Please I need job am a motor grader operator

Back in the 1960's we lived very rural as in no neighbors for miles. The road was gravel and seemed like every summer the township graded the roads to bring them back after a winter of snowplowing. They also used their red Austin Western to clean out the ditches. As a young boy I loved watching them work. When they purchased a Gradall I was in heaven. I remember watching that Gradall being used on steep banks and in ditches it was unbelievable.

Run a grader for 11 years and was still finding another function it would do. I loved it what you could do was admazing. My work will be seen 50 years from now

This is the way my Father taught me 20 years ago.

I am student havy Equipments mostly moter graeder

Can you do this with any graters ??

Pot holes

ahhh a government video...so basically wrong and half assed....thats why anything the government touches is full of garbage...government workers couldn't make it in the real world... your tax dollars at work folks..

Awesome grading love it love to see other grader skills

Very good

This video has been VIEWED by every CalTrans operator. But nothing has been learned or utilized by ANY CalTrans operator!

Very good 👍

Its a feel thing as is most moving machinery. You can give people all the book knowledge you want, and yet so many operators completely stink...I know the basics of boxing and yet would get owned by raw talent.

I could possibly see this as a third career choice. Looks like it would be challenging and in many cases you're working alone which I prefer.

I run a grader during winter operations. I’m always very careful to bench the snow way up as your drifts the next storm will be worse. I also lift my wing up a little so there is a defined shoulder. I plowed a road once and I left the road looking like a 50’ wide freeway. Cars couldn’t see the ditch vs the road and I had people off the road. I learned to just lift the blade closest to the grader about 6” so traffic has a line to define the edge of the roadway.

Very good job

I run an old 160H in Manitoba Canada. Great advice!

That is full course

When I was a kid back in the day I saw two grader operators running old 12 E’s put their mold boards together to form a ‘V’ and matched their speed while cleaning out big parking lots. When the snow they were pushing built up and got to heavy they just steered away from each other. I’ve never seen anyone do it since and I never had the nerve to try it with anyone while running expensive modern machines but watching them do that has always stuck with me. Those were the men back then who spent their lives on graders blading gravel roads in summer and snow in winter, guys who ended up with hearing aids later in life from those noisy old beasts.

only real men can do this technique

Ausgezeichnet 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Like 👍👍👍

These machines are so incredibly versatile. I haven't operated heavy equipment but a grader looks similarly difficult to operate as a walking excavator.

Gud class indeed

Great Tips Thanks For The Advice 😉👍🏽

Thanks for the lessons. I am a motor grader operator of a 140 G at Del Monte Philippines Inc.

For first time I do know about all these functionality the grader has.. wish to have one only for funny purposes

One of the hardest peace's of equipment to run other than a drag line.
