All equipment is tested to do a lot more than it is rated for. Knowing not to exceed the maximum rating is professionalism. Doing it right is doing it best. Excellent job team.

Another interesting video. You do a good job of explaining what's going on so what we're seeing makes good sense to us.

Now that was most interesting to watch and learn about weight and load limits! One wonderful video. Thanks for the post Dustin. 🤝👏🤜🤛

Thanks!

I've hauled those before.. they're HEAVY BUGGERS!!

Another great lift. Thanks for the explanations. For those of us that are not in the business, it gives good clarity.

You can learn something from everyone and every experience, sometimes it is what not to do.

Glad to have you go through the technical aspects of the lift, that makes it interesting.

Nice work fellas. Thanks for sharing.

You've gotten great on your video's. I appreciate them

Hey Dustyn // Mike & Crew !! Great loading with NO marks or damage to the Machine & NO damage to your equipment !! Will there be a video of the off load ?? Have a good week & ""KEEP IT SAFE ""!!

It's dangerous to pull anything over capacity of the equipment. Ive done it before. I've actually had the steer tires of a 25 ton oilfield bed truck off the ground.. a terrifying experience I NEVER want to repeat!! 🙀🙀🙀

It is good to see you guys back on the channel with a new video. I really enjoyed watching this lift.

Thanks ,what was one off the best video I have see in long time ,

That was a tough lift guys! Thanks for sharing and for a more indepth look at the rigging behind the scenes.. Don't often get that with some of the other wrecker channels here on the youtube platform.

Awesome. Thanks for the video.

It takes time to do job right. Outstanding!

Thought of using old fire hose to as protectors for your straps I seen that use on other KZread channels that I watch

Thank you so much for bringing this video to me.

That was a tricky load but you guys got it set on there!

Just started watching yur video's--I like what I'm seeing-for sure. I had about 30 years in the towing/recovery field before I sold out and went in a different direction--but it still fascinates me. Some of the other wrecker video's out now--the workers/other drivers there are all just standing round--waiting for one person, i guess to instruct them. That puts a lot of added stress on each job, in my opinion.

Great Job.....

Very interesting!

Very professional !

Great video and I forgot you do long distance heavy hauling.

I'm just a retired millwright but I really questioned that other forward lifting point.

you do know that just before those cargo loaders come from the factory that they apply all those stickers marking lift points .

As my grampa always said " the day you know everything is the day you die ""

Something new

Seems that on the 1st rigging you were almost at the center of gravity. No wonder the tator was picking most of the load.

those pick points are decaled on there for a reason good lift

That’s what we said

Show us the the green shows us the green.

Sometimes I see drivers connect endless loop directly to hook Sometimes use clevis why

By marrying the hooks on the rotator, didn't you lose Roll control of the load? You didn't gain any capacity, but you did gain some finer control on winch speeds. I presume you determined that finer winch speed control was more important than Roll control. Cool video!

We did it so when you wire in you control both sides evenly

How is that thing driven or is it remote controlled

I have a question?? Who set that thing right up next to the curbs with the front side piece on ???

I’ve unload the same machine for ups and the one I did the total weight was 61,800

Nope

Really wish you would wear a helmet cam when recording videos. For example. When you’re driving we’re not looking at the bottom of the steering wheel. And when you’re operating the switches on the rotator. It would be really nice to see what switches you’re flipping. Instead of looking at the bottom of the control door. And when you’re doing things above your head it would be nice to see what you see. Don’t get me wrong. I do enjoy the videos and I have always given thumbs up on every video. It would just be really nice to see what you see.

I would love to see that too, I hope they can Incorporate that in the future. One channel I watch, most of the time when they are wearing head sets, they add that audio into the video.

When you marry the hooks like that you only need one hoist, not both at the same time?

@michaelseverson9809

2 жыл бұрын

When you marry the hooks you get even line load throughout the entire rigging setup. You still have to use both winches to lift evenly. If you use only 1winch that side will rise slightly before the other side follows.

I have always been under impression "marrying the hooks" was NOT safe or recommended from tow Industry officials/instructors. And why not run 2 3part lines? Intriguing machine.

@@michaelseverson9809 I'm not 100% sure I understand the math, I appreciate your explanation.

I know I don't know anything compared to you guys, but .. your rigging concerns me. you have nothing staticly hooked on that heavy end. the cable leaves the boom, goes through a pulley at the snatch-block, another pulley at the boom (the two 'married' hooks) another pulley/snatch-block, and back to the boom. That arrangement as far as i can tell has nothing to keep one hitch point from rising up and letting the other drop, the whole load rolling in the rigging . . . . I know the OTHER end of the load is being balanced by two staticly hooked winches but it still seems like it's not constrained enough, to me. am i missing something?

It wouldn't work with a badly balanced load but it is great for safety on a load like this.

it keeps the load balanced on each side of the boom, keeps it from twisting
