Brody’s Getting All The Upgrades This Year!!

[@steveeazy18]

I work on boats and big yachts for a living and the pain never ends! Its always more money and then even more money! Boat does stand for bust out another thousand!!

[@jamesmoudy367]

I’ve worked for several farmers over the years and they always seem to disappear when there’s any physical labor needed. Not at Larson farms, they are the first ones to get in there and do the work. Way to lead by example! Keep up the amazing content everyone!

[@Sc-jf3yk]

Sometimes the camera guy beats them.

[@alanbierhoff6831]

Chet’s definition of “We” is Eric and/or Brody while he watches 🤣

[@scotthag1993]

*grain farmers. Larson are just a rare exception for that when it comes to physical labor

Brady got the look of a kid in a sweet shop present, chuffed to bits with his new toy

[@Steeleydad]

You can mount the pump on the truck that you use to pull the trailer the most. That way it won't block any of the trailer bed.

[@henkoosterhof5947]

But than you have to connect the hoses, lift the trailer, disconnect the 5th wheel, put the truck close to the trailer to connect the hoses and lower the ramp. Then you decide if you want the truck close while loading. 7 things you have to do for loading or unloading.

[@alexleklund]

Thats pry why Doug wanted a new trailer with a RGN style vs the laydown neck

[@donkrusenklaus]

Man you buy a guy a gift and he leaves you high in the dark. Dougo I can relate with the B O A T!

[@JoaoPires-pd9ot]

[@perkasch5488]

Chet tell Brody to watch his power washing hoses, or he might hit that switch below. True story, myself and 3 other workers were on top of a 6 by 14 scissor lift, and one of our chords hit the up switch and overrode our controls, which almost pushed us through the ceiling. I was starting to scramble over the edge when the electrician ran over and hit the switch luckily. Good times...

[@BruceBergman]

They can thread the pressure washer hose into the center scissors section and put a remote hose socket on the basket for pressure washer. 12:02

[@jaywest4102]

Help protect your new lift, Get some Silica Gel Desiccant packs to put in box with electronics.

[@memy66]

FYI the 120 volt outlet is just a fancy extension chord built into the sissoring frame. You have to plug it into an outlet in order to have power up in the basket area.

[@garett9510]

It's time for everyone favorite segment - Boating with Captain Dougo.

[@tsparky236]

My advise from having the same situation? Make it so you can put it on any truck and use it that way. If you put it on the back of the trailer and you blow out a tire? You will have nothing then. We just made it so you can put on any truck and it makes it more useable. Hope tha helps? Thannks

[@ivanmills9604]

Cut the deck plate out over the rear axle. Then build a bracket for it to sit on above the rear axle and in between the frame rails. That way you can reach it from the rear to start the motor.

[@user-su8oq6wh5h]

Agree, also the motor and hydraulic tank don't have to stay in that frame, mount them where room permits on a frame you fab up.

[@RandyHunt19]

Chet you made Brody a happy man with that lift, also love Dougo comment bust out another $1000. The end is never in sight! Mount hydraulic unit on the truck that usually pulls that trailer!!!!!

[@warrendemars]

Agreed but they swap trucks fairly often depending what grain they are hauling.

[@deerespetes8849]

Maybe it could be made to swap it out to a couple different trucks as needed. Instead of mounting it on the trailer .

[@carguy7243]

" fun sized man "

[@dalenimz4693]

may I suggest to you all, keep a maintenance logbook for piece of equipment. So when you guys are working on multiple pieces of equipment at one time, you're not flipping back and forth on one book. Also when you sale a piece of equipment its easy to sale and could add more value, because of all maintenance records are kept. If you really go nuts get some digital tablets with maintenance manuals loaded for the equipment, then when you sell print records, and keep tablet for replacement equipment. You can set the tablets up for all kinds of inspections and maintenance issues as well as trends of inferior parts breaking too often. It does take time to set them up, but when its done I believe you're going to love it.

[@gregjames5070]

You don’t even know the difference between sale and sell and yet here you are telling them what to do. I wonder how they ever became a successful multi generational farm without you telling them what to do?

[@BigHeartedMan65]

Do yourself a BIG Favor on equipment logs .. Make one for each one . Growing up my dad ran 4 Asphalt plants and 6 cement plants . as well as a lanf leveling compny that did lots of road building . between it all we had over 400 peices of equipment . We started out like you are now but we found out it was much easier to give each one it's own book . Also if and whe we sold that piece of equipment the book went with ir so the new owners could see what had been done to it over the years ...Dad was very proud of the system I went too.. Good Luck ..

