    M35 A2 Tankers

    Our Union training center has an M35 fuel tanker that is still in use. The tank is now run off a small horsepower pony motor instead of running off the pto. A lot of the apprentices are afraid to drive it, so they bring the equipment to the tanker instead of vise versa. Hopefully when the...

    Offloading Tracked Vehicles

    We just loaded up a 138 Link Belt using a removable gooseneck trailer yesterday. Even under ideal conditions you still have to be careful, have the proper cribbing and rubber softeners or old mud flaps to lay down on the trailer so the tracks have grip on the metal trailer. Slow deliberate...
