@Aloha Akahai a cherry picker has a box this is an order picker.

We just witnessed the mating dance of a reach truck and a cb

The birds and the bees

It's an stuck (cherry) picker...

😂😂😂😂

I saw two get delivered to my workplace. The truck they were delivered on had a crane on the back. Dropped it off on its side in a regular loading door, then backed into the warehouse through the big boy door

At mine the extended mast ones came in without the masts installed as they were too tall for any external door. They used a bigger forklift and installed it inside.

So order pickers are only any good if you already own two forklifts! The guy that didnt have two forlifts found that out the hard way when his low box arrived!

Boxhawk: That lift has a 10 to 12 foot lowered mast. It won't go in to the back of a semi trailer standing up. (Or a standard dock door). All manufacturers have to lay lifts that size down for transportation.

myfoneuploads Pretty sure he was joking lol

flatbed?

how else were they going to transport it? it's way too tall to leave it standing up.

for reachtrucks they remove the mast prior to transportation and re install it inside the store - i have no idea is this is possible to order pickers

The one I drive is 5 tons, and sized to fit in smaller 12-pallet capacity box trucks...neatly; be less of a tight fit if the safety strobe was underslung rather than top-mounted like a top hat...but, meh.

Yup. People don't realize these are much heavier than a car. This machine pictured will double its weight again once the battery is in.

@@terryhoyt2058 Let's just say you don't want one of those things running over your foot. Or your Tesla.

Yeah, the OP i drive is 8 tons, you wouldnt think it would be the slightest bit heavier than a car, until someone crashes it into an isle and it bends a whole section of solid metal in simply going like 4 to 5mph

Gotta be a good bit heavier than the stuff it's lifting, after all.@@FosterC144

Agreed coming from another OP lol

WhatEVER!🤷🏿

There is nothing anymore or less safe doing it either way. Ive done thousands of them over the last 20 year both ways and it really just comes down to making sure the rigging you use won't come apart mid lift and that you go slow. Either way its still nerve wrecking to lift a new unit in front of the inevitable audience that gathers around

@@sonnieandjacob I was nearby when the rigging Fell apart on one being lifted. Thankfully It was almost to the ground, and there was no Damage done to it, It just made a bit louder Thud

I don't think they do and they expect companies to know how to do it.

How

Try lifting a Raymond turret truck

@@miklomorales4768 we use a 6000lb counterbalance. Lift straight up and ride the brakes as it starts to pull you forward. Once it’s upright, cut the banding and use the mast of the counter balance to lay down the cradle.

@@kevindillard5436 makes sense lol

an order picker*

And I am service technician in Belgium, about 30 years now, from Toyota BT and this is NOT the correct way. The got lucky that the wooden blocks beside the mast don't slips away when they tilting the machine over his dead point. Normally the forklift, an the right side, always have contact with the order picker and even lift the machine of the surface ... hanging freely of ground when they tip over. And the forklift on the left must always have the straps under tension, never get them loose and that is why the machine suddenly and unsuspected tilting over leaning on the wooden blocs ... :( They both make a mistake This was ... terrifying and nearby ... As my dear collega, Raymond technician, Jorge Garcia already told. This could have been gone wrong, they just got lucky

Thing is they probably were never told how to stand them up or how to do it so they just did what told get it up so did whatever idea they could come up with. They were probably never given instructions from the makers how and their boss since never were told how came up with this idea.

Toyota tech with 30 years under my belt. Spent the last 3 weeks standing up OME's and this is not the way to do it. No back up if anything goes sideways. Putting your trust in some crusty knotted slings and a few bits of timber.

Who cares jackass

Right? If it works, and nothing happened. Perfectly fine. If something were to happen, oh well, fix it or order another. OSHA cant be an excuse for everything, especially getting out or work or costing someone more money..

@@myfoneuploads You have to be the dumbest person in his comment section it's hilarious

With a material hoist or crane that's designed for these types of tasks.

Look again

If he had done that, the OP would have just slammed into the ground and damaged itself and the floor, no?

@@nmotschidontwannagivemyrea8932 I wasn't clear enough, sorry. I mean the straps on the left forklift should've been much shorter, so the forklift could keep his forks much closer to the attachment points on the OP. Of course he would always need to keep the straps in tension. I guess they had to avoid the OP's operator roof with the forklift's forks, but I don't know why they opted to go higher rather than lower. Maybe they just didn't have the right length of straps available.

@@MrSaemichlaus Fair enough. Considering that they didn't have a proper material hoist for this job, it's possible they didn't have the correct length of strap, either.

3D3LTA how did u get it out? From the top??

Said open top so most likely rest of top comes down so can drive it off or use other lift to pull it off.@@ChvdOB

Not every place has doors/gates high enough for the machines to get into the building.

Just don’t drive under a bridge

Correct. That short free falling moment is exactly what we try to avoid.

Sunil chougule

yup, same here..work for a raymond dealer. this is a great way to drop the truck if the cradle fails.

What a bunch of tight but virgins get a life

Shit happens, man. Be cool.

That's all well and good until the wood snaps. And where on the wood would they even be able to chain it to?

That's a ridiculous statement. Would you prefer they rush the job and let the machine slip and slam into the ground? (Of course, this isn't the correct way to stand up a machine like that in the first place, but that's besides the point.)

They brought our stockpickers in like this, but the turrets came in pieces and then put together.
