What happens here

In areas where excess soil or grass needs to be removed from sloped sections near the apartment building, use a compact track loader (ASV RT-75) with a bucket to scoop up the material. Instead of directly loading a dump truck (if one isn't accessible or to keep the parking lot clean), carefully transfer the scooped soil from the compact track loader into the larger bucket of a wheel loader (Manitou). This two-machine process minimizes soil spillage on paved areas and prevents the larger loader from gouging the ground or damaging underground utilities.

Goal: Efficiently remove and transfer excess soil while maintaining site cleanliness and safety.

[Applause] wait a minute why would you take the dirt and put it in the skid loader to pick it up to put it in the loader why wouldn't you just scoop it directly into the loader well actually i'm going to give you guys a chance to answer that in the comments down below and a little bit later i'll come in and explain exactly why we're doing what you see us doing [Music] right so let me explain why we're using the skid loader to put the dirt into the bucket of the loader we're trying to keep the parking lot as clean as possible meaning we don't even want the tires of the loader up into the dirt any more than we have to but in the same token we also don't want to gouge into the soil any more than we have to and for us to be able to grab that dirt smoothly and evenly would mean the loader would have to go from the asphalt parking lot bounce up and over a curb while it's digging down and remember there's utilities all throughout this complex we can't afford to hit any of those utilities so to play it safe we're using the skid loader to skim the top coat off and just toss it into the bucket of the loader that's keeping the parking lot clean and keeping us from damaging any
