Give the truck driver a prize. Well done mate for the reversing job!!!

[@ao2528]

Trailer driver deserves a medal, amazing backup driving skill, not even one small wrong backing move in such a tight place.

[@Gonzarelli]

@Thierry Kamette Take that back, he's a hero

[@stumpusMaximus]

He’s paid and trained to do that in his sleep. There’s no room for error once that load is on and he’s reversing into a site. It’s just a simple “get another driver, this one is crap”

[@JambalayaJimmy]

Its wild how big this looks in a city setting. In an open pit mine this would be a small loader, its all about perspective. Volvo make great machines though, I've always loved operating their excavators.

[@bex0slime251]

their semi-trucks are great as well, and even some cars

[@nmelkhunter1]

I like the part where they back up the truck, secure the wheel loader and drive away. So, pretty much the whole video!

[@jacobs6865]

I run a L350. Phenomenal loader with great features. We replaced our two Cat 988s with two new L350s. Night and day difference.

[@TheJimmybud]

nice and quiet too !

[@tomasneel1980]

Like kamatsu, this machine will be in the bone yard in ten yrs while those 988s will still outperform and still be running..

[@jacobs6865]

tomas neel negative. Now komatsu is shit. I’ll agree on that. But I see plenty of older Volvo’s still rockin.

[@namnami4099]

@@jacobs6865 well im rocking a wa1200 and it had like 10 midlife services and its still doing great. so i wouldnt call it shit... 2010+ volvos are bad. worse than komatsu and much worse than cats.

[@ShredForth]

I’ve ran G/H series 988s with 50-60000 hours on them that are still doing 12h shifts digging in granite/loading/feeding plant….. this machine will never last that long or be as reliable. We’ve tried Komatsu, Volvo, Deere, Leibherr, Doosan….. nothing comes close to CAT for longevity or reliability. I’ve seen C series 988/980 loaders still doing full shifts. No Volvo will ever do that.

Never stand in the line of danger. The guy guiding him on the trailer should have been further back, not under the bucket. You've been doing something for so long, complacency tends to set in. And that's when injuries are death occurs. Just a reminder! Great video.

[@scottrjmatmsncom]

Thoughts while watching video 1. My god the driver is good and backing that thing up 2. That front loader is huge 3. When are we going to be able to get our hands on one of these front loaders in Farming Simulator 4. You don't see to many trucks with twin steering 5. Can't just press R3 to put on the straps 6. That thing is still huge

Can somebody please confirm whether there is any load imposed on the last pair of axles on the lowboy trailer- it doesn't seem logical that any weight actually gets transferred onto them? Thanks from the UK.

[@VaporheadATC]

Yes. Portion of the load is transferred onto the wheels as there are also used for steering.

[@xreconusmc3156]

tl50camiva thanks for your incredible question. My rear axels not only steer but move to also transfer weight. Great question

[@Retired88M]

It’s amazing how we transport equipment here in the states all stretched out with do much spacing between axles and then you look overseas and they would have all the same amount of axles all under the load in a bunch. Or is this out bridge formula?

[@mikewhipkey6863]

Bridge formula... but every state has different regulations that make it more difficult than it should be..

[@bigdog8815]

Uk also uses wheeler type trailers(one axle is 8 tires) like we use in the west, allowing for better weight distribution and lower length, but not all areas recognize them

[@saherselim9841]

It's hard for me to believe that the stingers that trail the main trailer support much weight.. looks like a gimmick.

[@Tcooks92]

Just happen to come across this and since I’m sitting on the toilet, I have the time. The stingers are shimmed so it forces weight to them. You could in theory snap them off by doing it incorrectly. You also get validation when you scale them out. There are quite a few videos on KZbin explaining this process. A lot of guys mess things up running trial and error simply from not knowing what size or when to use certain shims, but it’s certainly not a gimmick.

[@themayorofdipshittery3646]

I’d be wanting outrigger boards under those tyres.

[@C8mon]

Yeah I was wondering about that it doesn’t even look like the trailer is set up with outriggers. I’ve never floated a rubber tire machine that wide so I can’t speak from experience. Obviously Volvo hire this guy to float their brand new L250 so they must have faith in him lol. The sag in those tires makes my blood pressure rise looking at it.

[@bigdog8815]

On a stiff tire machine like that, outrigger boards arnt necessary, it just looks good, it isn’t til you get into the low ground pressure and soft tire equipment that you’ll see the deflection in the tire
