Loader Work

I do a lot of close quarters work with My 4600 John Deere.My most common job is tearing out driveways for new concrete.This involves a lot of work close to Houses,Garages, Fences,Gas and Electric meters and lines,well you get the picture.If I am going to in any way dig into the ground I call for underground utility service to flag the locations of anything they have in the ground.This is a FREE service and it sure aint free if you dig up a line.Another point I would like to stress is that whatever machine you are using,be aware that it has 8 corners on it.I have learned this thru experience,even just touching any kind of plastic material with any part of the machine will damage it.When I am working I look something like a bobble head,watching all 8 corners. I try to think of footprint of my machine like a cube instead of a square.Danger lurks on the ground,under the ground,and in the air.Also I find that when I work in the city or suburban areas it is a good idea to have an alert ground man.Children are drawn like a moth to a flame.Many little ones have asked me if I am Bob The builder.
