For me it's made life so much easier.I find it becomes very full on if you try and drive the grab and the digger all at once.
I put a type 1 driveway in to a campsite 40m long in one day all material in and out by myself. Was knackered by the end of it.
I regularly do drop kerbs 2 man machine transit and 7.5t lorry
And that can be an easy day depending on where tip site is.
Working like this is easy if both people know what there doing and can drive a machine but it's pointless if the machine has to stop when u go to grab materials or you can't leave the other bloke unsupervised. It becomes a head ache.
Where I work
There are plenty of lorry's and quite a few have hgv so most working setups have been tried.
Me controlling the grab keeps the job moving and now the digger never stops so win win. I can also run the muck that others don't take because they are to picky on what they take and to top it all run to sane tips as they do.
