Superb video again, and so clear Paul - thank you! Would love to attend one of your courses. I drive for the Fire Service (part-time) and got my Class 2 in 2013. I have just taken my 5 x periodic CPC modules to get my DQC and find some Class 2 commercial work. I would like to look into doing HIAB, ADR and once I have driven Class 2 commercially for a little while, take my Class 1. I hear that the government are bringing in Skills Bootcamps, including Class 1 that are free from approved providers from Nov / Dec 2021 to address the shortages - I don't' suppose you will be offering these would you?

@bkrjayce 3 года назад

Hello, thanks for making a informative and no nonsense video. I do have one question related to the use of the chain in the video, you state using a ratchet strap you can identify its load capacity and test date by label, does a similar system exist for the use of chains to secure loads? Thanks in advance.

@NationalDrivingCentre 3 года назад

Yes, correct it should do. However if not or in any doubt, check with your line manager / depot.

@LookOutForNumberOne Год назад

Actually, it was nonsense. Unsecured load.

@kayaksnorkeluk8272 Год назад

Just seen a video which shows you attach the chain hooks to the securing points on the trailer then take up the slack with the tensioner rather than tensioning the two ends together.

@NationalDrivingCentre Год назад

Yes, Obviously if you was securing a vehicle then you would need to use change on the shackle pins in a criss-cross formation at the front and rear of the vehicle. And then using the ratchet to close attention as shown. 👍👍

@LookOutForNumberOne Год назад

Precisely, that is what he did wrong. He is showing an unrealistic securing of a load. You would hardly ever loop a chain and secure it from the bottom, that is just nuts!!! Hence, for me, that is a FAIL.

Thanks for this video. When you say to inspect the chains and straps, should you physically check all of it in front of the instructor during CPC Module 4 or simply say that you should check it? Many thanks

Always be prepared to physically check, but some / most examiners will accept you understanding you would have to and won't require it.

Hi I find your videos very helpful, I'm doind my cpc module 4 in couple of weeks, at the moment we don't need to know the dolly knot?.. Can we just choose de straps instead?

@NationalDrivingCentre 3 года назад

Thank you so much for your comments and questions. The reason we don't need to know Dolly knot anymore is companies are not allowed to use rope to secure a load, the reason being is the rope is not load tested, it has not been inspected and has no date of birth. For this reason a ratchet strap or chains it's going to be the best method to secure a load. 👍👍

@Kuba1974 Месяц назад

Question, can I apply one end of the chain ratchet to the chain and the other end directly to the lashing point?

@NationalDrivingCentre Месяц назад

In a way, yes because you have a shortening link within the chain, it would be challenging and the chain would be a little bit too long. The hooks themselves are more designed to carry out a choke hold around a component. Consult your company is safe systems of work with regards to securing there are loads. 👍👍👍

@randompotatoguy9347 11 месяцев назад

how do you secure sheets on tipper trucks? do you use ratchet straps too or ropes?

@NationalDrivingCentre 11 месяцев назад

So sorry when you say sheets, what do you mean? This would most likely be ratchet strap as part of all companies safe systems of work there should be no rope used anymore because no six monthly checks are carried out (due to a lack of identification number), we don't know the age of the rope or what condition it's potentially in. 👍 therefore, rope is not a safe, securing method.

@randompotatoguy9347 11 месяцев назад

@@NationalDrivingCentre I think tipper drivers use sheets or something to cover their loads, sand, gravel etc. But how do they secure whatever they use to cover the loads?

Can I drive to my cpc mod 4 I have passed relevant tests but it will be during work time ?

@NationalDrivingCentre 2 года назад

No. There is an exemption for a student under driving lessons, because you are not in a training vehicle or undertaking driving instruction there is no exemption for yourself.

@jakcarn4184 3 года назад

Why do some people loop it twice meaning when putting the strap in the groove they feed it through again is it necessary? Thanks

@NationalDrivingCentre 3 года назад

A great question. This could be just a personal habit; this becomes a pain when trying to remove the straps quickly. It will not increase strength or durability.

@lulupinkus5627 3 года назад

Because that's how the ratchet and strap is designed to be used, so that you can take up most of the slack in the strap before ratcheting. This guy is doing it the lazy way, not the right way.

@NationalDrivingCentre 5 месяцев назад

No, this is not normal. The teaching and instructing needs to be at a professional level. And the standard across the UK needs to be the same so yes, they pretty much dropped the ball here. Sorry to hear about that, and I'm so glad the videos helped best of luck for the future. 👍👍🤞🤞

Interesting I’ve just passed my rigid and I was shown the dolly knot. I said not many people use rope anymore, The training provider explained its best to know a dolly knot because it’s a “dying art” and you’d have better chance of employment over other candidates. I’ve never seen a load secured with rope so I just didn’t want to learn it. Especially on a flat bed it’s mainly ratchet straps.

@NationalDrivingCentre 2 года назад

Very true Adam if VOSA/DVSA or Traffic police see you securing a load with rope you will be in trouble and potentially fined. Thank God it's a dying art because it should not be used anymore, the only people who need to know how to do a story not should be people with boats. Thank you so much for your comment Adam.👍👍👍

@fmalexander5555 5 месяцев назад

That chain tying doesn't look right . . .

@NationalDrivingCentre 5 месяцев назад

Possibly not, but that's because were using a test rig and not an actual load. Obviously if the load was present on the vehicle, we could then demonstrate the correct technique, but that is not part of the test. This is just to demonstrate the actual product. For example, the ratchet mechanism or the chain ratchet mechanism. But thank you so much for your comment. 👍
