    A tip my trainer gave me was “always follow the pipes in your trailer.” It will help you a bunch understanding what they do and where they go.
    What about unloading don’t you feel comfortable with?

    All trailers work the same way. Find your discharge, recirculator, pressure builder, force feed, and your vent before you start. That way you’re not looking all over the place once you kick on your pump.

    More that I don't have all the steps memorized yet. Most I do but not fully yet

    Are you learning by steps or are they teaching you the why’s? Like, why are you turning this valve for, what’s it’s purpose.

    Just curious. Everyone learns differently. I personally preferred my trainer telling me why I am doing what I am doing.

    I sort of know the why. I just want to get to the point I know exactly what to do.

    This is why one should always learn to read the plumbing of a trailer. As long as you can do this doesn’t matter the trailer or if it’s tagged or not just like a tank.

    learning how to read the plumbing will help you tremendously with every trailer that you use. We only had 3 CO2 trailers in Portland and they were all different.

    Hello everybody. I ended up not taking the Genox West Transportation job. I figured the lack of no overtime pay and the longer commute wasn't going to be worth it.
     
    scythe08, lual, Cali kid and 1 other person Thank this.
