    This is an absolute must for an industrial/commercial electrician. I was sick of carrying materials from where I was working halfway across sites back and forth with hot works permits in place to the cutting station day in day out. Now with this, I grab my tray, ladder, conduit, unistrut or whatever, and just cut it exactly where I am working. The only issue with this saw is you have to be very careful as it spits out hot sharp metal right in your direction. Use proper wrap-around safety goggles! A bit of modification using some tape and cardboard can reduce this also. Hopefully, the next Dewalt version of this brilliant tool will address this issue.

    How often do you have to replace the blade? My cold cut saw blade probably lasts about 30-50 cuts before replacing the blade (before all the tooth go missing). Which is annoying cuz those blades are expensive 😑

  • @iamthebaird

    If your teeth are coming off, consider going slower. 😁 I normally cut thin sheet metal with higher tooth count blades, so they last a long time.

    Interesting to see a stationary boiler with forced air on it. Usually stationary boilers had enough draft from their stacks to not need such an arrangement. I guess this one really wants a bigger stack than it has, so the blower makes up the difference.

    The factory blade is best I've used, but I also use 30 and 50 tooth Oshlun 5-3/8" blades at less than half the price. The rake on the 50-tooth SBF-054050 is reversed, making it really nice for thin sheet metal. It cuts 29ga pole barn steel like butter and leaves no burrs or damage to the paint.

    @@slpurvis1 right on! This will be a big help. If you have any of the flexvolt batteries, I'd use them when cutting thicker stuff. Avoid the 1-2Ah thin batteries altogether. Not enough current to run that thirsty motor... Also, wear good glasses or a full-faced visor, gloves, and good hearing protection. This thing is the loudest tool I own and throws hot, hateful chips.

    I remember working on these crawlers. Twice the power but they also were twice the breakdowns. Two engines, two transmissions, two radiators, two hydraulic systems. They are pretty simple to wok on. I’ve rebuilt lots of these 6-71s and Allison’s over the years. Glad to see these are still plugging along.

    Didnt GM make less than 1000 of these things worldwide throughout the Euclid TC-12/Terex 82-80's entire production run? Where in the world did you get to work on not one but several of these unicorns? Also, how the hell are you supposed to synch two engines to run at the exact same speed under load & rough terrain when you need the machine to move forward in a perfectly straight line? Theres gotta be more to it than just joining up the throttle linkage, right? These things had to have had a means of synching track speed, otherwise it would be a pretty useless dozer. Steering clutches on a dozer suck more than anything has ever sucked before, but how else are you supposed to get a perfect 50/50 power distribution between both tracks. One engine is always going to be under more or less load than the other, so it should be impossible to keep both tracks at equal speed with two independently driven sprockets, right? I get that the governors will do their best to keep each engine at constant rpm under load, and im sure the Detroit's high redline greatly minimizes any fluctions affect on track speed, but your still effectively running with an open diff with this dual drivetrain setup, right? Whats stopping it from pulling/grading drunken lines like a tractor thats pulling a sub-soil plow with an open diff? IDK, maybe all that is why so few of these things were built and the D-9 instead became the F-150 of big-earthmoving equipment. Independent drive and bulldozer are two mutually exclusive terms that sound to me like glorified skid-steer when put together.

    @@pinkhead6857890 As a Euclid/Terex Distributor in Minnesota we saw lots of oddball units. Euclid gave our distributorship the very first front end loader they made, S/N 0001. We had to agree not to sell it. To clarify I said I worked on a lot of Detroits and Allison’s in my time, 42 years as a mechanic. As to this exact model I have no idea how many, probably 2-3. Maybe I worked on the same unit 2-3 times, no idea. This video was from Rollag MN only about 100 miles from where I worked. It very might have been the SAME unit I worked on, or a cousin to this one. As I said it was a bitch to get both engines to put out the same Horsepower. You had to get the linkage exact, you had to have all the injectors working exact, you had to have the engine and transmission working perfectly. But you need to remember that the transmission in these did NOT have a lockup clutch, but they did have a converter. So if one engine was not up to par the transmission would understand that it was not getting enough power. So you would need to adjust the lever that made that side forward or back depending on which one was off. So this is how they got away with two power systems for each track. If off enough you would just adjust the control levers so they would be together. You think that’s weird, did you ever work on and Terex TS-24? They had a Detroit V-12 in the front and a V-6 in back. Both with totally different transactions too!
