Could you prove that you have operated excavators by one word or sentence?

I’ve never operated an excavator, but I know that continuous double benching will cause premature failures.

My first post! Hi everyone.

After the window closes, take your jacket off, so you're in a short sleeved t-shirt. And wipe your forehead like your sweating. :cool:

I am guilty of this. I can't operate an excavator with anything other than ISO controls for the life of me after 20+ years of using the same setup. Comments like, "well Barry has never operated before and he got the hang of it after 30minutes" only add to the frustration.
