Who checks if any people are in the bucket before going again? Seems like the operator would not be able to see inside or immediately in front of the bucket as it stopped.

The cab doesn't look like it has an glass in it for the windows, but I'm assuming it must have because you wouldn't wanna fall out of that cab 😅

Moved many 2400s back in the 70s, 80s. Back then the company I worked for when there wasen't anything to pick up with the crane the operators got out of the crane and got greasy with everyone else.

The operator of the silver spade has some serious skills to get that dipper arm in the hole without damaging the threads on it. Boy i bet it's a massive pain in the arse having to carry the massive tools all the way up that boom to reattach the dipper arm , i bet the mechanics are pleased that it doesn't happen very often 😂

So sad watching them cut these awesome machines up for scrap, it's a real shame that the biggest one's wasn't preserved for future generations to be able to see these awesome giant's face to face, especially big muskie that should have been saved because there will never be another dragline that size ever built again.

I can't believe that no one bothered to check if the ground it was walked onto was stable enough to take it's weight and make sure it was rebuilt properly, i mean to me that's just basic common sense but obviously cemex thought different. I'm so sorry the operator was put in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, dam he was lucky to survive that .
@theunemployedtruckerАй бұрын
I can't believe the cab looks relatively undamaged, especially because of all the weight that was on top of it when it went on it's roof .
@theunemployedtruckerАй бұрын
I bet it cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to rebuild it , it just looks like a massive pile of scrap. Does anybody know how much it cost to rebuild?????? and would it have been easier to just buy a new one ?????
@theunemployedtruckerАй бұрын
Dam that must have been shit your pants scarry when that flipped on it's roof , i bet the poor guy operating it when it flipped didn't know what the hell was going on. I really hope he wasn't seriously injured.

Thats not at all what i remember the Page the worked near my parents home in 1970s. This clearly is turbocharged and running at much higher rpm than what i remember. And one of their mechanics showed me a piston ring,it was 15" in diameter.

It’s really interesting that when you look at the largest hydraulic excavators and shovels of today you think wow that’s enormous, but in order to build a truly colossal machine such as this you have to go back to an earlier technology using cables and winches. The only difference is instead of steam or diesel power you have to use high voltage to get the immense power and torque required to run the machine. The best of old meets modern!! Very cool stuff 👍

Naaah! . . . I'm a watching paint dry fan, myself.
Such a sin. They should’ve made it a museum.
