Getting Stuck pics

[RobJ]

Fun Pictures!!!!

Of course, if you can get it out on it's own, your not really stuck, just delayed!!!!

Here's a few of my stuck pictures. The dozer took all day and a very big hole with the backhoe to create a ramp to get it out.

The dumptruck took two backhoes to pull it out, but luckily it was only an hour job.

I've buried my CUT more times then I can count. If it wasn't for my backhoe to pull it out, I don't think I'd even try to mow around my shoreline. Since I can pull it out in a few minutes, I push it and deal with it when it happens.

The backhoe has never been stuck. I've buried it many times, but with enough time, I've always been able to get it out with the hoe. I sometimes worry that if I had 4wd, that I'd get so stuck that I couldn't get it out with the hoe stick. My neigbbor has 4wd on his backoe, and got it so stuck that he had to hire a trackhoe to get him out. That was pretty bad!!!

So how did you get that dozer out...bigger dozer? I'm guessing the dozer helped withe the dump truck.

Actually I have been stuck only twice with my tractor. Once in a dry ditch when the BB was hung up on the one side of the ditch. The other in a little mud in a ditch and the BH held me up on the other side. I try and stay away from the nasty stuff. Nice thing about both is I had easy access for my truck to give me a pull.

No live shot but you can see the aftermath in the road...dirt and black marks. I was going down the hill towards the road.

Ah yes, helps to have a BH or 2...laying around.

Anyone else notice that the underwater tractor photo has no tracks through the soft mud. It's either photoshopped, or its a flying tractor. Anyone know the origin of the photo?

Hmmm....... interesting observation. There is a chain on the ground leading toward the tractor but no tire marks.

I also wondered why no oil slick. Even the U.S.S. Arizona is still leaking oil after all these years.

 

[Redbug]

Yeah...I also was wondering about seeing no oil on the water surface.

Maybe the pond was frozen?

There is a chain in the fore ground

cutting grass next to the pond with MMM will get me at least once every season.

Note to myself - get a brush hog, stupid!

I have an email that someone sent to me with the pictures in the body of the email and I don't know how to separate them to post them here. They are from the 'Oil patch' in Alberta. There are some doozies of stuck trucks, dozers, graders, excavators, etc. Maybe someone can decode it and post them for your entertainment. PM me with your email and I'll sent them. Any takers?

Here's a different type of stuck.

Here's a different type of stuck.

If you can't bring the tractor to the stuck, bring the stuck to the tractor?

That looks like the tractor was just parked in the wrong spot before the storm. I don't see any tire tracks leading into that spot. Could it have been stuck and then the snow fell? At least there are plenty of trees to winch to.

 

[DocHeb]

The ice seemed thick enough (at least it was in all the other places I worked that day!). The front tires went in first, and then the back tires. I used some 2x12 lumber wedged between the ice and the back tires, and some careful lifting with the bucket pushind down on some other lumber to prevent the ice breaking under the bucket, and backed my way out. I didn't have a winch then, but I have one now.

i did thnat with a terramite backhoe loader and had to manuever the bucket and backhoe and stabilizers for about 15 minutes to get it out of the ditch.

Okay i am a big enough man to admit when i get stuck. Anybody else??????????????????????????
Yes i did manage on getting the tractor out myself i am lucky the backhoe was on at the time.

Obviously RT digger, you need to be schooled on the definition of "stuck"

If the machine gets itself out, without outside assistance, you are not "stuck" as Eddie says, you were just delayed....

Now, that raises the question of when I get my Backhoe stuck (I mean delayed), and I went and got the wife to run the tractor to bring me fill, to put under the tires and get going again, was I stuck

Of course she was riding me pretty hard till she went out in the front yard with the BH where I had dug a tree out and the ground was soft.......... She did not find it nearly so funny walking back to the shop asking me to get it out for her, I told her though that if you have to get someone else to drive it out for you, YOU were stuck.... Uh, by the way, that is the WRONG thing to tell your wife.

Okay i will admit i was merely delayed, But thes guys are really stuck.
