Found one in the park with the keys in. Watching this RN. BRB
Tempted
Car park meaning ‘building site’
@@kyristhomas5065 lol
Was it being used to build a gym for a church?
@@ANDCFC95 lost your telehandler mate?
You did excellent on tutoring. First thing every day walk around the machine check oil, tires, mirrors and fuel level. In cold weather let the machine idle for 10 to 15 minutes depending on how cold it is. So the engine and hydraulic fluid can come up to running temperature. If load is unstable strap it to the head frame. Carry your load with forks slightly turned up. Better to have your load shift backward to the headframe. Always place the forks on the ground when finish. Watch for overhead POWER LINES. A spreader bar can be used for longer loads if necessary. The Skytrak 10054 wheels need to be in the parallel position to disengage the crab steering. You need both hands on the steering wheel for sudden impacts on rough terrain. You are prone to a wrist injury when using a brody knob in this situation.
it's been awhile but i used to drive the telehandler for construction company. when lifting things always be as close as you can without booming the arm out. that goes for whether you're lifting something or putting it back down somewhere. you always want to make sure that the ground you are working on is quite solid as well. you do not want to boom 2000lbs 20ft into the air and find out it's not solid. you will topple over to one side or the other with even the slightest amount of collapse of the ground ( some telehandlers have outriggers and some don't). i used to love driving them.. it's like driving A big 4 X 4 monster truck in the mud (most job sites were muddy)
Cool. Watched this with my 2 year old, he loves heavy machinery. Explained so well he’s ready to jump in and lift some stuff!
This is the most versatile machine I've ever seen in my life. Holy Molly!
lol...not sure I agree with that...but ok. It has a pretty specific purpose, only for moving materials around so it really can't do a lot on a job site other than that...so not too versatile.
@@HeavyMetalLearning Correction: you can fit other things than a fork on the front, for example, a simple bucket to turn it into a loader, great when it snows heavily and you need a clear working area.
You can also fit a brush to clean the road after wintertime.
Must be a few other uses that I'm not thinking of
@@HeavyMetalLearning pretty rude way to answer someone on your video.
@@aggi999 We use ours at work for everything from plowing snow to loading and unloading flatbeds. This guy is a joke lol
@@HeavyMetalLearning can attach a bucket, bale grabs, bale spike, your loader forks, claw grabs for large logs, the list goes on pretty far. Proving you wrong and a rude dude
You are so good at what you teach.
Great video I’m pretty confident I can hope in one with no experience based on this video.
Great video as always, Good to see you in a CAT 😎. I love using these machines . The crab steering feature is awesome.
Thanks for the comment!
I've used a JLG and a Claas telehandler on 2 different dairy farms. They are great for unloading hay trucks and the bucket is a lot more versatile than a regular tractor with a front end loader. We even moved a shed with the Claas recently! Great video bud
Hey Thomas! I’m about to move a shed with one, any tips?
@@mazookah The way we did it is we parked a tractor with a front end loader and a square bale of hay on the forks and had it raised so the roof of the shed was resting on the bale. And then on the other half of the shed we did the same thing but with the telehandler and also a bale of hay on it. So we moved it in 2 seperate halves. I suggest to not do it on a windy day as the shed will act like a kite 😅
Excellent work 👏 helped understanding how to run this
I am your big fan and I watch all your videos
Great Vid sir!! 👍 keep up the GOOD JOB!!!
Thanks for the video….helps big time 👍🏽
Oh man that engine sound! I'm really missing my Cat TH417 now. Another video please!
sounds good....we actually have a few videos coming out in the next several weeks with this machine.
@@HeavyMetalLearning WOOOOOT!
Nice video! You guys have a great variety in your fleet!
Thank you very much! Many are borrowed from other contractors, but we like to have this variety on the channel.
@@HeavyMetalLearning I love that you're trying to teach the new generating coming in. This is needed badly in the industry.
Love the video, thanks
Just started a job at division 5 steel yard. Operated many pieces of equipment over the years, needless to say, lot or respect to guys who run proficiently and safely.
The crab steering is so cool!!
Thanks. Got a five day course on Monday.
Good luck
@@HeavyMetalLearning thanks
How can I learn this?
@@Emperorkovic Search online for a training company. If you are in the uk you'll need to be trained to a standard and in the uk there are two governing bodies that you get a card with your picture and what you've passed. You'll need this to show on a construction site.
The two governing bodies are NPORS or CPCS. Both are as good as each other. So a training centre will train you to one of those governing bodies standards. The 5 day course is about £1500. But there are grants available.
Error at 6:08. You said “43’ reach” Your unit doesn’t have a 43’ reach. You meant it has a 43’ lift height. Good, thorough video, by the way.
Great job
Thanks!
Thank you. For the video
For you to take the time. To teach us.
Nice sir ❤️
Thank you
Awesome video! they should make a remote control toy tele handler, it would be awesome!
Thank for this video and want to learning mobile crane for beginner
Cheat me a mobile crane
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Great video. I’m doing my ticket for one of these this week for mining works. I great to have a bit of back ground knowledge before starting the course. 👍
😎 cool!thanks.
I'm interested in this mechine I love the inside
6:20
It’s a bit similar to a skid steer. “In” is curl, which keeps the dirt “in” the bucket
I’m an excavator operator at a small company. Occasionally, I will need to run our Mecalac in skid steer mode, but it’s not frequent enough for me to always remember which way it’s supposed to be set (the Mecalac has a switch that can make the dump/curl be reversed if you choose). In to keep dirt in will be a good reminder for me. Haha.
I like this and I want to learning a mobile crane
JCB telehandlers have the bucket controls as the stick movements from side to side.