[@Dave-0523]

Why not paint a line on the floor. Then when your backing equipment over the pit, you can line against/along it. Not having to worry about dropping into the pit.

[@Rx37Legacy]

On normal trailers that would work, but with the side extensions on the lowbed you wouldn't be able to see the lines anyway.

[@BruceBergman]

Electric tape will mute the beeper you need a little bit for safety NOT disconnected. 7:47

[@flopster843]

You guys should paint some guidance lines on the outside of the maintenance pit. A stripe on either side immediately outside the wheel tracks will give everybody a quick visual indication if they're centered over the hole.

[@kickingitwithcollinoutlawa2717]

You better prep the bottom of the scissor for pressure washing, the control boards and charger for the water

[@ms1212100]

For all the "s" you put Brody through...he deserves this unit...We Love Brody!!!!

[@devinpeters9161]

That’s called being the new guy, it’s not putting him through “s” it’s what just happened in the fields where you do physical labor🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

[@BobP-yf6qe]

I think Brody was happy, great addition for the wash bay! Thanks for another great vlog!

[@budatkins5917]

Back in the 80's I pulled a LoadKing like that one. The engine and hydraulic pump was mounted between the frame rails in the floor of the trailer right in front of the rear axles. We had several of those trailers and they worked pretty good.

[@dougo5635]

tilt the motor so that you can access the lower unit easier, it's generally not very heavy but you'll need to see better when going back together

[@davidhofman4341]

Have a class on the man lift!!!!! Make sure that if you are operating close to an over head object that someone is on the ground knows without delay how to take control of the unit. When you are at the top of your lift, where you want to work, LOCK OUT THE UP COMMAND. You do not want the lift to get a notch in its belt like one I worked with. The Person was working under a beam when he leaned over the side and moved the up switch. The lift pinched him between the side rail and the beam. NO one on the ground knew how to switch control. We had class every time we worked close to an overhead structure.

[@BruceBergman]

Put horse stall mats on the deck, 🔩 then bolts down to the deck for traction.

[@matthewstevens7114]

Always a joy when the Larsons upload a video!

[@curtisrick]

Yes Eric you can stand on the extension platform with that 19’ lift. Coming from an industrial electrician that has spent years on that same model lift. Been there, done, got the T-shirt. Great video Chet

[@nealhadley1482]

Was an Aircraft Mechanic forbover 20 years on C-130 Aircraft. We had to use that size alot, and thevnext size big,band Snorkel liftsthat would also to to to the top of ehe vertical fin. A lit advice, make sure you use the chain on the back where you climb up. It will save a lot of pain.

[@davidkimmel4216]

Wonderful new addition. It will add lots of safety. Will be used more than you think. 🧐 😊

[@bruceyeager2691]

As a person who uses those lifts all the time they are very sturdy at full height and yes you can stand out on the extension at all heights usually about 400 lbs I do believe

[@randydev1020]

yes i have used a scissor lift like that a lot and bigger ones also, that is great lift and very safe..i am a electrician

[@jacobrobinson175]

I used to take new guys at work up on those things all the way up and just stand on the deck and just shake it back and forth and just watch a freak out have we had a I believe ours was a 50 ft it seemed like 80ft, big one 5x6 deck

[@burtzorn4059]

Make sure you get a good cover made for that unit. It's going eat a lot of dust and grime back there. Nice unit, could have many uses. TAKE CARE GUYS AND STAY WARM !!!!

[@rottaxna6081]

For your trailer I'd build an extention off of the back to hold motor and relocate the tail lights

[@rdint]

Brody has definitely earned the lift. The guy's a beast when it comes to keeping equipment clean.

[@benbrown630]

You should take the new pump apart and make a box for it to fit in. Under the trailer in the space closet to the deck by the brake chambers for the first axle. It looks like enough space to put a shelf to hold the box. You should measure the space and see. From the top of the trailer cut an opening to start and access the pump.

[@prestoncink6724]

Put the motor on the back and run the lines through the center of the trailer

[@soniavriesen4302]

I can see a scissor lift sized door between the shop and the wash bay now. You know, for drying out. Its a just a matter of time. Congrats on your new very useful tool. 👍

[@DEDBRD-di4yj]

AT the Utility I work at there is a program that uses QR codes. You set up a page for every piece of equipment that has all the service info on it. Then you place the QR code on the equipment and just scan the qr code and it goes to the page for that piece of equipment and and you enter in the info.

