Sir you gave the exact same class I took in AIT for a week during Army TRADOC in 20 minutes. Your video was extremely informative, thank you for the refresher.

[dcarlion]

Thanks for this man now I can tell my boss I’m experienced even though I’ve never ever

[leelemon]

I'm 66 and just learned some basic skills I always wanted to know. Thank you, liked and sub.

[pnp]

Thank you for teaching how to operate the machine. I'll soon rent and operate it for the 1st time to build my own home here.

As an instructor, just wanted to say I take a lot of value in your videos. You guys do a great job. Keep it up. Thanks

[timothyjmagnus]

Great video for a novice to watch. Thank you for being thorough.

On the bucket control joystick the button at your thumb is a clutch in essence ( allows you to rev the motor while still in gear speeds up hydraulic movements with out gaining ground speed). On front of joystick middle finger area is push button 4x4 while holding down ( nice for pushing into pile then letting go and abilities to turn better and not tear up ground also).

Side note I enjoy all your videos I have been an operator 10+ yard now I like to watch you for a different perspective and possibly learn new tips and tricks. Keep the mind open I guess is my perspective I am taking...

[jorgecarrizalesjr]

Enjoyed this tutorial so much. Thank you for making it so easy to understand. Love that you didn't just ramble on and on as many do in these types of videos. Straight to the point, clear, precise and the visuals made it all better. THANK YOU!!!

[caleblandgraff]

Just signed up for Heavy Equipment Operator. Feeling a little more confident after watching this video. Look forward to learning as much as I can beforehand...thank you for the quick tips

It's been some time since I've been on a backhoe. I recall there being a 'detent' position for the loader control. I recall after dumping the dirt out (pushing lever to the right), curl the bucket (pushing lever inwards), push quickly inwards and it goes into a 'detent' lock where the bucket automatically positions itself to be perfectly flat when you lower it to the ground. I think it takes the 'guess' work out of what is flat or not. Also, I recall pulling down dirt with the front bucket at a stockpile before scooping it. 'Aerating' the dirt or rather breaking it up before scooping makes an easier and fuller scoop.

I really love this guy, he's the best tutor

[ramchillarege]

Great job. Just got me a 1025R and after fooling around with it yesterday figured I need to get some training! Thanks.

[jonnyogden]

Thanks guys! Start tomorrow as an equipment operator 1 and it’s an awesome refresher course! Cheers!

[joegaito]

I have a 2001 JCB 214S, which I absolutely love. It is 4wd with 4 wheel steering, and all four tires are the same size. It's like a loader with a back hoe attachment. Oh yah, no computers, just old school hydraulics and relays. Cheers from Canada, thanks for the vid.

Tip for setting up to dig. Before setting the front bucket down first, keep it elevated, drop outriggers first, level out, THEN drop your front bucket. Less stress on the outriggers, they will lift the machine easier. Also, make sure you've taken the front bucket off of float.

[nikmut]

Thanks, I always look past the backhoe because of the many controls. You made it look so simple.

[michaelramsey]

I'll probably never have occasion to drive one of these, but as an enthusiast of vehicles of all kinds, stuff like this is endlessly fascinating.

Currently found a job for this, I’m a fast learner so I came to this video to learn. I learned forklift operating from YouTube as well.
