Hi all,

Have a look at this photos of a very big wheel loader used for working in a marble quarry, I think its a Dresser.

Cheers.

Worked alongside a 570 in mining,in the 90s.
Owner also had an ever-reliable H30.I never could get used to the cabin -on -front set up,after operating Cats.

Must be a very strange feeling operating such a machine. You never know where the back points at. :-)

The Cat just felt right when I first got on an old 950.Then I went on to 966 & 980...all easy to operate.
BUT when you get on those Hough/Dresser loaders,confusion reigns. :dizzy:
I tried,but just couldn't get efficient on them.They made some good loaders.
