Where dis castle place located? I heard something about him bein NY landscape contractor. Is it in NY?

Yes he’s in upstate NY.

 

[stuckmotor]

That wasn稚 even his fault. The crane stalled out on a hill loosing steering and brakes in the process.

I never understood why there wasn't a park brake or some type of emergency brake for that very situation.

 

[BackRoad]

I believe he's in the Catskills Mr. (removed)...Saugerties area.

A bit far from the Can of Worms!

 

[Wakey]

He has a new video this morning where he deals with a pallet in a field.

He’s jerking our chain. Lol

He lives in the mountains of NY (Catskills I would think) near the Hudson River between NYC and Albany near Saugertes.

I wasn't suggesting he was to blame. But, he did the right thing by jumping off and avoiding possible injury.

If it didn’t have some sort of emergency brake to stop the machine when the engine stalled, it’s likely because he bypassed the safeties. In that event, it wasn’t an accident, it was stupidly.

That’s the kind of guy he is.

You’re making a bold assumption that it worked on a 50 year old crane. I’m pretty sure it happened on the first trip to his house when he bought it.

The tip over video is dated 11-27-20

Andrew has a video with a notation saying, "My first time operating my new Pettibone 25 crane" dated 11-14-16. My link won't work the vido is titled "Lifting SUV With A Crane"

I can't guarantee it's the same crane but the crane is yellow in both videos.


Like everyone, Andrew makes his decisions and takes his chances. Some work out great, some don't. I just hope nobody gets hurt. What ever the case, he knows more about heavy equipment than I ever will and I intend to keep watching.

Maybe you missed the picture just above that with the new-to-him TL10 and TL12 Takeuchi skid steers.

 

[old and tired]

Did you see the question in that Takeuchi thread where "...So what’s the point of having so many?..."

andrew_c_am "...I like them..."

Classic Andrew answer. :laughing:

I saved that shot along with this one!

I’ll stand by my statement. Petibone, or any other legitimate company hasn’t made a wheeled vehicle without an emergency brake in the last fifty years.

Furthermore, only a person lacking judgement would operate one without an emergency brake, especially in the terrain he was in.

If you want, I can stop by the Petibone factory in a couple of months. It’s thirty miles down the road.

That crane probably was 50 years old. And the emergency brakes probably didn’t work good even when they were new.
