Best lowboy instructional video on KZfaq. Thank you gentlemen.

Thanks SrA Hermann.

WTH! Wish that we had this type of lowbed when I was with uncle's sam Air Force! 🇺🇸💪

I've been seeing lowboys here and there all the time. No one has explained *how* they work. I figured the hydraulics have a purpose and that it "somehow" pushes/pulls the neck to/from the trailer lifting/lowering it, but this video actually explains something and now I finally figured it out. Thanks for the vid! Ps, why in US lowboys are so common? Does it have something to do with weight stuff or what, since I have never seen one in Europe (not to say there isn't any), but we have just regular flatbeds/lowboys of our own that equipment gets driven on through integrated ramps which are similar to the rise of lowboys. Asking since the ones we use don't need the tractor to move away at all, wouldn't it be faster?

He seems very happy, nice to see.

That guy spends more time putting his gloves on and off than he does operating the truck/trailer.

if you wish to save two step here how you can do it ! the tractor have air bag if yes lower the airbag before lowering the trailer after you do the usual steps to disconnect it is a the move forward one foot part that changes so basically put the air back in the airbag . there you save one step ... to reconnect you lower your airbags one foot before the trailer and do like you do normally

4:19 You don’t need to worry about being straight/square when you back into the trailer. It is self-guiding and thus foolproof.

Thanks!

Great video

I’ve never had to and seen anybody get in an out of the cab numerous times to disconnect or reconnect a lowboy trailer, and seeing that procedure on dropping the trailer, pulling forward a little then raising the neck before pulling further, I’ve never seen that before unless the frame of that tractor doesn’t have a skid to keep the neck from touching the ground.

The military show does things differently

Man the old 25 ton lowboys we had in the Army in the 70s and 80s was much easier to use.

thats a nice trailer

Between the seatbelt rule and glove rule and that cheesey international with the automatic it's a wonder anything gets done. The military really should look at private industry a little more and maybe incorporate some better techniques.

Great share! 2T1 here in NY. Just requested a B426 and B364 for our J-model conversion . Can you tell me what codes are for the 6x4 and this trailer you're using in the video, thanks!

What "make" trailer company?

When did the Air Force get RGN's? When I was in we had to barrow them from the Army.

What trucks is he driving? Company? Model?

What is up with all of the gloves on and off?

Practicing for your civilian career eh

First step, dump your airbags then the rest.

Gotta take care of the soft girl hands.

But us in the army are stuck with 983?! Let us have these 😂 actually let the Air Force retire these soon so I can buy one

all i can say is, MURRAY Trailer, or COZAD Trailer. anything else is a waist of time just like this video.

This is what my tax dollars go to?!~?!?! I'm calling Trump.

Take the gloves off put your gloves on. Take the gloves off. Put your gloves on. Take your gloves off. Why don't you leave your gloves on and get the job done.?? Do you even need gloves to touch the steering wheel and the control levers?

Too much prancing around for a military job professional!

I am really surprised to see a "Wing-Nut" ( Air force Person) wearing gloves. When ever did they get their hands dirty? I mean they are paid to get high.
