I was haulen new Cat skidsteers from the plant in N. C. and you had to do a 4 point tie down with 60 % hold back and one chain over the loader arms so a total of six chains and binder for a 7000 lbs skidsteer and that was from the fed dot as they were in there inspecting loads leaving the plant. Now if you haul the big stuff like i do everyday you sorta get to know all this as at some point you are going to be talking to them and here in the Buckeye we have a new policy of O tollarance on equipment hauling and oversize and i have the privlige of getting stoped at least once a week and getting screwed with for atleast a half and hour by the portables and the diesel bear.last time i told him that he was interupting my lunch break and i sat there munching a sandwitch and drinking a pepsi and when they were done he told me that i had better get some new chains as i had a couple that were as he put it rusty and he had a hard time finding the G70 stamp.So today we put 267 Dollars worthe of shinny new chain on the trailer the boss is not happy . Next week it will be something else oh and they did say that we need to clean the equipment better , i cleaned the tracks and dusted then off with a broom but it was not good enough for this bozo i asked him if he want me to wash and wax them before i hauled them .
