#1980 john deere 750 dozer plus
The other plus with the Deere over the Cat's was they would work in deeper mud and not get hug, don't get me wrong they still could get hung it just took more, the other thing that you could do is track and winch all at the same time, you could power out your line and hold a truck on a vary steep grade while you moved ahead to get another foot hold then suck the truck up to you and do it over again.
#1980 john deere 750 dozer full
Like i said i ran them hard full travel forward and full travel Reverse the load sensing would adjust ground speed for torque while making a cut and as you came out of the cut and were just carrying the blade full your speed would increase, ones that blade full was on the pile it was full travel reverse back for the next cut and just as fast as you could move the speed control from full rev to full forward this is why the pedal steer worked better as you could be making your turn to get into possession for the next cut lowering your blade and changing direction all at the same time, with a lever steer this could only be accomplished if you had either two right or two left hand and arms. and steer with your feet, just remember to ware the seat belt or you just might find yourself hugging the muffler. One hand on the blade and on on the forward Rev. Now given the choice i myself prefer the pedal steer with the Z pattern as i can make them really work. We had pedal steers and lever steers and all had the Z shift pattern. They took a pounding and IMHO they were tough. Had one that the right hystat motor worked loose and that was a fun job in the field to fix. Ya removed the HEN HOLE cover on the bottom right and worked blind up thru there with oil dripping down your arm pit. It was more of a pain in the donkey to fix and the loss of the hy stat oil. Oh and one other problem that came to mind here, for some reason on the right track motor on the bottom there is a plug with a o/ring that would let go and leak. Tried them on moving frac teams in but the winches would not hold up to that abuse. We used them for entrance building pipe line rightaway and site clean up and moving empty frac tanks. The only Deere that gave us fits were the 550 's.
The only problem we had was some tracking problems that was just a simple adjustment to solve just need a LONG extension and it was either a allen head socket or just a socket, i can not remember for sure as it was back in the 80's but i still have the extra long snap on 3/8th extension.
When i left that company it was several years later i was conned into running another oil field service company and this company went big and i had four 850 Deeres and four 750 Deere's and four 550 Deeres and four D6D 's and each dozer had two operators as we ran twelve hour shifts seven days a week.along with a flock of trucks and other equipment. It was FAST it handled like a skid steer It would work the bag off a D 6 D and it impressed me to no end and i am here to tell ya it got beat hard as it got ran each and every day no less then 12 hours and some times it would run for three days non stop other then feeding it and me. In other words it got the bag run off of it. I built lease roads, drilling location and move drilling rigs and Frac teams on and off location. it had a W 6 F winch on the back and a 10 6 blade with tilt.

It was used in the Ohio oil patch back in 76-77. I ran one when it was sorta new as it had 390 hours on it when i took over, The only problem that we had with it was one charge pump on the left motor.
