Dig hole, fill with water.

What happens here

After digging a portion of the pool area, the excavator swivels its upper structure, lifting the bucket full of excavated soil. It then extends its arm to a designated area away from the main excavation site, dumping the soil to create a spoil pile. This process is repeated to clear the excavated area efficiently. The operator demonstrates skillful maneuvering of the heavy equipment to manage the removed earth.

Goal: Create a designated spoil pile for removed earth.
