Day 1 of the BIG DIG: Breaking Ground

Welcome to Day 1 of the Big Dig — the start of a major excavation project right here at the shop! In this video, we begin digging out the side of the building with our ‪@JohnDeere‬ 50ZTS compact excavator, setting grade precisely using a ‪@TopconPositioningSystems‬ laser system. The goal? Move a ton of earth and prep the site for what’s coming next. We hauled away all the excess dirt using a ‪@KenworthTruckCo‬ dump truck, and once the job was wrapped up for the day, we brought out the ‪@HotsyCleaningSystems‬ hot water pressure washer to clean things up right.
