Now I know. I suspected it all along. It's nice to see and hear a fellow Christian out hear. I enjoy your videos, the common sense and decency that you display. I have my biopsy the 11th with Dr consultation 10 days afterwards. I'm still hoping to get back out there, even at 68 yrs of age. Take care, God bless.
I said it before, you should be the motivational speaker for new hires. You always tell it like it is. Again appreciate your time and effort and STAY SAFE
Very insightful Jimmy. I was trained on a 3 hole with no top air. So when i was disppatched a 4 hole mac like yours i really didn't know what to do with that. Soon i figured out didn't have much use for it myself. Keep it up appreciate your time. The low rpm was a good tip as well.
Pneumatic tank work is not a lazy man's job. There's a lot of little nuisances involved with the pneumatic tank. It takes years to continually learn the craft to be efficient. Once a driver learns safe shortcuts to maximize time and learn how to set up the blower and trailer to unload different products, a driver can make very good money whether you're an owner or company driver. Being a pneumatic tank driver myself for more than 20 years plus, company driver status. I've learned and still everyday learn with pneumatics is never ending. On a very busy week, I'll easily move, unload 500 tons off the trailer. On slow week maybe half that total. If you work, you simply make money, if you don't work, the pockets will be light. I'm a local pneumatic tank driver, home every night. Work a few Sundays in the month. Great video, stay safe 👍
Iran u-matic tank for 16 years just retired in April and all the young guys they want to do thousand RPMs 12:00 1 valve all the way open the other one half way they think they're blown off faster and all they do is have problems slower you blow off the faster it goes
The shave thing is ridiculous and the company loses out on hard working individuals like myself who will never shave my beard for a career but im a work horse
A little suggestion When mting 4th hopper to front if for some reason you are unloading and you need to detach for the trailer if the back compartment is mt and the front is still loaded it will make the nose heavy When unhooking it could go down on the nose

For sure. I also always prefer a lower rpm to allow more product into the line. Thx Allen!
Happy Birthday, driver.
Thank you Mark!

A little suggestion

When unhooking it could go down on the nose
Indeed!! I unload 4,1,2,3 in that order. If I have to release a plug I want 4 empty first.
How much they pay at week?,+ -
Net $3k-5k. Sometimes more. All owner operators no company drivers or lease purchase.
Do you have to drive only manual trucks to get on with Oakley? I got ripped off a while back and can only drive autos.
You can drive whatever Trans you want. Some aren't compatible with Oakley's pto though but many are, so keep that in mind.
Wait 757 mi in a day?!?!?!? How with 11 hr drive time
