I'd love to drive one of these (in semi truck training now)! Which licensing do you need to drive and are haul truck drivers very in demand? It's like driving a house! 😂
Man I just put in an application at the Quarry up the road from me for this exact position. I pray I get it, this reminds me of my Tonka truck as a kid lol
As as a breakdown fitter electrician, Love the Elink , VIMS screen and temps , Data etc.. , especially brake temp issues , due to wiring and ‘ green death ‘ sulphated connectors , here in Australia, the salt content is high , especially in Western Australia, there’s so much with ‘temp sensors , diff pressure and temp , because of water ingress , the water connectors can due so much , and having the VIMs a great Diagnosic tool when you don’t have the ET , SIS near by , test driving the CAT is cool , super cool as I’m VOC ‘ed on it and love the power when they get going , sooo Uber lucky to blessed working on these CAT products and in the Mining game !
I've seen people use the retarder all the time, but the service brake (brake next to accelerator) is never to be used at high speeds but best used when entering the area you're being loaded. That way you have your right hand ready at the shifter...
I operate one from mon-fri 6am-4pm then sat 6am-12. Where I work we have 3 770g trucks. Which we get loaded by a 992 loader. 2-2.5 scoops and we're fully loaded. There only 40 tonners. We can fit 50 though. Lol. Soon we are getting rid of them and getting 100 ton trucks bc our quarry is getting a brand new plant for crushing stone etc.. it'll be another couple years before it's finished though. But yeah I love driving them. Literally my first day of work. I watched a few safety videos, then got put right into a truck. Only 3 days of driving with somebody then after that I was on my own.
Do you have the Ai camera for construction truck blind zone detection and warning system?, just share reference url as below....ru-vid.com/show-UC28-GjPSIvHHiJT2SKYx6Ygvideos
Everybody goes into a big song-and-dance over driving dumpies and it's mostly all BS. The truth of the matter is you could get a well trained chimpanzee to drive one, which is probably why there are so many women in dumpies these days! Put 'em in an old R model Flintstone with a twin stick quad box and then we'll find out who the real truck drivers are!
