Re: The Tale Of The Stuck Excavator.
The cost of that recovery must have been huge, I think I would have put the machine on the ground after recovery and checked its oil and fuel for contamanation and if ok tried to start it to get it loaded properly.The machine was not fully submerged so may have been OK.The electronics may be screwed up though. Wish I had the photos of the MF300 we recovered from Cockwood habour, Devon in 1984.That machine went right under.
