Up to yer nuts in it thread

[Mick Dempsey]

I always enjoy working out the story here.

 

Let’s park it off the road tonight, ready for tomorrow.

 

Oh-oh! Bit squidgy, reverse it  out of here!

 

Bollocks! Up to its nuts, get some planks.

 

Get a chain, let’s try and pull it out.

 

Sod this! Let’s go home, sort it in the morning.

Not exactly low ground pressure, working to the principle of tread lightly.

Suppose they didn't want to make a mess of the track

[Mick Dempsey]

I’m guessing they didn’t want to block it as it’s a busy farm track.

thats a nice effort sinking it..

 

couldnt leave until morning - wouldnt sleep noooooooo way.  

 

going to take a fair old pull to get out though, seen our local farm hitch a very large john deere to things like that and one lil grunt later its out. also seen folks let red mist descend and wow it can dig holes worse.

 

hard choice.

It’s a rental machine, so the hirer will have to get it out without damage and get it washed down nicely to avoid losing the deposit.

Did this with exactly the same mewp, thankfully we were on an mod base and one of their 6x6 lorries with all difflocks on pulled it out a treat

Good anti theft to leave it like that but i bet some ba...ed would take it.

I managed to sink this dumper up to its axles/steps early last summer. Completely my fault, I've been driving machines in this field since I was 5, chose the wrong route, lost momentum, game over!/

Fortunately the stuff in in the skip was a mixture of hardcore and roots, I mixed that in the bog in front of the wheels to make a ramp with the digger, dug out all I could with the digger and winched it out with the land Rover.  I was only able to use 1 snatch block as it took every strop and.chain I had to reach an anchor tree as it was! I was on my own so just had the dumper in neutral , so nothing but winch power.

The first picture is after I knew it was going to come out, I didn't feel like taking pictures when it was right in unfortunately!

I rescued these two diggers last week, had to get the 5 tonner out to make a bed for the log mat to rescue the 13 tonner. It took both my winches and 2 snatch blocks to get it out. 20 ton combined pull.

A miserable shitty job getting the track back on ?
