Love the narration... "if ya dont follow the safety rules"

"The hard way is, well... kinda messy." As someone who lives near some of the most struck overpasses in the country, hoo boy is this true.

[@Billycarl71]

Its never a waste of time to clean the tracks no matter how big or small of a company you are , one loose rock can kill someone . Chaining to the frame of a machine is always better but the tracks are ok also

[@craigbondy74]

When putting a load on wider than deck should always flip out side extensions

[@scummybagger4213]

Two points to live by. One, if there is more than half the tracks or wheels are hanging over the sides outriggers are mandatory. Two, if your hauling a dozer with a blade 12 feet wide or more. The blade must be loaded to the rear of trailer. Couldn't see it well enough in video. But one of the dozers they drove on forward looked like it had a 12 foot blade.

Thank you for this video. I learned a lot.

reading up on how they transported SR-71 prototypes by truck to their testing ground is basically this to the extreme.

SAVES THE TURBO FROM DAMAGE DO TO WIND SPINNING THE TURBO WITH NO OIL PRESSURE

[@aaronabney8924]

hellbilly hellraiser Thats a old wise tell the air going down the exhaust isn't enough to spin the turbo I've been pulling RGN for 4 years never once had a problem

[@brian2826]

With the baffles in the muffler on most exhaust systems as well as non direct travel for air around curves and bends in the exhaust pipe. It's extremely unlikely that you'd ever Spin a turbo on a new machine. I've never had it happen in 12 years.

The narrator sounds like Hoyt Axton. He died in 99 but this film was likely produced a few years before the release date.

[@InjunOutdoors]

Is that Al from Home Improvement acting as the spotter????? : )

[@Del-Canada]

Looks like him. But Al was already pretty famous by the time this film came out. That was a good show.

American Truck Simulator: Lowboy Trailers Brought me here.

[@pauleyperrettefan117]

yea i hook the chains to the tracks all the time. it works a little better and its quicker.

[@pete359ext]

@bleedeye101 Yah its prety common at the company i work for we use the tracks to tie down the equipment and if theres eyelets then we use them but the tracks seems to work good havent lost a machine yet.

[@nchayfarmer]

You do not chain to the tracks on any piece of equipment they can and will move and they bend very easy (learned the hardway bent the hell out of a track on a d7 wide track) theres always better and actually faster ways than a binder from the track to the side of the trailer.

[@scummybagger4213]

Routing on permits is not the responsibility of the drivers ,,, even owner operators. You call permit company and let them know what you're hauling and it's weight and dimensions and where you are going to and from and they figure out all the particulars.

[@bmack7762]

Good to know. I'm leaving LTL and starting construction this summer. First time lowboy driving for me. I'm looking forward to it but a little nervous even though I've been driving for 5 years...

[@nerdyclown6393]

@@bmack7762 hey there! How has your experience been? Any tips you can share with me?

[@bmack7762]

@@nerdyclown6393 It went very well for me although my company trained me for one day Haha. I had to learn a lot on my own, especially loading the equipment on myself never having seeing the machine before in my life, but was successful. If I had to give any advice it would be to make sure you take your time and really think about what your doing before you do it!

[@bleedeye101]

Is hooking chains to the track the usual thing to do? I've never been involved in loading heavy equipment, but it seems like it would be better to hook to eyelets on the body of the machine. Maybe hooking to the track is in addition to eyelets.

[@Sdukes001]

This is awesome information

[@blainekopp8988]

Time of year, frost cold iron decks on trailer!! the dirt on the eq. tracks and the bed??

[@meseahunt]

good video

[@farmerrichard1448]

Keep making these

[@archie977]

porportionation is key

[@internazisuite]

Making a good point about center of gravity with these machines but to control that you cut the angle on the ramp coming up using wood blocks and old mud flaps or conveyor rubber..that way the tracks are never up in the air and come down hard which can spit a track roller? maybe im fron another planet but thats how i did it and never lost one

[@zhentrixcalipso2738]

25 ton crane?

[@melbrixbacudo7208]

Here in the philipines we dont nees spotter,your going to know its not right when the equipment is already upsidedown

[@MrDriftspirit]

the people who produce those safety instructions do only think theoreticly and have no clue how hard it is to lead a own small company. you can`t wait for better weather or clean up the tracks in front of loading or anything else.if you do so at each site, you can close your company after a few month when cash has ended.

[@MrDriftspirit]

ingermany its forbidden to save tracked vehicles at the tracks with chains or anything else. they`re not created for load saving. you have to lock the chains anywhere at the frame or the shield or the cabin if the producer says in his instruction book that its ok.and what should you do at loading when you have a semitrailer with a height of 80cm and a construction site where the fllor isn`t plain and the tracks are muddy or snowy.

[@MrDriftspirit]

and if every thing is save, no one destroys something, injures himself or others, for what the hell is there a medicall equipment and recovery industry for hundrets of billions of billions of dollars! what will then all the people on the overcrowded and unemployed doctors and nurses do!?

11 years ago you “might” get away with hooking to track 2023 will get you a violation every time Did you notice how much that shoe moved as he was tightening the binder? Imagine what would happen if you were rolling and had to perform an evasive maneuver. I’ve seen em snap off

[@wi11y1960]

I know what it does, yet does anyone see it being done in the video?

[@MegaCamshaft]

the way i do it is,,,,if its a short move,,(haul),,,i'll just boom the tracks down,,,,,but if its a long move,,(haul),,,i'll boom the tracks down and chain the rippers down and the blade,,,,,i really dont like useing a chain cause the chain gives,,,,it streches and ratchet booms dont

[@jiangtaoliuzade-evc]

不错的视频！

[@Deredeo]

um....clamping the equipment to the trailer by the tracks just can't be right...

[@Pistachio.Disguisey]

Yep thats right

[@McGillicutty88]

Is it legal to just use a binder from the track to the rail on the trailer. Or do you need a binder and a chain.

[@cesar9496]

Yes it's legal.

[@gregbaker2278]

It's ok, but not the safest! A chain should be added because binders break b4 the give, and a chain will give a bit!

[@19501952]

Shouldn't be using the tracks as a anchor point
