CAT M313C RUBBER DUCK

[Jim M]

Hi all, Here are some pics of one of W.DANIELS PLANT HIRE cat rubber duck working at langage power station job near Plymouth.This particular machine is going to be my future mount .I don't think it will take long to get used to operating it apart from the bounce you get with them, anyone with any handy operating tips for these machines it would be greatly appreciated as i am more used to operating ones with tracks .

There is rumours that this machine along with the larger cat m318c which is also on the fleet are going to be traded in for the new D series models,if anyone have any reviews on these i would like to know what these are like compared to the C SERIES .

I am not that experienced with rubber ducks as I also prefer tracked ones but I might tell you of a mistake that I did with "rubber on my feet". I was traveling with the undercarriage backwards. As you might realize that makes the steering go the wrong way. Let me say that I had a brutal awakening when I tried steering.
