired earth movers, dozers, dump truck and excavators like the one in this video, some of the best memories I have are of us playing for hours at a time exploring, climbing on and pretending to operate these fascinating machines, good times!!!

I’ve got a Ruston Bucyrus 19 R-B , which is a slightly larger English-built machine, with the same front end. To get the best out of one of those cable trench hoes, tuck the dipper under the boom as it comes out of the cut, set the hoist clutch as the dipper teeth reach the top of the cut - start the swing as soon as the back of the bucket clears the cut. Leave the hoist clutch in through the swing and, as you approach the dumping point, slacken the drag brake and let the dipper run out to dump. Do not disengage the hoist until the dipper is empty and commence the return swing before the dipper has quite emptied. Slacken the hoist brake on the return swing, so that the dipper is just above the ground by the time you reach the cut - set the drag clutch an simultaneously lower the dipper into the cut for the next bite. Take an even slice through the cut so that the dipper slides through fast and easy. A fast fluid motion that’s easy on the machine and the operator, and moves most yards per hour ! I couldn’t do half of what you guys do with a hydraulic machine today, but in straightforward easy trenching, I could still give you a good run for your money !
