"look at all this stuff"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Hetzer_pr]

He could pick it up, he just didnt want to, I have done it with a 50 ton rotator

[gusfc]

Wow I'm surprised at 75 ton rotator couldn't pick up that 30 ton machine

[PhilWolfe-tptv]

All I can say just be happy with a smile on. That's the way I do when I have no control over the big picture. I have a better day when I do that. I catch you on the next one.

[DarrenStewart-xz]

As much as I hate driving overnight I couldn’t deal with that traffic.

[pupweiller]

That wrecker driver was either lazy, dumb or both, that machine complete is about 80k lbs & with the arm & bucket off prolly 70k lbs & that 75 ton rotator could easily pick up & set that 40 ton Cat on your trailer.

Whenever I don't have a proper address, I find it on Google maps, and then look around until I make sense of it.

Good morning Brother well empty is empty but if it still pays that’s even better, keep the hammer down 👊🇺🇸🇺🇸

At least the guys at that base can tell you where to go, in Vegas, Nellie Airforce Base can never tell you, everytime I’ve been there, and needed help to how to get to a particular spot, they say “I don’t know”

[huggy]

I Chris awesome video also Bruce Willson sold the rotator for smaller wreckers I guess things changed on the path where they want to go

The common sense train has ran dangerously low on common sense and is in danger of deraling
We live near March Air Reserve Base
When I drove a tow truck everytime I went on that base it was a hassle
One time I told the MP at the gate
That's a mighty big gun your carrying
He looked at me and said
It's a mighty big base
Also speaking of towing
Your rotator driver needs to go to rigging school for rotators
He gave up way to easy
From a tow operator point of view I see a company that wants to charge for two rotaters instead of one
I'm not there so IDK
But from experience it sure appears that way

[DannyDank]

I'm not gonna lie that wrecker driver didn't really give it much of a go. I'm not convinced he had his winch brake set (it seemed to roll far too easily and the brakes didn't squeal at all) and you commented about whether he was gonna use the underlift to stabalise it - he does have a giant rear outrigger he could have put down with spades that dig into the ground he could have flipped down.

Tbf a quick google says that machine could weigh up to 40 tons (although without half the boom and bucket it'll be a bit lighter) so it would definately be a heavy lift for the reach required to place it on your trailer. A lot of people seem to forget that 75 ton is the rating with the boom fully retracted and raised as high as it can go so it's the shortest distance from the centre of the trucks mass and the limit starts decreasing the moment you extend the boom even slightly further then that but I'm very suprised he didn't even give it a go. He could have pulled along side it, given it a test lift and had you back up under it if it were possible but he didn't even try.

Sucks you left empty but that sometimes goes with it. The shape that thing is in should be stripped and headed to the scrap yard. Hopefully the next load is more fruitful.

[robertallred]

The Air Force doesn't allow you to take pictures of the flight line. I hope you don't get in trouble.

[Middleman]

Damn shoot and a miss. They need to have someone pull the gear out of the drive. With the gear out the rotator can drag with no problem. If they don’t then you’ll go through all that trouble to unload it but then you run the risk of it being trapped on your trailer. I’ve had my run-ins with moving broken-down equipment and tracked equipment is the worst. They might need a winch truck to move it.

[rileygarrett]

What kind of work did you to at Quantico concrete

[shawnjarman]

So, a 75ton rotator, that can sit right next to the machine, can’t pick a 30 ton machine up? Why do in not believe that, but if you’re still getting paid, I wouldn’t feel to bad, I’ve been on jobs, where I’ve sat for hours, doing nothing, but looking at YouTube, getting paid, makes for a better profit day

[Qtip]

Not to be rude but does no one have a clue ……it’s not going to roll you have to pull the final drives…
