Kinda looks like they dont know what a decelerator pedal is from the way the tracks are spinning and going no where specially in some of the other vids of this ripper, you wouldnt want to be paying for the track repairs. Cheers RDG.

I think they need to work out how to use the ripper properly. He has it way too far back and doesnt pull it under to keep loading on the tracks. If the machine was used a bit more efficiently they may not need the vibrator.
All that aside those things a hell on the machine in just about every area. It would lower the frame life of the machine in a big way not to mention running costs.
cheers.
