Hi, Folks. I just found this video on YouTube and thought it might be worth posting here. It is about safety when using dozers on coal stockpiles. http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=6KejBRUTUjA&feature=related

    Yeah whenever we have a feeder plug up we use an excavator to dig it out, that way we can keep distance from it. I have thought about falling in a rathole like that and it didnt appeal to me.

    Very good video Deas, thanks for linking it. Seen pics of big dozers sat on thier rears in that situation but never really understood how or why it happened. Do now, thanks.
