Just signed up yesterday, here is a few pics I have. The PC1250 was working last year in a retail development in a suburb of Cleveland. It was a rock job, one day I swung by there they had the 1250 with a single tooth ripper shank on it attacking some sandstone, they had a water wagon parked next to it sprying the whole time to keep the dust down. It was mostly used for loading the 4-5 Cat 777 rock trucks on site. They had it making a 10'-12' cut. They also had 3 385s working there at one time along with a 825 compactor, D9, D8, and a few other support equipment.

is that Hitachi Independence's too?
The Hitachi 1200 was used for demoing an old department store. I believe thats a PC400 on the right and 300 on the other side. THe Hitachi pic is probably 5yrs old or so. Bear with me, this is a different system for attaching pics that I haven't used.
At the time it didn't have their stickers on it, yet. But a couple years later I saw one just like it with their stickers on it in Cleveland. The PC1250 was on machinery trader soon after the major dirtwork was completed on that job.
Welcome to the HEF Jeffksf:drinkup Great pics, gotta love that Huge Iron! Ken
ex1200-5, had lots of fun with that gem. Its a half mining machine and half construction machine.
How bid is that bucket in the pic? Or is the guy that short?
Nice, ^ my lack of height does inhance the size of the bucket.....:Banghead Glad to see you joined these forums
I bet I'm a "newer" guy than you Nothing to add, just getting my replys to that magic number.
hey Jeff, you ever work with precision procut?
And I am probably newer still. Man, these rigs look like fun. My wife probably thinks I've lost it looking at all this equipment online. Since I am usually under gunned equipment-wise, the size and power of these big machines has a certain appeal.
did you say your wife thinks your under gunned-- just kidding welcome aboard.
She may well think so but she's a wise woman and acts like I already own and expertly operate the heavy equipment I dream about. Thanks for the welcome - this is a great forum.
Wow, my little toy would almost fit in the bucket!
Awesome pics, big iron is always fun, cept when you have to pay for it. Trbo
