A big thanks to you kev for showing me how to do manual entries. I've seen many YouTube videos most over complicated I couldn't understand . But your explanation I got it straight away fantastic cheers mate.

After all the stuff ive done regarding getting my license, nothing has covered on how to use a tacho machine. Thankfully, we have youtube and people like yourself. Thank you.

Thanks for this video, I've had my class 1 license for a year but was never shown how to do this during my driver training with the school same with load securing other than the quick 5 minute test for my CPC. Only ever got a brief show how to use a tacho 8 odd months ago during work experience. Been finding it hard to actually get a job because of my lack of experience, companies don't want to touch me because of insurance costs and I'm too big of a risk to them and agencies just expect me to go and do work knowing everything without proper training or mentoring. Thanks again though for getting straight to the point with it all and showing us newbies.

One of the most important parts of driving and learning but sod all whilst taught gaining your licence.

Thanks for taking the time to upload 👍

Very well explained. Thank you.
I start back driving today after around 6 months off. So needed a recap of this.. 👍🏻

[TobiasRieper]

Thanks Kev!
Doing my own truckers license course and are through two of the three exams. I figure I'd do a bit of pre-work on how Tachographs work, just to get ahead of how this all works.

So far it seems fairly easy as long as you know what you're doing.

Thanks once again, wish you many safe trips! 🚛💪🏻

Hi Kev, I’m a professional musician as my main income at weekends, I did my CPC in full in 1 week last year, I’ve got a digi tacho card and I’m starting a part time driving job next week, only 2 days per week driving a 7.5 tonne (8 to 10 drops a day) crapping myself about using a tacho 😂 not driven 7.5 tonne since 2011, I’m told the job is no more than 10 hours per day starting around 7am when I arrive on site - think your video will save my life

[JamesBrooks]

Ok this actually made sense! I started today and had no idea. I am pretty sure I’ll have infringements with my manual entries. Driving and breaks I was spot on with. I didn’t even know how I got past all the manual entry stuff!

Love it straight to the point .
Passed my class 1

I'm an American driver, we have what's called an ELD, it's a tablet that's hardwired into the truck and usually bolted to the dash, it's quite interesting to see how other countries do things in regards to hours regulations.

Fantastic informative video. Im only used to the old paper tachos years ago. I do have a digicard but my CPC ran out before I could use it, and ended up doing something a bit different for a while until I could decide what to do. Probably go back in the industry, I miss the bigger vehicles. Cheers for uploading this.

Fantastic mate thanks I'm just starting my hgv carrier Last week you made so straight forward and simple and I have confidence now thanks to you

[MartynStubbsTBS]

I have got to get my head round this but I admit it's driving me crazy but tomorrow I will have a go . Great video thanks.

[alexanderevans]

Thanks Kev, I'm a new pass that hasn't been shown by anyone how to use my Digitack properly!

[Average-man]

Great video. A must watch before you use a card for the first time.

[jamesturl]

Thanks for covering that.your videos are helping massively with going through the steps on getting my license. Keep up the good work!

[henryteardrop]

Hi Kev,
Nice straightforward video, thanks. Just a note: VOSA ceased to be in 2014. It has been DVSA since then. Regards

[learnmoretakaedza]

Thank yu very much, it's been a nightmare but this explanation is fantastic

[Joe-udhb]

Tks for clear detailed video, my first time using this VDO tacho & the "driving without card" screen threw me.

[zdopdne]

New class 1 driver ...done class 2 previously but wasn't confident on taco manual entries, slit of people aren't! Helpful video though 👌
