Thank you for the concern but the tornado hit quite a bit further north than where we are. None of the equipment was damaged! 👍🏽

In the UK we carry the 4 slabs, 2 cheek weights, tackle box, big hook block and the mats on a single trailer

I’m looking to get into becoming an operator how do you go about doing it?

How long are your work weeks?

Just curious, what does a job like that cost the customer?

US is sometimes so ridiculous... The boom on a extra trailer....

Yeah we call them boom dollies. Have to have the extra 3 axles in some states. They are super common over here even on smaller cranes

Hey my friend just wanted to ask are mobile crane automatic or manual transmission because I’m getting my license currently and which one should I get? Thank you

Hello Pat, I am a mobile crane operator and I follow you from Spain, one questions, how ,mucho is the annual salary in the USA? a greeting.

It depends. Most of us are paid hourly so your gross is really dependent on how many hours you’re willing to work. I would say it ranges from $70,000 to $120,000usd in the states. Maybe more if you’re running specialty equipment

@@Reynoldscraneservice That tracks with my experience as an operator in the US. Also depends where you’re working in the US. Large costal cities will typically pay better than small midwestern towns obviously. It all equals out after taxes and rent/mortgage though lol

In Toronto, Canada we make $100-200k on average. We are hourly also!

How come you don't stack your weights on the trailer then land them on the deck? 3 part the block and run a pair of 30k endless and you only have to swing once per truckload of weights. I run a 1220-5.2 and it charts 68,000 with no counterweight far enough to load & unload trucks off the sides and rear.

Waste of time to do all that. Putting a 3 part in then taking it right back out to one part for the job. Not to mention all of that is more work for the guys on the ground.

Why would you do a 180 swing at full boom extension?

@@bills6946 that’s how it is in taxi crane. We didn’t place the units where they were, we just set the crane up where we needed to be. That’s a pretty silly thing to get held up on. That’s a brand new LTM 1250. The machine is designed to swing 360* about a million times so that’s what we do when the job calls for it. 👍🏽

Why do you carry the boom on the trailer?

@Reynoldscraneservice

Жыл бұрын

Because it spreads the weight of the machine over 8 axles, rather than only 5. It allows us to abide by specific axle weight requirements for state laws, bridges, etc.

​@gigi-of2tu Europe has much different road laws and weight restrictions than the US. Most states in the US only allow approximately 10 ton per axle. If the gross weight exceeds 10 ton per axle, more axles must be added somehow. Hence the boom dolly. For example in Texas, an LTM-1400 has a weight limit of 90 ton gross so no boom dolly is required, but in Georgia you can't exceed 68 ton gross so we have to remove the boom entirely. It's quite ridiculous, but I will say on some cranes a boom dolly does make the ride much smoother. My LTM-1220 rides much better with a boom dolly than "in the rack" as we call it.

I have ten years experience would you hire me？
