BACK ORDERED Remote downstream controller (The Schertz Box)

That’s just a Lodar brand remote system. They are super expensive. He was covering up the lodar brand on the remote but I recognize it a mile away. I used lodars when I worked wind energy and steered towers and blades.

Here’s a picture of a tower we dropped and drug down an off ramp in Bloomington Illinois. The mast on the trailer that holds it up buckled.

That could have been a whole lot worse.

Yea I’ve seen them tear through medians and everything. Seen one destroy and overpass.

How was it loaded back up again? Would have been a pricey exercise.

Those trailers are self loading. We back the front half of the front trailer into the tube. Then the mast expands to brace itself into the top of the tower. Same with the back part of the trailer.

Essentially the tower section becomes the middle of the trailer.

So we just had another truck come and only bring the front half of the trailer. It was about a 3 hour process. The state police said we had 4 or they were calling crane trucks to load it and haul it off. We just laughed and said ok! Takes a 14 axle truck and trailer to move one.

I guess I never realized those things were that big!

Usually about 265,000 pounds running down the road.

I used to drive heavy haul but my heaviest load was only 167,000lbs. I would love to try 265k
