[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 9256, member: 82"] Adding water for me would do little, there is a lot of shale. Yes, it has enough force to rip the shale up but only if i don't go at it too hard. What i have been doing to dig is angle the bucket so the teeth are like a chistle and work the crowd and adjust the height as the bucket comes towards me. Just like clawing at it not worrying about the dirt straight away that it digs up. When i have a bit i then curl the bucket to dig it up and out. If i try and take too much it just sticks and i have to have another bite. If i take my time and dig small amounts it seems to do pretty well, nothing like a bag machine does. It will still fill a bucket with 2 or 3 bites so its not that slow. I was amazed when we had some work done, he just put his legs down and carved the hill up like it was nothing! just biting in and getting a full bucket, effortless! [/QUOTE]
