- Crown RC 5500 is a beast of a stand up lift , My first day of working . Shippin Tv , Washers to Best Buy stores all over florida and even Puerto Rico . Definitly a good work experience . 2/3/12
I am starting there, In Davenport tomorrow, i was glad to find this video, am nervous because i haven't driven one of these before. at least now i have a little operational info. thanks for the upload, wish me luck...lol
Well you posted this six years ago and I’m kinda interested and how it went 😂
@@kingviper_yt8108 facts 🤣
He probably crashed and got fired
@@tonyvargas2095 😂
I just got trained on one of these two days ago. I find it easy enough to operate just find the steering hard to get used to. We only use the clamp to unload heavy objects from trailers. Most of our stuff is small enough to be floor unloaded or it comes on pallets and we use these to move the pallets around. Its a nice pallet truck gets the job done. I make just over $17 an hour to drive these at work.
How do you adjust the speed settings on these? I'm trained as well but I still don't know how to adjust the speed settings.
Wow im getting ripped off i just got trained on one working with qvc and only make 14.20 and also operate the crown pe 4400 which is a lot more dangerous no cage. And also forklift bersion of this.
+Kushaholic420 which QVC? I work at the QVC in Suffolk VA I'm a expert on this the PE the SPs and TSPs
I work at suffolk qvc in picking and receving
Your vid's better then most of the other forklift ones out there, hardly any show how to manipulate the controls, they all just give variations of the safety tips.. Or if they do show driving, it's almost always too far away to see what they're doing, you did a great job filiming!
fuck yeah! I love those rc's with the squeeze attachments. Makes unloading refrigerators easy at lowes
I hate clamps I used them on a sitdown fork lift at Penske for whirlpool washers and it was such a pain
I drive this exact same model all night at my job 3rd shift at a wholesale club. The only difference is we have standard sized forks with side shift attachment. I have done this job for 2 years and have driven this lift which is the RC5500 and the older Crown model, the RC3000 series.
I must say there is no comparison between the two. Pallet allignment on the ground level is crucial and floor level pallets need to be extra tidy and strait for shoppers. The older lifts offer no visibility compared to the RC5500. I find the delay in the tilt a non-issue as I simply use the tilt function a split second earlier.
I can turn in and out of pallet slots forwards and backwards with ease and the sensitive throttle controls allow split second correction with finess.
The most important advantages for this lift are the supsension when driving over dock plates and the ability to tilt and lift forks at the same time. I can time the mass perfectly so that the forks reach the right level just as I travel in to the pallet saving me precious seconds.
I love driving this lift!!!!
If you grab both double stacked boxes at once, it's smarter to slightly grab the top box with the bottom.
So you can guarantee a safe grip and not have a slip of product. Meaning raise your clamp a little my guy.🤷🏾♂️
I operate one at my job. 11 yrs forklift experience.
i drive an rc5500 as well, except we don't put clamps on them because they can't lift much weight. we put clamps on our FC sit down forklifts. we have slip sheets and a rotating clamp as well we use.
Something tells me that they didn't know you were filming in there lol. The pressure lights were a nice feature for the clamp
Did he make sure the trailer he was unloading wheels were chalked?! LoL nothing beats warehouse life ;-)
If the docks have dock locks installed that hook the trailers ICC bar he wouldn't have to check if the wheels are chocked or not.
Its chocked
Awww. Cute! A baby reach truck!
Did you tell your supervisor that you ran into the pole? Lol. You are like the only vid I found of people enjoying their job.
First time and like 20+ years of ever being on a Hilo. When I was in training, I accidentally hit another Hilo. I even told my boss, I might have a hard time getting out because it was Adjacently in my way. But I got licensed in two days. :)
Red is for sith lords only ;)
You look like you are having too much fun doing that!
How much do operators typically start out as @ Best Buy?
holy crap you could broken your arm there,your lucky!
i drive those everyday at work and i dont get paid anything fancy -_-
How much?
I get almost $18 and thats not enough.
@@CHUCKIEBANDZ depends on where you live & wya... it's easy money to me🤷🏾♂️
@@tinyxl1682 easiest money ever made im at $19.50 now
to those askin about pay...60k last year..on a crown workin my ass off .
where?
I'm a forklift operator licensed in TSP, RC's, PE, and SP. I barely make 10 an hour it sucks!!
What about PC Walkie's? The center control electric pallet jacks.
