What happens here
This project details the process of clearing land using heavy machinery and chainsaws, focusing on equipment preparation, maintenance, and efficient debris management. It covers preparing a battery-powered chainsaw, lubricating skid steer attachments, cutting large branches for transport, and using a grapple bucket to move significant amounts of brush and tree roots.

(7,903 characters)[Music] he's like who's that guy i think we're gonna get cooled off [Music] across okay we need to fly i got a dump truck waiting for a load of trees to go out i don't have any extra time got a chainsaw here i believe it's got a full battery boom the tethered system we get to try this bad boy out after we get oops after we get some bar and chain oil if i have bar and chain oil anywhere handy i used to keep it over here used to have a whole container of it that's actually a pretty decent sized chamber for a small chainsaw holy bucket what the hell is there a hole in the bottom whoa okay oh that came out fast why do you even try to keep chainsaws clean because when you're up on the top of a tree like this you don't want oil and grease all over that's why why do you answer your own questions because sometimes i ask questions before i think of the answer interesting interesting interesting but is it really i don't know this is as clean as i need it to be i'm just knocking crap off all over well you wouldn't if you cleaned your garage ever dirt monkey well if there was a 25th or sixth hour in the day in my garage i'd have enough time to clean it what i'm saying is there just doesn't ever seem to be enough hours to do all the things that you would really like to do like clean your garage but then the question is do you really want to clean the garage yep chains on pretty tight i love battery powered chainsaws i love them so much torque so much torque no messing with nothing you just boom that big deep reservoir tank i don't think i need to for the few cuts i got i don't think that's pretty don't want to use lose that all right let's get back to the job site and maybe this time the camera will stay in the right position so on the hydra bucket i learned you should put almost a full tube of grease in each side a full tube yeah you got a grease zerk on both sides because this it's got to fill up with grease all the way there's a band and it's got to fill that whole band up so he says just use a you get the automatic grease gun and when you grease it just just can blow a tube in on each side this morning did you where'd you find this yard must have been on that black skid loader because i didn't see it on the ground and then i grabbed the hydro bucket and then it was on the ground i knew i was missing one of these hey what's the problem you want me to run it on the grease gun or the machine what do you want me to do i mean i already squirted some grease in there can you push down on that it would be your left side what am i pushing down on this little red pin on the other side okay so what do we got to do we got to get this to go all the way down right see how the other side is yeah lift up looked up so i can get at it just a tip and you squirted it you said yeah i see all the grease in there already so you just gotta work it a little bit you were able to get grease on that one yeah up let's work it out i'll assist it a few times maybe that'll get it to pop home you just don't have a good angle you can push on the top of that spring too down in there there's that spring where it goes on to the top hold on is that spring off all right she's starting to work let's just keep her running i'll keep her keeper cycle through it a few times that grease will work into that thing he's done on all right that's a lot of grease in it now okay flip her flip her up so we can see it though i wanna there we go let's see her let's see her go i bet she goes a little smoother now we got grease on the top and the bottom of that cylinder oh okay stop sec i'm just gonna i'm gonna stick a dab of grease right yep you're in good nope missed it we got to get a game plan here real quick though alex what's the scoop is johnny coming in or what's going on yeah i got stuck at the same train he did this morning and with that i want to say good morning evening afternoon we sometimes you just get to a job site and you're in the middle of the action right away and that's what happened this morning we're going to go into this site and we hopefully fingers crossed get this baby wrapped up i don't want to say for sure we're going to do it because if i did say that then for sure we wouldn't do it here's a little trailer porn for you i don't know why but i think maybe you guys tell me but guys just love trailers like really cool trailers [Music] we're hoping this is going to be the last day of the job but we're also finding that we've got a pop-up thunderstorm that's getting more and more aggressive heading our way and we have a lot of material that still has to be cleared out we've got brush debris dirt that has to go out dirt that has to come in black dirt that has to get graded and brought in so there's a lot of work to happen to make it before the rain comes in whoa that stick came for a visit in my cab [Music] i should probably throw the door down right all right the load is bigger than the truck so i'm just going to go grab a chainsaw and cut it right in half and then i can safely get it all in but we need a chainsaw to do that so let's get that done now we got the little baby itty bitty yeah i got the tethering system [Applause] ah so this isn't really what this is meant for obviously this is an arborist chainsaw it's meant to go up to the top of a tree because you don't want to be tangled up but i think we got it all pretty much zipped through already alex doing in there he's uh cleaning up the rocks and the the chunks that are in the uh dirt with the with the back you know what let's let's chew up that other let's chew up those other trees before we try to bring them out that way we're not dragging them ah we might be able to [Music] you see longer ones john no i think that was the last one except for right here yep those are the poison berries that you said we're good eating so [Music] and this is why he was kicked off from blaine's job site the other day i think instead of saying like a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest i'm gonna say a one-armed alex in a shoveling contest but i think you'd win [Laughter] you're still going at it dude holy crap let me do that will you stop i'm right standing here you can see me three feet away but there you go you're supposed to run that thing we gotta fill this area in right here we're gonna cut down you know what we gotta do you do that stuff i'll come in there so it happens to be one of those situations where when it rains it pours alex hurt his chicken wing just through sheer over exertion but this is a guy maybe you guys have heard me say it before one day before he came to work he was training for a marathon and ran 20 miles before coming into work and he's one of those guys where he just thinks his body is unstoppable you know i mean does don't most young guys think that way but it's starting to catch up to him and then blaine hurt his shoulder as well but that's because blaine's like 53 years old and he's just banging away at them blocks trying to base them and he he put his wing out of commission as well so at the same time we have two guys with bum chicken wings going on in the company and we've got to get these guys to slow down and take care of themselves and in this job site in this video you could actually see where alex no matter what you tell him he's still gonna jump out there and get into it so sometimes you just gotta put the brakes on a little harder i guess but that's all we've got for you on this one we're actually going to come out with a video tomorrow we're going to finish this up and it's can we beat the rain we have one of these freak pop-up storms coming through and it gets more aggressive and more aggressive and we've got black dirt we've got materials that have to get gone before we can get this site done and so that's coming up tomorrow bonus video god bless you guys go get em hopefully we'll see on the bonus one tomorrow
