Stolen Takeuchi TB23R Digger Automatrics MTrack Recovery Operation - 3rd June 2019

- Automatrics took a call from a plant hire company saying one of their Takeuchi TB23R mini diggers had been stolen near Leicester. The machine was fitted with a covert Automatrics MTrack theft recovery device which was remotely triggered into alarm, but Automatrics after the connection were unable to receive a GPS fix.
A radio signal finder was dispatched to try to track down the stolen machine. Follow the finder to see how this theft recovery operation turns out.
What an awesome tv show this would make. You guys have done like 80% of the work, high quality filming, editing and your're really good at comminicating on camera, so a tv station could easily turn this into a cracking season or 2.
But they may not do any favours to the man's company...
@@fabriglas what do you mean?

@@fabriglas 👍
right on, i would watch it✌
Need to see some criminals being arrested with these recoveries - or at least getting beat up by the police.
Good job.
Bill from PA 💤😴💤😴💤
The good olde days !
@@steveone YES! send them to Australia!
Nah..criminals have feelings you know? They need to be well fed and be comfortable in a luxury prison where they can get time off for good behavior. They deserved to be treated well after for example stole high valuable objects and maybe even damaged it or if they brutally murdered someone.
Guess what else is missing them showing us the rig being straps down on a truck flat bed. Dammit at the very end of the video those SOBIESKI 🤪
Phew!!! Thought for a moment there you were gonna find another transponder in the bushes. 😖
As i write this why 18 down thumbs. This guy has a service where he helps honest working people against scum and when he is successful why should you down thumb other than you don't like to see honest working people fighting against crime. Probably the people who nicked it in the first place.
I gave the video a thumbs down and one for you.
This moron knew where the digger was and he still went there on foot in full view of the only house in the area.
He was the one who put pursuing police in danger by alerting thieves and it also could have resulted in the thief setting fire to it to destroy evidence.
I wouldn't use this idiots service if he offered to pay me to use it.
"So this morning weve had a phone call from a plant hire company saying their excavator has been stolen, Were now following it on the back of this lorry ! " 0:20
@WelshWoody Found it easier than the one that was stolen lol , "and now back to the office :') "
Two uploads in an evening. Christmas has come early!
😂🎅👍
0:10 "They've had their excavator stolen"
found it!!!
Stumbled across these videos. How addictive!! Keep them coming. Great advert for what is clearly a good product. Richard is a natural on camera!
and this people, is why proper trackers costs alot of money!
not really that expensive
140 pounds for the device and 16 pounds a month or annual payments(cant remember the price)
@@band1t620 in total thats 330ish,sure youd only pay that in the first year but still, not everyone have that money
@@eriksimca9409 it's fuck all if you've got a 50k or 10k hire diggers that earn you your living
You can do the same for a whole lot cheaper (without the recovery service, of course)
I actually rate this guy so highly. With he’s age you wouldn’t expect to take maximum advantage of technology in this day of age. This guy does he’s job, documents and films it for he’s own record and evidence. And then makes a video out of it, sticks it up on CZcams, makes money from youtube. And with the amount of advertising he gets from the 100k+ views without paying for advertising but instead getting paid for. 1 STONE 5 BIRDS, NOT 2. Damn this guy is a genius! But at the same time big respect to the hustle, Doing all nighters recovering
Nice support lol, although we don't actually monitise this channel 👍😜
@AutomatricsMtrack you should
That's one helluvan experienced driver on that digger! Props to that guy for driving it over the ditch
Would be awesome to set up a hidden camera and see the thieves reaction when they come back to find the digger gone 😂😂
This needs to be a TV show, its a great format, you guys should approach a production company!
This channel is better than traffic cops
'Digger in The Woods' sounds like a Mark Twain novel.
Or a Rudyard Kipling poem. czcams.com/video/Xs5FR6q9vag/video.html
Honestly love these vids aha genuinely get happy to see them uploaded
Thanks for your comment. The next upload will feature three stolen assets on the same day, coming soon 👍
That moment when the bandits go back for the digger just to find some overgrown stingers lol
Should put up a dummy digger with an explosive device.
Markus Birth a blow up digger
Oh yes! "We wuz robbed!" ROFL
@@ickipoo 😂😂😂
A nice itchy prize
You should use the app "What three words" - maps the entire world to a 3mX3m grid, so easy to tell exactly where you are for recovery trucks or police etc. Lots of emergency services starting to use it, more accurate than postcodes and easier to use than a GPS number location.
Brilliant app,very highly recommended,everyone should have it on their phones.
The guy has got his colleague in the office to give him a postcode for the address, and when the recovery man shows up he can actually use his very own finger and *point* to the digger ffs.
Some dumbass people out there overthinking things. Jesus 🤣
@@MurrayMints The middle of a field/wooded area won't have a postcode, but it will have a GPS location.
what3words.com/
What three words is a good location app. I use it for jobs in the middle of nowhere for my work mates to find my exact location. Great videos by the way 👍
@@sib4897 I've heard that this service is really popular in Europe, but it's almost unheard of in America
this company should have put a wireless motion camera tied to a tree after retrieving the digger, to know who are the thieves.
