    I’m glad I get paid by the hour that’s for sure.

    Was sent to a jobsite to get these 2 gems and haul them 2 hours up the road. The fun started when the JLG stopped moving with one axle on the trailer and one on the ground. After a couple phone calls with the mechanic, dragging my tool bag out and sweating more then I thought possible I finally got it running and loaded. Got to the rental shop and it fired right up and unloaded like a new machine, go figure. 6F9B8C50-2F31-4265-BE00-EBF83D349A5E.jpeg

    Port Hueneme to salt lake again. Been doing this one almost every week. Got to the gates 5 minutes after closing, was denied entry. Spent the night in the parking lot. Oh well… 68D806BD-ED2C-44E2-B5DC-67D090D5474D.jpeg 89F4D00E-BA85-4B5B-9366-37ACDD6213FC.jpeg 89F4D00E-BA85-4B5B-9366-37ACDD6213FC.jpeg

    I am curious as to what your judgment call is of the direction the load is facing, I assume it's for proper weight displacement?

    That haul truck won’t fit the other way.

    Ya, you saying that, I see it now, the step vs front end height.

    If at all possible only raise the jib on those, if you raise the boom it has sensors that can stop the machine. Jib doesn't have sensors. They can be a pain sometimes.
