This CAT 992K works in a Limestone quarry.

 I love how it looks so proud of itself at the end... CATs are so cute when they play.  My second most favorite earth mover. This CAT is truly a work of art. In the hands of a good operator, this vehicle can do just about anything. You don't see too many 996's with dozer blades, but if you do, watch it work it's magic. Very powerful tools for pushing dirt...... I gotta believe the engineers considered what kind of "abuse" this piece of equipment would encounter and take it into account.  I guarantee you they said, "what would happen if the operator tried to lift the bucket as hard as the machine let him".  They either design the entire machine to be able to handle it or they dial back how much load the operator can put on the machine.  Its amazing that we as a species have developed machines that can moce pieces of earth as massive as this. Truly remarkable.
when you blast marble, you occasionally get pieces that are bigger than you can not fit in the loader bucket, if that was the biggest loader in the quarry then you have no option except to push it to the side away from the rest of the loading face until guys with compressed air hammer chisels can come down to deal with the oversize chunk, this often means being a little bit abusive to the machine and when you work in a quarry, it is naturally hard work so you can't go all snowflakey on the machine because you fear you might scratch it or maybe break a line, you do what you have to do to get the job done.

RIP the hydraulic pump for this machine.. This guy destroyed the hedrulic system just to move the stone. Beside that he actually destroyed the whole seals and the puching shafts. Great job