It's a business area I'm sure there are CCTV around that saw them go in and I bet a car followed them too if they can get the plate # or something
@@79tazman they would probably have fake plates on
That is, if they cared!!! Probably to busy harassing citizens for something.
@@Rat-Builder probably they dont, they are not even implementing an effective solution to never let it happen again.
The thieves dumped it in the woods to "cool off", they let it sit for a week and if it's not been picked up, it's not tracked.
A common tactic, they don't want to run the risk of being caught whilst processing. Guess it works out for them in the majority of cases as the majority of high theft risk machines remain unprotected. However that may change as defence system options further develop
Which is precisely what makes me shake my head about the immediate retrieval... once located you should keep it under surveillance until they come back for it to handcuff them
Put a trail camera up. Easy way to catch someone coming back.
@@rustygolfer3475 The owner probably dont want his high value digger sitting about in a forest, waiting for someone to come back at some later date, 100's of miles from their current location. They just need their equipment back as soon as possible to make money for them.
If you mean they take the digger and wait for them to return, they will be able to spot it gone from some ways away so you need lots of camera's to cover the area and if they come at night when it's dark they will be hard to identify inside a dark forest in camera.
Great recovery, I wouldn’t be advertising on the videos on how the GPS signal is affected by walls or and coverage over the top. Also if you ever develop anything that gets around this, I wouldn’t mention it on here either.
most criminals are opportunists and not thinking things through thoroughly... as for organized crime, well it's 'organized' and likely paying someone to look the other way is part of their operating costs.
It is easy to disable these trackers once you know how to find them. It doesn't exactly take a lot of technical knowledge to do it. There are videos on the channel where the vehicles were never found.
can we appreciate the digger skills!!
Hi bad luck on your last mission them tossing the tracker, funny this one you mention your tasked to recover an excavator ,just as you said it ,"you just passed his big brother lol.
These videos are the main reason I bought into your products , keep them coming...
And no one from the nearby dwellings comes to see what’s going on. Funny that
I can’t express to you the amount of job satisfaction I get vicariously from watching these videos!!! 🤣🖤
Yes keep them videos coming ❤️

@@DukeOfChirk yeah but no but yeah but no but……..
Brilliant tracking to find it in the woods .Thanks for the upload.
It's literally like playing on a GTA V RP server.
At first glance of the thumbnails I thought of Arma rp
Uh huh sure. Go make tip jar bandit three already
Wtf didn't expect to see you here
Thank You Finally More Videos! Been Going Mad Over Here Waiting Like A Young Lad Waiting For His First Shag
That dude driving the digger looks like Hector Salamanca
Christmas has come early...2 uploads in one night. Nice one. Thank you.
Love what you do! Glad your putting vids back up
Made a little personal noise when I saw a new upload. Thanks guys 👍
So many of us love watching these videos of you tracking the stolen items but i think we all wish you upload more videos. We kinda hate having to wait a month for a video! :(
If you steal the tracked vehicles then we will have more videos.
Leicester is a hot spot for plant theft. I worked at the top of that lane in Enderby,at a builders merchant and we were always getting hit with fuel theft from the trucks by the “didies” as they’re known locally or “gypo’s “ to everyone else 😁. That lane was always used to dump hot property as it’s isolated. There’s a gypsy site within 1/2 mile of that location, coincidence? I think not 😕
That's interesting to hear, thanks for your comment 👍
I just cannot get enough of this! Brilliant!
Them takuchis are always on this channel ..keeping Richy Rich in business 😁
I went back to look for my digger that I stole last week and it was gone! You can’t trust people anymore.
There is no honour among thieves.
I don't know why but this is interesting to me. Good job you guys on recovering stolen goods.
CZcams decided I would like to watch this station! How, I do not know but it was right. Must be very satisfying to get items back to their owners x
Yea love these videos, can’t wait to buy something expensive, get this system fitted and wait 🙁🧐
Its better when you buy nice things and your society isnt full of shitheads that try to steal it from you.
Chuck Beef true but it’s better when you catch them 😀I would not steal from me
Well done. Just some general recommendation. Consider 2 redundant GPS modules, one easy to find (even fake) and the real one hard to find. Thus save some time to assembly the screws back.
Very surprised that the insurance companies and police don't communicate and with the help of you fit hidden cameras in this location to await a return of an unhappy scumbag
My suspicion is they live further up that track..... And they are just waiting for it to cool off or not as in this case
Just proves that you need a quality tracker product to get results like this
I love these videos, but leaving me with a huge case of blue balls since I haven't seen you confronting a person in any of them. I would love to see either catching them red-handed, or some kind of aftermath. But I understand. Anyway, great shows!
What the police are for.
uploadJ fuck all.
Most impressed with the driver getting over the ditch.
2 videos on 1 day! legends!
If You Go Down To The Woods Today never know what you might find
I have gotta say you must have some balls to go on there operations alone with no back up plus not wearing any body armour! Because just imagine the scumbags turning up when your recovering! Anyways top job!
