Inoperable Moffett Forklift Tow

[EdsTowing]

Got a call the other day from one of our customers delivering building supplies and their "Pig" failed in the middle of the street. They told us the rear wheel broke and they couldn't move it. We had one like this a year ago for the same customer and assumed it was the same condition. They are difficult to load when damaged so we informed them that we would bring a wrecker to lift & set it on a carrier for transport...

 

 

It ended up being the turning arm that snapped & not the actual wheel. This is still difficult to work with since you can't control the wheel direction and it free spins like a caster wheel.

 

 

Pulled the rollback in a driveway next to where it was disabled and had him back underneath it.

 

 

The unit was going back to the manufacturer service facility an hour away but near one of my good friends we work with. So instead of us traveling up & back, they went over & unloaded it for us.
