Carter is taking over! LOL. I'm not sure where you are, but I pass at least 2 Carter trucks every day I'm on the road around metro Baltimore / Washington DC.....Ive also noticed that since I got out of a 550 chassis service truck and jumped up to bigger cabinets and 10K crane most of the other bigger service truck guys give a friendly wave in traffic...like I've joined the big boys club! LOL

I liked the Maintainer body when I worked for CAT but did not care for the crane controller. Preferred the IMT I ran before I left and went to Deere

They have updated the crane controls with very sensitive detent buttons and variable speed controls....but the level sensors will drive you crazy!!

Great video. Can you expand on the "no metal to metal contact under 4.5 lbs" ? Assuming thats a safety thing??
@slowaf_12v3 жыл бұрын
Cat had an excess of injuries a number of years ago due to hammer and drifts ( drifts with mushroomed ends) due to that made it so all metal on metal hammer would be disallowed unless under 4.5 lbs

Yep, you can easily get in debt with the tool trucks... I was in debt for around 44k back in 08 when the recession started.. I filed for bankruptcy chapter 7 to eliminate the tool debt. I still own the tools but I would have rather buy other brands much cheaper.
