Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

I see you put the knots on the scalemaster side. Maybe he will come out and show you a better way to secure it. Such as using a chain to extend the strap. Tying two straps together with a knot is something a farmer would do. The dot guy in our area would write you an invitation and put you out of service until it was fixed.

 

But it's a square knot!

 

sorry new to flatbed, pile driving equipment?

 

1) I don't carry chain, I don't like them. To me I prefer using straps.

2) tying two straps in a knot ? I didn't do that I just tied up the lose strap up so it wouldn't drag. What do you guys do with the extra strap ? Again asking cause I am new to this.

3) It was dark, I should be called back to move this load Saturday morning. I will take better pictures if they call me to move it. It's a giant motor and a hydraulic hammer. The hammer is tall narrow and heavy and, was in a difficult area to get to so I didn't feel comfortable moving it with only two straps in fear of it going over. I just used what I had and went really slow. I wasn't moving it far, if I was I would of had them sign me out and call a truck with the right equipment.

 

Straps on a 20,000 pound top heavy pile hammer? Awesome.

Cnsper, Good catch on the knots, especially that they are on the scalehouse side!
But I think he just tied up the end piece so it wouldn't be flying in the wind. I don't think he really tied the straps together.

 

Always picking on the farmer.....

 

If the darn farmer would keep his slow tractor off the highway we wouldn't pick on him so much lol
