I need some pointers from the more experienced operators on here please.
Im on an old D6C 69j. The one that gives you a headache after about 5 hrs with open cab haha.
Anyway, I've got about 2,500hrs in the seat so am fairly familiar with the machine. All hrs done on farm doing the usual stuff us blokes do, stickraking,pushing timber live and dead, cleaning dams, wet and dry. Contouring, clearing fence lines etc.
Im halfway clearing a line now about 3000mtrs. And the old fence dissapears up a steep hill with thick scrub. I need to try to clear the old fence and make a track for the guys to build the new fence. I walked the hill yesterday arvo to see what im up against and doesnt look good. Ive got at least a 45 degree hill with a series of ridges etc and the old fence and trees and very loose soil with lots of rock.
I need to cut into it without sliding off this widowmaker hill. The track has to go along the side so im looking at a steep climb on my right of the cab and a long long way down on the left of the cab.
Anyone got some tips for me please. I know to keep the machine level and not play around near the loose stuff on the edge. I feel the job will take longer to make it safe to work on but the farmer will want it done quick.
