What happens here

The initial phase of land clearing involves using heavy machinery, such as an excavator, to remove existing vegetation, including trees, stumps, and underbrush. The excavator, identified as a CASE CX210D, utilizes its bucket and hydraulic thumb attachment to systematically uproot trees, tear out stumps, and gather all cleared organic material into large piles. This mechanical removal ensures a thorough clearing of the designated area, creating a blank canvas for subsequent construction.

Goal: Clear all unwanted vegetation from the construction site.

Tools and materials

  • Excavator CASE CX210D — Uprooting trees, pulling stumps, moving and piling debris