I don't call it balls, i call it stupid, i know plenty of people who would just beat the shit out of him and steal his car just for the fun of it. Obviously he has not come across the wrong people yet.
@@horyzengaming3935 At least on this run he had cell service if he got into trouble.
The other one today, where he only found the sending unit, was much more risky due to no cell service.
As I was scrolling through I saw this thumbnail and thought they were airdropping a track joe at first. Lol
No police you might as well call it a free rental with free pickup
You do have to go in on a Sunday to collect it though...
How that guy got the digger across the ditch was class
Why does no one try to catch the people who took it?
literally same.... "ah we don't need police"
I'm so glad that youtube recommended me this channel! I love it!
It would be a heck of a theft if that digger at the beginning of the vid was stolen.
Well done ,great recovery ,they can hide but Automatrics to the rescue again.
You guys want to sponsor an australian who wants to work in uk?
this would be great. love the detective work.
Smart of them to put it in the woods.
Anybody could have put it there, so there's no one to arrest.
They would have left it there for a week and then pick it up.
Yea - well smart.
I'd love to see the thieves get caught red-handed!
love these videos. I want to do this as a career, track down stolen equipment.
So how about instead of taking it out of there you leave it there with and catch the thieves when they return to retrieve the machine?!?!
Facts there’s no justice
You can't really thoughy I'd of just said "I didn't take it just found it here now" Unless they scan for fingerprints- which UK police rarley do expecially for vehicle theft, they just aren't assed enough, theres no evidence
You show the need of both radio and GPS. GPS seems to be easily overcome by thiefs by simply shielding stolen item from the sky. You do a great job even though everyone drives on the wrong side of the road :-)
Think ive found a job I'd love to do :)
I echo most comments with regards to this channel being addictive to watch. Also this would make an incredible TV commission for Dave or Quest. Better than all the other fake narrative shows being broadcasted
A bit of advice maybe invest in a drone.
It would help in mass built up areas.
It would be great if you could have an RAF installed in the drone you could park it on the stolen item from a distance.
Let me know if this is possible please.
Brilliant work well done
Thank you! Cheers!
Gee I'm in admiration of your system and work. Shame the concrete pump recovery didn't pan out.
I hope you called the police to report it because I'm sure there are CCTV around there that would of seen the digger going in and I bet there was a car that followed them in to pick them up after they stole the thing.
And again a great upload & result ! very nice job you people do.
Recovery is fine. Where are the thieves? Whose property was the machine on? No police report? The insurance pays for damage to the machine?
Got to be the crims who thumb down ?? I love these vids 2 in 1 night :-))
Good thing you got that thing back. They were probably planning on stealing atms with it.
Looks like a nice place to store miniature panzers...but unfortunately not good enough... would be great to hide a well camouflaged trailcam on that site to see the disappointed face of the thief...
Missed the updates, made up to find an upload, good work 👍
i really hope these blokes are bringing some heat with them. i know its very unlikely for the thief's to still be around and to even confront them about it if they were. but you never know how desperate some criminals could be and what might drive them to murder.
You called the place everything apart from ENDERBY 🥴
Love the work you do, keep it up!!! Can't wait for move videos to come Ave watched them all 🔥
You could save time with a drone ,i adm ire your dedication ,we need more people with the same drive .it would be nice to see more thieves going to jail .
We have and do use a drone but its a slow process as we have to follow strict operational rules which includes making a fly plan to the same basic detail as a 747.
Maybe a follow up? See how the digger is doing today? If it all right?
How much does one of those things cost?
Should get a 360 camera. would be useful to see where you are looking when driving around etc. like when you went into the farm and looking through the barns etc but we couldnt see that. 360 camera might be useful.
Can the speakers possibly be that good in a small digger to warrant such trouble?
Lol I love living in Leicester. Such a lovely place.
Oh shit, well that's the end of my road lmao
Awesome!
i like this, when the guys who nicked it come back, they'll be like somebody nicked the thing we nicked... lulz
paladro - “‘Ere Mick, they’ve gawn ‘n nicked our nicked loot, so they ‘ave! Cor blimey!”
Didn't you have a video where you tracked a machine in those barns, It looks familiar
Rumbled
If they steal a Takeuchi i would probably just go ahead and let them get away with that one. lol
a real quality service
I would be worried there would be some pikeys hanging about.
There is a pikey site not far from there, it gets raided every so often
I wish your company was operating in my part of the world. Construction equipment & trailers get stolen every week here.
Keep up the good work
Yeah, a new Video :D
Nicely done! ;)
Nice to see the recovery but if the thieves are not caught the problem wont be resolved . It just means they will try elsewhere. Very unsatisfactory in my book.
Do the insurance companies ever pay you guys any commission when you recover a vehicle? Or do you just get what the customer pays for the device and subscription plan?
Nice work! I'd give my left arm to work for a company like this in the US.
It’s been a while, thanks for the upload
testing the off road capabilities of the digger forging across that ditch
Nice find under difficult conditions, well done lads.