I've trained so many people on crown's rc5500 and rm6000 trucks. Im the best in the 🌎
Raynors are so much easier I'm a beast on those trucks
CHUCKIE BANDZ aye bro you got a email or social media I wanted to ask about some tips on these things I know this comment old lol but supposed to start a job tomorrow on one these and this job would really mean a lot especially in times like these
hunterdude280 how did it go ?
@@hunterdude2806 So how did the job go bro?
One More Cast got the job just ended up using sit down going to train me on dock stocker and reach in a month or so
Suspension or not, driving over a dock plate 200+ times a night kills the knees. Not to mention the back rest punching your kidneys every now and then.
ayy greetings from Ontario DDC lol
frito lay pays around $21.00/hr to drive these
what state
good point...what state and starting at what
Are u serious??? Where
Where at? I live in Texas
We got a few of these newer 5500's over the past yr to replace our older Crown's and we always get error codes on them. Mostly from lowering/raising your forks while traveling. Causes the RC to shutdown with an error code. Super annoying. I avoid it and just use the older ones. These ones are also wider, making side-loading trailers are pain in the butt.
sounds like theres a problem with them, or you're putting too much pressure on the handle. if you press down really hard on the handle it will make an error message.
Had this problem with error code 743 on a brand new 5500...turns out is was just a minor adjustment needed in a potentiometer.. had Omnilift come out and they made the adjustment and my lift now runs error free and handles so much better than the 3000 ever did. It is roomier and more comfortable to operate. I do not feel like a giant trying to drive a mini clown car anymore. The delays in the lift, tilt, and side-shift are all easy to adjust to. I feel I can get more accomplished now than before. All out lifts are being replace with the newer 5500's. I have also noticed that battery life has been increased and/or more efficient. I can get nearly a full 8 hour shift out of a fully charged battery. Only thing that takes real getting used to is that we required a constant beeping while in motion which tends to be loud but tolerable.
Aj J. i never liked the 3000's and wish we would get rid of all of them that we have at my work. and it may be the batteries we use, but we can get about 2-3 days of work running the lift about 16 hrs a day out of 1 battery charge
daniel55645 lol....the 3000's we have are so bad on batteries...barely get 3 hours anymore....and its not lack of battery maintenance....the batteries are so old the cores are worn out and no longer hold a charge.
Looks like your some what near me Omnilift would be my local dealer. Working on buying my first forklift having never driven a forklift another forklift company brought me over a 2002 3000 to try out that he's trying to sell me for around $5k 7000hrs It seems to run OK then again I have nothing to compare it against. I've found a few 5500s on the net for not a lot more. I'm thinking it would be better to go with a newer lift even If i have to spend $10k
i worked at best buy in the 90's and they were filming a forklift safety video in the brand new appliance warehouse DAW #78, after they were done filming some aspect one of my co workers scotty drove in with the battery powered stand up crown forklift getting the last of some home appliances out of a 54' trailer, and the semi driver thought he was done because of the long break while the videographer stopped the unloading process to finish the shot of proper procedures for the past 15 minutes. i heard the truck start up as scotty drove into the trailer and told him to becareful as the driver might drive away, and we had no safety locks to keep the trailer locked to the dock door and no light system was installed yet to let the drivers know the trailer was being loaded/unloaded still, and scotty in a quick hurry had driven to the cab end of the trailer to grab the last set of appliances and was full throttle reverse trying to get out of the trailer before the driver could drive away, i was just unlocking the garage door on the drivers side to let the driver know not to drive away when the driver started to pull away, scotty was almost to the lip of the trailer at full speed and we told him to jump off the forklift and he barely made it to the concrete floor of the dock and a couple steps further inside the building, when that forklift went off the end of the trailer, and that forklift dropped immediately there was no hangtime what so ever it started going down as soon as the rear wheels made contact with the end of the trailer and the forklift went from vertical to dead horizontal in about 4/10ths of a second the forklift mast snapped off as the forks were the only thing making contact with the end of the trailer and back into the operators compartment in one quick almost blink of the eye motion right over the battery playing fulcrum and the entire forklift ended up on the concrete pad laying on it's back side perfectly. had scotty not jumped or been a split second later in his jump he would be dead and chopped in half from the mast shield that protects the operator from falling object from up high over their head and partially crushed by the forklifts mast and probably a leg under the machines body. the driver still had no clue and i had gotten the door thrown up and was hollaring stop as loud and quick as i could 3 