Mounting the Ezyloader & First Operation
This video shows how I went about installing the EzyLoader 300MH on my flatbed truck. I discuss mounting it to the deck, the underneath cross-bracing, and the electrical side of the EzyLoader installation. #flatbedtruck #silverado #silverado5500 #chevy #chevrolet #forklift #beekeeping #beekeeper #ezyloader #ezyloader300 #ezyloader300mh #beetruck #beewagon

First, we start off reviewing some modifications made to the truck such as extending the frame and adding a fuel tank. Next, after installing the flatbed, toolboxes are mounted along with the red beekeeping lights and other small finishing touches. Lastly, I do a quick review of the full build. #metalfab #flatbedtruck #silverado #silverado5500 #chevy #chevrolet #forklift #welding #welder #mille...

At the end of last year I purchased three new batteries for my motor home it is a Diesel pusher . It takes three 8D batteries. Two of them are deep cycle an the other one is just a regular 8D . $$$$$$$$$. Does that loader have a automatic leveler on it or was that switch to level it manually each time you setup??.

    I like your idea on the color . You have done a great job designing an building. I was a heavy equipment mechanic for forty seven years before I retired an there is two things (1) in your electrical box you put at the back to tie your wiring harness together I do not care if they have a gasket or a o-ring for the cover on the box . I would highly suggest putting electrical grease on your wiring connection bolts because moisture will get in there . ( 2) The only thing I do not like about it is the truck is not in my Driveway for me to use . LOL HAHA. Thanks for the update you did a great job an I sure hope you get a lot of use out of it.

    Did you watch @aCanadianBeekeepersBlog video about him building his new bed for his easyloader? He ran into a couple hitches while building his that he had to work around. While I would want the boom in the back of the bed so I could do trailers, you do have a couple good points. Advantages of doing it your way, better gas mileage, better stability being in center of truck mass, less likely to back into something with it, better visibility behind truck and no being just that half an inch too short on the bed as you could overhang if need bee. I don't think you are overthinking things at all, better slow and steady than to run with it to have to redo it.

  • @kathyhathaway8823
    @kathyhathaway8823 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    All getting on the way . By lowering the bed what will your distance be between bed an tires with a load on it . Just a idea I know your easy loader will be braced but I have saw the steel on the bed crack an split from vibration so heavier built is a lot better than under doing your bracing an the thickness of the bed plate . The loader is tall an narrow . Also on the back I would go at least a few inches longer than you need for your pallets to set on the bed . Just a thought. Thanks for the update.

    Just how in the crap did that not set that completely on fire when the wax started burning 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. Well if you need a medium super you have got one now by just cutting the bad bottom off . Have you got your new truck in service yet??. Thanks for the update. Thanks

      Getting closer on the truck. Dealing with the fire set me back about 3 weeks
