Caterpillar D10 Documentary

A Very professional demonstration on the D 10. Appreciated your workmanship, THANKS

Absolutely awesome in your description of this fine machine. Thank you.

Educational thanks! I would like to see a video of it running! Ty!!

Thanks very informative

You should do some more video documentaries of various machines. I'd watch the shit out of them! Cheers.

PAmining , as was the case of the 455A, I later moved into this ,the sweetest dozer I ever sat in the cab, the D-10 ! 
. One thing is any good mechanic can take a helper and change out engine in a short time, also roll the trans out the back, 4 Hrs out and back in the rock again. It had the heart of the D-10, as was the same of the D-9G straight stack , both had "heart" Thank You PAmining once again for many memories being brought back. .

Cat oughta hire you as a commentator. Your voice is very distinctive and you know your stuff. I always enjoy your videos. Thanks!

I've always been curious about those machines; even went so far as to take a pre-apprentice course in Heavy-Duty Mechanics. That didn't work out though. I ended up making toilets for the next 27 years. Go figure..... You've explained the machine well without going into technical jargon that would lose the average viewer. I've thoroughly enjoyed myself here. Thank you.

awesome video thanks for sharing

What a beast...

U kno ur stuff regarding caterpillar.Very impressive talk on the D10..thanks from Scotland..Aberdeenshire.Turriff.

Thanx 4gettin back to me, am currently workin D9 on road bypass in Aberdeenshire,keep dozing,rippin.Good luck.

It does not seem like that long ago that Caterpillar had the “C” logo and first introduced the D10, but it was. You have made several excellent videos including this one. Thank you for sharing them with us.

I like this presenter how he does his talking

Excellent presentation, professor; I can sense your admiration for this fine machine ! Thanks for the educational tour !

Very well done brother!

Excellent video. Would of love to here it fire tho

beautiful beast

Take a shot every time he said d10 :D amazing video on an amazing vehicle tho

Hey I just really enjoy your narration, it seems that you really have your heart set into the videos that you make and that is way cool. I have a terex tractor and it is a work horse!.

Awesome video, learned a lot. Really enjoyed the video.

Put a ton of hours on a ten,nicely done very informative

Hi there you do seem to find some lovely old cat dozers that sadly have been left to rust & get wrecked, Is it possible to buy some of these machines & have them exported to the UK. I love these old machines

Great documentary sir. Great info

Great video great voice we just sold our D9L gonna miss it

I spent years doing the service & repairs as needed on the first D 10  / demon model to hit southern........... sadly, it went the way of the torch, / parted out. but on the heals of that, they bought an early D 11. monster cat.

You should be a teacher and a educational video for caterpillar you really know your stuff I have lured a lot about these tractors then I thought I knew cause of watching your videos Definitely subscribed

Okay... I have seen several of this guy's "documentaries" and I'm still wondering what real-world experience he has besides infatuation in heavy equipment he has. Literally everything he has said is the Wikipedia coverage of this machine. I have also saw other videos with misguided information pertaining to Pony Motors and machine Construction. I am glad someone has such enthusiasm for yellow paint but it would be hard to believe he has ever sat in the seat for a day or ever turn the wrench standing on his head working on the machines he covers in his videos

am shocked on the condition of the cab as vents missing and much dirt, mine I kept clean but was a 9 not a 10. one needs to have respect for one of these and it will respect you, one time mine was the only one running when others were down.

I have three D9L tractors in my territory from the same vintage as this D10. One of them have a confirmed 120,000 hours on the clock. Massive machine!

96 ton😫

Excellent video!

Elevated sprockets, please Google a picture of the first Caterpillar tractor.
Cheers bud

Merry Christmas to you. 🎅

I don't understand why they angled the operaters seat. Can you explain this please? What about the left side of the blade?

What about the predecessor to the d10 the d10n is a documentary about it coming up soon? Ll

Ive operated a CAT D11 on Batters and Berms and is like driving an Airbed atop of these Quarries and cliff tops compared to the old CAT D8K which would have you pissing blood.

I wish there was a channel like this about locomotives

Loving these videos. Beast of a dozer 💪

This old girl has some history under her tracks, wonder how long its been sitting, motor looks freshly painted at least

And back here next to the ripper shank control, is the 1/2 case of starting fluid as she really likes her smelling salts lol 🤣

Great description! Would love to hear this thing start up and run!

Are you ever going to do a video on the komatsu d575

keep it coming

Absolutely Love the D10, very maneuverable, blade control as precise as a D8! Load TS24s one per minute. Excellent on slopes, what is not to like!

Lovely old tractor 👍👍👍👍

I still run one of those old jewels, with a 68 yd. coal blade, and a D-11T also.

Boy it’s a long way up!..😳…doesn’t look like this old dozer is used much anymore!

In the case of these old dozers, you dozed more by what you could feel as opposed to what you could see…an old operator told me many moons ago that you don’t doze with your eyes, you doze with your ass!..lol!!

One of my grandfather's retired from cat in 1981. I'm sure he built some of the first of those hi track d10s with a single stack. I can remember him building and showing me a model he put together of a single stack d10. The decals/lettering show that one is an early one.
