An interesting and intricate job. Hard work. Could have used some help. Doug really knows his job. I'm retired, now, but if I could start again I'd choose heavy equipment instead of mindless, boring masonry work.
Dispatch wants to know how soon you can get back to the CAT Plant. They got another 88 to move going to the same place. Oh, and just use those permits over again! 😂
I’m from Oklahoma, when I 1st started driving I always thought that I would like to do heavy haul, ended up doing hazmat. Most of the fellows I have seen they load up the jeep not the booster, oh well 1 is as good as the other. I do have a question where do you work, that might make a difference. Thank you Sir for your video, very nice.
Personal choice. I prefer to load the booster because there are less steps involved if you need to back up with just the jeep. With the booster on the ground you need to get out, walk back and fight with the locking pin in order to back up
Yes it pays better than regular transport but not enough for what we deal with everyday. The guys who get into heavy haul just for the money don’t last.
Belle Job! (Nice Job!) Il faut être patient et méticuleux pour rien oublier....😀 (You have to be patient and meticulous so you don" forget anything...) Bravo!
That's a awesome piece of equipment I just don't like the joystick controls I want a steering wheel. There ok once you get used to them but I want a wheel
did not understand why you pulled the beam trailer out from under the cat loader ,never seen that before .take care I enjoy all the videos watched so far.👍👍
Even this big loader doest have enough ground clearance underneath to clear the beam. We need to drop them on blocks and you have a choice to make a ramp with more blocks or pull the trailer. You really only need to pull it about 10-15 feet but it looks better on video when you pull it all the way 😉
@@luckybananaheavyhaul3407 ,,,question when pulling the beam/booster out: is the bogey equipped with automatic brake-cagers? ...as in, normally when you disconnect the supply airline, the parking brakes apply. Considering you hooked the pull-chains to the tractor-bumper, how did you release the parking brakes (or, can you supply air to release the parking brakes from the brake-chambers?)..
@andrep8287 before disconnecting I install a ball valve on the emergency brake glad hand keeping the air in the system to keep the parking brake released.

I love the way America does stuff! Those trucks, machines and not to mention the work ethic! We in the UK are lagging somewhat, though hopefully catching up! Semper Fi USA!
I agree for safety reasons. Accidents can happen, wooden blocks can break, a foot can slip. Unfortunately these companies are all about safety until they can save some money.
Um you took the back dolley off why not stack the front jeep (or whatever its called) on as well. Interesting getting trl out from under. How you load it though special area or just back it on with wood the entire way?
Loading we usually get another loader or forklift to push the trailer under. Those 12 x 12 hardwood blocks are heavy and it’s a lot of work to put wood all the way. I only removed the back dolley because my annual permit allows me up to 30 meters long in Quebec. By only removing the back dolley I’m short enough to move legally without additional permit and escorts.
@gavinperry7237 Quebec heavy haul restrictions are much different than the rest of the world ( don’t blame me, I just live there) often loads need to be transferred onto different trailers with different axle configurations.
Je me suis toujours demandé c'est quoi l'avantage d'un derrière de fardier aussi long? Être flush aux roues avec un booster plus long ne donnerais pas le même résultat ?? Merci pour le vidéo 🤟🤟
Ça prends 14 pieds entre les deux set de roues pour avoir doit à plus de poids. Ils appelons ce style de remorque une California 9 ( même ci on a changé le jeep 2 pour un jeep 3 )
@danielcollins....like any other commodity....you check it over for pre-existin scratches, scuffs or other damage at time of pickup (when in doubt, mark it as damaged), and hope that by the time you arrive at the consignee, the results are still the same! You likely did notice, that Doug placed a (rubber/plastic) cover over the CATs windshield.
On actual hook points like tow hook I don’t bother but if I’m going to chain over a freshly painted axle or frame than I will put padding under the chain to keep scratches minimal.
