I've mentioned this to Keith before on
this channel oh man I tell you this
water is really good in the summertime
and if yeah if any use guys are
interested in learning how to operate an
excavator or a bobcat I'd like to know
I'd love to have one of these machines
but I don't know how hard it is to
operate when you watch Keith operate the
Bobcat machinery
you know the excavator or the skid steer
it looks like it's just an extension of
his hands moving there and everything
but you know I think it's harder not I
don't know how hard it is and I'd like
to know how many people be interested in
watching Keith do a bid on how to
operate the machinery you know how hard
it is
[Music]
hey guys so I'm back I'm going to show
you a little bit of safety in the piece
of equipment itself of course I'm not
going to start it because I have my
camera crew on the front bang and I
don't want to kill spudgy because we hit
the film leader so with this running
these controls operate the stick but
with this in the up position this thing
could be running and I could be doing
anything and nothing to move it's a
safety feature so when you want to go
into operation mode you put this down
now physically if the piece of equipment
was running anything I touch would make
this thing move the two sticks on the
front here to drive the tracks similar
to a bobcat and you want to go back you
pull back you want to go forward and
pull forward and if you want to turn
right left same things in a bobcat
knowing differences the Bobcat leaver
hero here this control here is to move
the main stick and I'll show you that
here in a bit if you pull back on it
it'll lift up the biggest arm towards
the cap and if you pull back on this
this will move the second arm back
towards the cap and vice versa if I push
this ahead it will lower that first
stick if I push this ahead it will push
out that other stick now towards the
curling of the bucket that's side to
side on this one
so you can curl the bucket in curl the
bucket out and this one here will
actually turn the cab itself will show
you a little bit of a nod after we
reposition the cameraman because I want
him to be safe that's most important
thing here these videos are fun but I
don't want to hear anybody on this thing
it has lower hydraulics so there's a
button you hear when it's running you
can push and then I can operate the
thumb on the front and I'll show you a
little bit about that plus a tilt
attached on the bucket which we probably
won't to show you that today but for
different reasons this cab is fully
air-conditioned all these doors and
everything come down and closed up it's
got a full stereo system and you can
easily work in this machine 10 to 12
hours pretty comfortably
you know working on an average bass so
what we're going to do is we're going to
reposition here and then I'm going to
fire this up and just show you a little
bit through the side door of how some of
the stuff runs so you can actually see
it ready all right so I'm back in the
cab we repositioned child 33 so he's
safe in the back of a secured location
to shoot this film so don't kill and
yeah machine to start to easy key and
now with this lever down everything is
active I can this up to say with the
sleeve seam line so when you're doing it
I can raise it up
that works really really good here on
uneven ground but it's beside the
stabilizing you're diggin and carrying a
big load of dirt nothin doin truckers up
it's like state laws are possibly to
push in trenches and stuff like that
like I was saying with this dick as you
pull the stick back in this the main
boom up okay so that's all of you and
right now is control in this loop I'm
not cutting the other one this one here
you click forward it goes down pull back
it goes back now the reason it sounds
like it's drugs it is because I got your
rpms down so you guys can actually hear
up when it didn't pull won't hear
there's no leg so now with this wound
here when you pull it back and lose that
secondary varmint then also goes in and
out
now I going shown with another control
gear side-to-side you move this going
side to side it'll curl the pocket back
of the court
and when you move is others big sides
inside now you see me give it away from
ya and vice versa back
concerning
so when you're digging kind of a limit
post stuff all over gather like I'm
going to turn this up a little level
better response like I want to scrape
the ground
it's a fluid go sleep all together
and I don't want to take this drought
and get me into a first goal an
incentive scrape and Lincoln straight
for a stop that's kind of what I'm
trying to show you here the food motion
of all hands it is so it's so different
after you learn how to do it no
different than sitting at the supper
table and eating you don't think about
it it just happens but it is that it
takes time but it's not
I definitely don't expect the Bunji to
be able to do what I can do because I've
been running this machine for I've had
my company 10 years before I own my
company around one of these for two
years created the rec center working for
another company I was in charge of all
the plumbing diggin and we're talking
super confined areas underneath roofs
and trusses and you had to dig in
between so I had lots of experience to
do it so that's why we're in a wide-open
area here and now we're going to put
cell 33 in here and see what he can do
