Machines | Transfer-Dump Race: The Complete Run
videos | at work | information | view | construction
Mark Tarascou and his Pete 359 is seen participating in a transfer-dump competiton at the 2011 Truckin' For Kids Truck Show. Although there were a few glitches, it was still a good show. For those not familiar with dump trucks like these, they are set up with a system that allows the driver to back the truck up while they are standing behind it to make attaching the towbar easier. The driver puts the truck in reverse gear and shuts the engine off. At the rear is a switch or a button that is used to engage the starter motor on the engine without starting the truck. Since the transmission is in reverse, as the starter motor turns the engine it also turns the driveline and backs the truck up. I'm not a trucker so I don't know what this system or technique is called, but that is how it works. Thanks for watching. Please rate and share this video with your friends. Shot on 9-25-11.

Kinda horrible to watch. It´s hard to believe that transfer is an american invention.

I'd say the pump for the hydraulics was worn out way slow...and his hooks were wore out sticking like that when he went to move the trailer box onto the truck

It's an old pete, in the US there is new, faster ways to getting it done
-
he had a good run going there for a minute....

Love my dump trucks, I wonder why didn't they use the tri axle tho?
-
Funny at 4:17 if I did not first read that these trucks "...are set up with a system that allows the driver to back the truck up..."
-
This was really cool honestly. I myself have never seen any kind of vehicle be able to reverse like that. I can understand just fine on how it works, just haven't ever seen it before lol. Awesome :D

This is every dump trucks nightmare...
Having to work in one of theses... -
Transfer trucks/trailers are the worst idea they ever came up with...
I know it was state regulation s that spawned this horrible idea. -
Dude was slow, and rough on everything. Made far too many errors, particularly when walking the can back on the trailer.
My best time transferring is 3 minutes. I could do that consistently.
Back the unit around corners, right, or left. One shot on a good day.
The transfers I've driven had a "transfer" hitch, not a pintle hitch.
Makes an easier, faster drop, and hitch operations.
I also had my air lines, charge, and electric cables, set in such a way unhooking, and rehooking these, and the safety cable was smooth, and fast.
There was no way to run over the lines as they laid down in the drawbar. I could dump the truck box while still hooked up to the trailer.
That's fast transferring.
pull up, jackknife, dump over the drawbar, pull forward, drop trailer, pull up, back to the pile, dump, pull up, back to trailer, walk box, pull up, (closer to the drawbar than this guy) hook up, bye, bye.
Under 3 min.
A Reliance transfer is faster, and has air flaps, that raise to keep from backing over your own flaps while dumping.
Truck, and trailer is my favorite of all combinations. I don't pull doubles. Ever.
Did transfer, and semi-end dump half the years I've driven.
Truck, and trailer isn't harder to back than a semi.
It looks a lot cooler though.. -

excuse my ignorance, what system is used to back up the truck from outside in the back, what is it called?
-
nice.....
-
Such equipment abuse. If you treat you rig like that good luck making any money.
-
04:18 that's quite an interesting feature :) but you can see how easily something could go wrong (in a rush) lol
-
that is the old setup!! but if you know what you're doing you can be faster than the guys with a brand new tubs and superiors boxes.. he could have saved a few seconds by lifting the box up to transfer it out it's all about gravity. "roll it out FAST" lock it down.
