You’re right there I would have to refuse, that would be off-putting and a distraction, you just know it’s going on YT and he never had 3 points of contact and made a point of showing it. Not good… we’re in a public space ANYONE can film us.
Well, 2 other things I saw in that video too. He was moving around WHILST operating the crane (this is not permitted) If you have to reposition yourself you must FIRST press the emergency stop RED Button. This nowadays is a failure in the test. Lastly, putting the load between a bush and an electric cable. What crane operators would do to please a customer.

@@briandoyle8003 Sure, but that is the difference between Cowboys and real hiab operators.

@@truckeralvarez5932 been driving hgv and using a crane for 10 years and I also have drove for Jewsons,Jewsons and they expect approx 3 runs a day with between 5 to 8 drops and if you can't keep up you won't be going back (simple as) now I'm not sure what praise you have been receiving but I suspect you're one of these old drivers who think they know it all anf drag their feet at jobs,Also I've in the past done driving assessments for a medium size building merchants and we tend to not hire drivers who,let's say who fk around when doing deliveries hence why we have 6 month probation periods, now I'm sure health and safety will agree with you but the truth is not all jobs are as simple as basic training,Delivering under telephone lines are normal and I wouldn't refuse a delivery if it can be done because we will just have to go back out again
@@peterbeszteri4266 …….. yes I understand about the bag and that it can/allowed to lift it in that way. I guess all I’m saying is ‘wouldn’t it be safer to use the actual bag handles’ ?
Bit late for a response but as a hgv driver who uses a crane exactly like this I can confirm that technically you do not need a specific license! All you need is appropriate training
@@Deenus-eg7yu our trainer told us that wearing gloves while using the crane was a no,no. I’ve now circulation issues in my hands on a cold morning.....gloves are needed!
cymaz100 I’ve done the job almost 10 years, gloves are a must in my opinion! Most trainers I’ve come across only know how to do the job on a quiet site lifting things you’d never actually bother to move
Tidy job 👍
I wouldn't move anything with the crane if the customer was recording me

Why? Do you have a problem with your performance on the crane that you have to do it without anybody watching you?
@@mmamodfatheruk3094 I think, that is a bit of insecurity, if someone is not sure that he is doing it right, then ask for extra training.
Live Free sent me along. Great video, look forwards to watching more.
Awesome - thank you so much :)
he will be sacked for jumpin from his cab, jewson laws

@@truckeralvarez5932 could of been a telephone wire ? but agree with the rest also no strap on the bag and non one the slabs ( insecure load )

I think this was uploaded with good intention but you could've got the dude in trouble for this.
Too close to the overhead power cable..🙈
Correct
Why wasn’t the bag lifted using the 4 lifting hooks on the bag………. Is it because the driver isn’t allowed on the bed of the lorry ?
You can nip the bags
@@alexgovan7758 …… yes I understand what the crane can do, but is it not safer to use the actual handles of the bag
@@radiogramgramophonetoons5802this isn’t about the crane. Bag’s tag says clearly you can nip it.
@@peterbeszteri4266 …….. yes I understand about the bag and that it can/allowed to lift it in that way. I guess all I’m saying is ‘wouldn’t it be safer to use the actual bag handles’ ?
where was the 3 points of contact ? the so called BOSS is a goner
what cat lience do i need for this kinda job hgv class 2 crane ?
Class 2, Lorry mounted crane, brick grab
Bit late for a response but as a hgv driver who uses a crane exactly like this I can confirm that technically you do not need a specific license! All you need is appropriate training
@@ExeterRipper you need a crane with brick grab license either almi or itsar training and HGV class 2 for the truck
From a Jewson driver 👍🏻
@@leeberry1363 yes class 2 is needed but crane isn’t. I have been operating hiab for 2 years without a specific license
This guy been stitched up. Does almost everything wrong whilst on camera
Who gives you the right to record and publish his face without his consent??
It’s in public
Twice walking under crane, walking about when operating crane, wearing gloves when operating crane...I’ll stop now
What’s wrong with wearing gloves??
@@Deenus-eg7yu our trainer told us that wearing gloves while using the crane was a no,no. I’ve now circulation issues in my hands on a cold morning.....gloves are needed!