times and putting both hands out in stop motions. meanwhile the camera guy and videographer were just staring in shock. they immediately got their camera running again before the dust had even settled and were detailing what had just been missed mere seconds before and filming the brand new forklift destroyed and the truck driver profusely apologizing to us from right beside his door step after he got his truck stopped and parked with the air brakes still hissing and scotty was just pale as a ghost his whole body shaking and i looked at him and said it's a good thing you barely hesitated when we told you to jump the first time other wise he'd have been dead, it was that close. this whole thing i wrote took place in the span of 17 seconds with the part from me just unlocking the door from there to the forklift on the ground taking 3 seconds. i can't even begin to describe everything that happened in those 3 seconds, it wasn't slow motion, just everything went that fast. the truck driver didn't pull away slow at all, infact he was probably 10mph in less than a second and a half. one of the fastest pull aways from a dock door i have ever seen. we had close calls at the main ware house before but we had safety lights, the temporary warehouse we were at had safety lights and trailer dock locks which i was one of the only 2 people to activate and there were a just under a dozen times it had prevented this exact scenario from happening previously 3 times when the trailer was unhooked and the wheels were on a couple inches of ice and the trailer tried to slide away again. i had started activating the locks after the first time a trailer slid away from the dock due to ice even with the tractor still coupled up. sometimes the guys forgot to check the locks after i turned them on and the tractors tried to pull away and couldn't, it never hurt anything when that happened and none of the drivers ever tried to pull away hard at the temp warehouse, while the videographer was still filming i looked right at my manager and i said that's why i said we shouldn't be using these docks until they get the safety locks installed loud enough for the camera to pick it up and told the videographer the directions to the temp ware house about 15 minutes up the road where he could film the safety lights and trailer dock locks i had just mentioned and i walked away. this whole thing was entirely my managers fault trying to save time and money by utilizing the new warehouse when only 3 of the dock plates had been installed out of the 25 and non of the safety equipment other than fire extinguishers were installed, there wasn't even a security system at the time which i had mentioned to loss prevention officers at other locations.
the manager was a pos anyways he got alot of delivery drivers broken backs because a computer program treated human beings like machines that didn't get fatigued muscles moving 2&1/2 times the normal appliance units per day because the program computed it could be done at that pace in an 8 hour day and detailed the route which had zero recovery time keeping delivery stops barely minutes apart. thanks to him a dozen drivers are on permanent disability for life and most of them were in their 20's. his name is mark white.
Didn’t need to type that much lol
the reach trucks are difficult to use, especially when you're lifting 20 feet up it takes a lot of concentration. I used to drive for Schwans and I would set down 200 pallets from 20 feet in my 4 hour shift. I make 15.50 which is really good for the area.
Im training on the RC and for me it's hard. Now the Walkie is simple but the RC...I don't know. Any pointers.
I drive the same truck at home depot.
I get paid $15.88 @ Winco to drive this crown forklift.
I laughed my ass off when you tried to stop the forklift with your hands when you smoked that pole. Been there, done that. Why do they use stand-ups for clamping though? I hate those things
do you know how to change the Service Speed? theirs a code, wondering if its the same....
This is a very very nice camera, HD i assumed?
this dude should have been fired by the end of his shift. 1st, no phones are allowed on the warehouse floor. 2nd, filming inside the warehouse like that is against company policy. 3rd, that crash alone would have gotten him fired.
PaydiPoo maybe drug tested but not fired.
Stfu you watched the video so stop trying to be twat about it
Hello!
Where is that Warehouse located?
How much do they pay?I heard you can make up to 30k or more doing this job?
Tonahuac Theonewhocarriesthelight you will make no more then 70k I can tell you that much
i hate the steering on that type of crown lifts, its to loose for me
Same.. Raynors are soo much easier and they actually have a laser light that guide you to tell where your mass is which makes retrieving loads simple
Where this warehouse at I would love to work there
dayy day if you in Texas, they got one in Houston. $16.00 an hour
why do you work two jobs?
I make 10.50 an hour to do this 10 hours a day. It's not that bad but standing in the same spot all day kind of sucks.
10.50? Wow I'd move away Target distribution pays $17.80 in Denton, Tx and Walmart Distribution pays $19.00/hr in Sanger, Texas
Seems lije a dangerous environment
What the fuck. .... How much do forklift drivers make
12:40 Epic Fail :v
I never get along with a Crown or Clown brand. Will never like it
I can do that easily
Im training on the RC and for me it's hard. Now the Walkie is simple but the RC...I don't know. Any pointers.
