I agree. I once picked up an empty at one of our stores and the release handle for the tandem slider was pulled out and the pins not engaged, the safety guy wasn't around there so when i got back i asked him if he did it and he said he would not do anything as drastic.
I don't know if he asked the previous driver if he moved the tandems and forgot to engage the pins or maybe left it like that so the next driver could slide them back a little as they were shoved all the way forward so is still a mystery to me.

chewey3 Thanks this.

I understand some store have pits set up where axles need to be slid to make dock height, but cannot otherwise understand why people think they need to slide axles as much as it happens.
For a while our DART dedicated out of the twin cities was terrible about sliding them all the way forward no matter what. And cranking the landing gear 9 feet off the ground.
How half of them made it past the St Croix scale I have no idea. -

TransplantBadger and MilkyJay Thank this.

And since its an outside lot. They aren't too keen on inspecting in inclement weather. Just like the MN side. -
St Croix is the Minnesota side. It works 5-6 days a week. The EB scale in Wisconsin is in Roberts, WI.
That’s why I said that. Because sliding the axles forward throws the weights off significantly. -