[@stevebiddle8912]

You aren’t going to believe how much you will use the scissor lift. Best purchase you’ve made in last 2 years!!

[@waynerice1841]

You have room left on the trailer deck in front of your equipment. Make a low profile wheeled dolly, or cart. Start it, hook up your lines, lower ur neck, wheel it down and off the trailer. Can be wheeled to a safe distance and out of the way. Or simply mount it to the truck.

[@timothymatson3318]

Way to go there

I like the random 10 inches of square tube sticking down from the bottom of the trailer.

Brody definitely deserves the lift after all the hassle he gets put through, but he always takes it well. And he knows you are all so well. You guys are fun to watch. And I am with Eric on going up high. The closer to the ground I am, the happier I am. Keep warm.

[@carlmarr2984]

Dougo should put a jet drive on it now that you have the bottom drive off no more rocks in the prop

[@traveller9625]

Living on the Atlantic shore all my life and being around outboards and inboards I'm crackin up watching you guys. You can fix anything related anything inland but this mysterious piece of water kraft got you. Talk to your dealer about converting to a jet drive and be done with props.

[@ryanmello1735]

Can confirm, hire out the lower unit re-install! Did this with an 87 year old grandfather in-law, a 58yr old uncle in-law at the top of a dirt driveway in northern New Hampshire with FAR less tools and know how. It seems simple until you need to get the trans, motor, and both shafts into the same gear while holding, twisting, turning, persuading all of that together at once. Ask me how I know. Also would have loved to have had a seat like Erik while holding all that!

[@mikei2545]

I used to take those gear cases off all the time by myself. Tilt it up all the way and it is a one man job.

[@slowmoneytime1643]

Ladders eventually kill your feet!! Brody your so lucky the farm bought you a scissor lift!!!!

[@rackets001]

We had these JLG scissor lifts at the airline I worked at. Great for working on regional jets with high mounted engines and t-tails. One evening I decided to get a picture of the sunlight hitting the mountains just right from the other side of the airport terminal, my coworkers did the same thing and turned off the basket control. Left me stranded fully extended for a while. At least it was a nice view.

[@kevinkollman7120]

Mount the new pump on the truck. This way you can use it for other stuff also

[@gragor11]

7:50 Yesss. Put the scissor lift on the forklift forks and lift that sucker up for an extra 10 feet of reach. Yea. Considering what those things weigh I'm surprised the fork lift forks didn't deflect more or had the rear wheels lift off the ground.

[@ksfixitmangaming617]

Yes mount it on the truck. Much better idea and way less work and smarter place to put it. You could even make a mount for it and make it portable to go on any of your trucks if needed. Thanks for the video.

[@thelunatick1993]

One step further. Mount so you can remove it from the truck so only exposed to weather when needed. Think a forklift slots for a base.

[@ajmages]

Then why not just put a wet kit on the truck. The reason they are going with this set up is so any truck they have can pull it and it's not limited to one

[@ksfixitmangaming617]

@@ajmages Mounting it on the rear of the trailer will be very hard on it. The roads will beat it to death. There is a reason there is no wet kit on that trailer. If they want to do it the correct way is buy the correct trailer. A detachable one and then one person can do the job.

[@thelunatick1993]

@@ajmages but it is also limiting. Depending upon placement and its mounting the deck is no longer fully available. Storage of this trailer. Does it merit space in a shed before. Will it now with this on board Could this hydraulic equipment be used elsewhere and for other tasks. Be nice but is doubtful that Chet waited for comments before proceeding with this project. Could always do it twice.

[@benklaehn875]

Make a skid that will mount in the position of the deck plate on the trucks. Mount that pump to it so it wont be stuck on one truck and wont limit you on the use of your trailer.

[@mitchlecapoy1909]

I usually do not comment but unfortunately i feel the need here. I am all for just jumping i and figuring it out however those lifts do not like side load, especially if you have a large hose hanging off the side of it, that said, arial work playform training isnt overly expensive and worth the knowledge along with a fall arrest (harness) training for using those lifts. Fall arrest can also carry over to your bin site work. As for the trailer, over the tires you can just run some of your old rubber matting over the tires creating a "mudflap/fender" per say that can flex and you can drive equipment over it. Great video as always Chet! Keep up the great work s always!
