Thats real bad when a track hoe cant get itself unstuck

It's bad news when someone is bad enough to get a track how stuck.

X2

Everyone thinks its hard to sink one. Trust me its not. Ive known guys that have 20+ years experience on them and they will get them stuck still. If you don’t have swamp mats or logs underneath them in wet areas down they go.

Weight always over rules lack of patience and smarts !!

Now THIS IS STUCK. Saw it online. Guy sank it in a swamp over in Sweden.

Danny, had a beaver dam for some guys to dig out with a track hoe one time, could drive right up to it, figured they knew i blew the one up above it as we had done all this before. Apparently was a new guy on the track cause he tried to drive it up to the other dam which meant he drove or tried to drive across a big wide area of nothing but weed beds, a floating mat of vegetation, lol.

When i arrived he was out in the middle of it reaching with the bucket trying to find something solid to grab to which of course there wasn't anything so he had it buried in mud up nearly to the cab, both tracks were under mud, lol. No clue how they got it back out.

^^almost impossible I thought^^

Leftlane, a loader with a bale spike on it is no use in helping to get out of these situations. (Btw it's Mr Dana) I know it can be confusing with my name.

It happens, sometimes there is no bottom and once you're in to where you can't turn and nothing solid to grab you're done. And if you keep trying and the intake goes under, you get to pull dead weight out. Don't ask me hoe I know.

Also don't ask how much fun it is when it's single digits and you have to thaw it out, pull the injectors, pump the water out, and change oil.

Glad to see I am not the only one getting stuck.
I don't take pictures though.
My brother is the one that gets a picture.

Remember. If you get out yourself your really not stuck.
