    I guess I am missing something because this looks totally unnecessary. I am sure I could get that off no problem without a rotator. Great job of being nice Alex.

      Oldskool phone wires can absolutely bite you still if the insulation is damaged. 48vDC on hook, 15vDC off hook. Those won’t hurt you but will make sparks and are not kind to the telco’s gear, as high as 120vAC ringing which’ll get you as good as anything.
      Best to just assume it’s all spicy unless your job is up the pole. That way there’s no risk of misidentifying.

    Great job Alex but surely not one done with best safely without the backup of a Traffic Management truck or Police / State Troopers to slow the drivers down, especially with the boom over the opposite side of the road. If I was a driver being signalled to drive under a suspended load I’m not sure I would have complied. Anyway, all’s well that ends well. Excellent to extend the video to show the strip down.

    @Underscore11 3 місяці тому +2

    I must say, while the rotator work was textbook, I would not have allowed or encouraged vehicles to drive underneath the suspended load - especially given you only needed to have it obstruct the road for maybe 2 minutes. While I'm obviously all for keeping traffic moving whenever possible, folks can understand needing to wait for a couple minutes if there's an obvious obstruction.

  • @stellarproductions8888
    @stellarproductions8888 4 місяці тому

    Telehandler oh telehandler, oh where art thou, on the back of a flatbed trailer, like a big effing cow. You'd think they would use a wider trailer to load that thing on? Alex did a great job on this one, especially since he was dealing with traffic both ways. But that motorbiker towards the end there, he's got a deathwish, driving that fast. They never learn until they drop the bike, and end up in hospital, in traction. Alex gets 5-gold 🌟 for a job well done.

    Much quicker for the customer if the truck driver had parked so he could pull out forward, out from under the telehandler when Alex lifted it enough to clear the trailer. Saved some time, which I suspect the customer was charged for in the end.