Yeah, I've seen lots of variety on the different control configurations.
Trying to go for my test within the next 3 months
How'd it go
Thank you. I’ve got a jawb interview on monday.
For a car dealership?
Any videos on a straight mast forklift
nice vid . this channel have all sort of things in it but not a single wheel excavator :) . i am nat operator or export but i noticed the wheel excavator is mach less comment in USA !
yeah...not a lot of wheeled excavators in the US. But maybe we can find one for a vid. Essentially the same as an excavator though, just changing the undercarriage.
@@HeavyMetalLearning yeah its same but locking at all the content in this channel i feel its missing this :) . am a fan and can't wait for the next vid .
if u want to make it special (which i love to see)
1- can do a 2 piece boom
2- the dumping trailer hocked in the back of it
3- a blade in the front
3.5241 something different color than yellow . nat sure about that one but i think it's going to be cool as well :)
4- tilt rotator attachment as well maybe ?
mach love & keep the good work my friend
Curious, do the rear wheels stay in whatever position they are when switching back into 2 wheel steer? For example, if you are in 4 wheel steer and turn then put it in 2, do they self center?
No, not on this model they don't.
I am yet to see/operate a telehandler that does that and I've worked on two types of Manitou, 2 types of Merlo and one annoying JCB
I drive jcb 541-70 agrisuper and 525-60 agripro
Both have the option to switch the steering modes while driving
If you are in 4 wheel an switch to 2 wheel the back wheels lock in the center as soon as you cross over the center. If you are turning to the left and switch you have to turn right until the back ones are straight and then the lock in automatically.
Could be specific to the agricultural versions of the Tele handlers because the boom extension and the curl are switched as well in my machines
More vedio pls.
Hello do you know what would cause a bobcat 430 mini excAvators rpm”s to not rev up ?
no clue....maybe someone else might answer.
Do ypu have to be stopped to shift gears
Is an old Skylift extended forklift considered a telehandler?
Yes, at least that's what I would call it. If it's a material handler (like forklift forks on it) AND it has a telescopic arm (meaning it can extend out away from machine) that is technically a telehandler.
Tell us how we make brak system of it
How can I learn this please?
Great bos 🙈😂
Those boom controls aren't standard! Even on my CAT th407 .
Joystick controls....
Back....boom up
Forward...boom down
Left...curl
Right...dump
2 rocker switches
Left forward..boom out
Left back.. boom in
(Or used for attachments)Right back... coupler pins unlock
Right forward/back..coupler pins unlock/lock
Trigger button is F.N.R.
Only other style I've seen is the jcb loadall from early 2000s with 4 directional levers and the 2 for stabilisers.
interesting...I have not seen that configuration on any TL I've been in. But like I said in the video, it is interesting that TL controls are not nearly as standardized across the brands, lots of variations. The controls you mention sound similar to a telescopic skid steer, like the JCB or Volvo I have run that have the arm extension on those rocker switches. Thanks for sharing.
@@HeavyMetalLearning Manitou does thi same thing. Basically loader controls with boom out being a thumb switch.
Please we want controls of mobile crane too
We’ll see what we can do. Thanks for the comment!
7:15 up it tilts right. Down it tilts right?
It is a left/right thumb toggle switch
Interesting. I have just finished a course and they said never use 2 feet. Right foot only , never your left.
Machine price sir
Hi good morning that is my job in jamaica
The cab looks exactly like a JLG, even the controls and buttons are exactly the same.
Thanks for the comment!
woooah thats a big handler
half of screen is blocked by the boom
i see a lot of JCBs and Manitous
thanks for the comment
Lorne Armstrong approves this video...
Sir how Are you ? Sir please make one video Jcb 540-170 ful review
If we get a hold of one we’ll do it...thanks for the comment!
Thumb roller should always be for boom extension. Pretty sure it’s written in the bible somewhere
Lol...agree
I just lied about having experience I need this job 😅
Did you get the job
@@marcusanthony470 no I didn’t but I did get to drive the truck did well but the guy knew I needed more training to leave me at a site alone
😎🖤💯💪🏿
No out riggers on this one??
Most likely an agri spec one. Light weights (hay bales) stacked high. You wouldn't go lifting pallets of bricks on full height with this
Yeah, not on this one. I think it may be an option but just depends on how far out you need to extend (and weight lifting) as to whether you would need outriggers. Obviously they are an expensive option to have on the machine so don't add unless needed.
@@HeavyMetalLearning Every one Ive operated has always had them. Just feels odd to me. Like leaving the house without your keys or your wallet.
Ran a brand new $200,000 JCB all week couldn't believe there was no armrest on the joystick very uncomfortable
Can I get a job in the USA
Peals Teel us about system of brak in this how we make it
I wouldn’t recommend using both feet,basically is like u driving a automatic car so use just the right foot i guess
I can do this work. Which country is this? Call me. I am coming to work. I am from Nepal.
Lol i have the License but i forgot how to operate this machine 🤪🙃🤣🤣
Yow
thanks....I think
I Drive a nissan 90 give her the onion bro
bullshut
I just want to know how to start the damn thing
terrible vue on the right
Way to much saliva when talking . . . Very unproffesional . . . 😂😂😂
Why is he wearing sunglasses? As a heavy machine operator myself, that's not just dumb, it's verging on criminal stupidity.
Totally agree...way better to be blinded by the sun when operating! Good call!
Being able to see is criminal stupidity? Even forklift drivers doing yard work wear sunglasses if the sun is in the right place the glare means you cannot see, if you cannot see you cannot move, if you do move and cannot see you could kill someone. THAT is criminal stupidity. Knowing a thin piece of cheap plastic could of saved someone else's life.
