Try to do this with a hydrostatic drive !

[klovro007]

jel to negdje u hrvatskoj :D

I am not sure what the differences are, but how can you guys be arguing when the guy in the video is balancing a forklift(if thats what it is called). Not only is he balancing the thing, but how he got it in that position is crazy.

[watchtower183]

Skill.

[fendt9000]

bis die achsen schroot sind ;-) xDD oder der arm im arsch ist xD

[bfgtimis]

@fendt9000 Was für eine angenehme Bemerkung !! Das war natülich wâhrend einer Vorführung und man fährt dan Manitou nicht so alltäglich !!!!

[fendt9000]

@bfgtimis achhso des war eine vorrfürhung.. jaa dann xD ich sag ja nur :-P weil der arm verbiegt schnell :-P aber sonst geile sache xDD ist des ien deutscher manitou oder ein franöischer?!

[bfgtimis]

@fendt9000 Die Manitou Maschinen sind in Frankreich oder in Italien gebaut. Dieses Modell ist in Frankreich gebaut

[Marhleet]

if it retracted the extendable a tad it wouldn't overbalance

which would defeat the while funny of the video

[cacaest1987]

Bfgtimis is 100% right only some of manitous counterbalance trucks like the msi series and there Moffat lorry mounted stuff is hydrostatic the rest are hydronamic. Although I think alot of there new stuff is hydrostatic

[johnpetermalcolm]

I believe that the word "Manitou" is a Native American Indian word. It sort of means "the balance between nature & life".

It seems now it also means " the balance between machine & grass".

[SYLVESTERSTALLONE11]

i can do this on my MT972

[SYLVESTERSTALLONE11]

i can do this on my MT972 :)

[kikou87]

I didn't know the transmission that you described.. I trust you.

[kikou87]

This machine has an hydrostatic transmission. Simply watch the engine position. The engine is at the right of the machine, longitudinal way. Only with the hydrostatic drive is possible to put the engine in the preferred way, as in this case on the right, because transmission is done through hyd.pump-hoses-hydr.motor-card­an joint. With the hydrodinamic (converter-gears mechanical transmission) the engine must be absolutely aligned with joint cardan, because these are connected through gears.

[bfgtimis]

Sorry, but this is not true ! I can ensure it is a hydrodynamic drive. I shot the video and I worked at Manitou for 8 years ... So I know what I'm saying.

But to give you more information, the engine is effectively on the side of the machine (and not longitudinal but transversal) and there is a 90 degree bevel gear box, connected on one side to the hydraulic pump for the hydraulic system and on the other side, to a gearbox and then. through cardan shafts, to both axles.

[m1aws]

@bfgtimis So the difference between hydrostatic and hydrodynamic in the real world is?

[international4900]

wow my dad did that with ours

[vahelaager]

Done and done

[SupDawgImIrish]

OMFG this is sick, that guy should recieve a nobel prize for that....

[damnmyusenamewastook]

somebodies boss wasnt there watching

[kenzathur]

Get'er done!

[MalliganTheUFO]

SWL??? lol

[JimmyBoy2828]

Bravo brate! Ali interesujeme gde je to bio? Kojih grad?

[Mr24Hacker]

damn right it takes skill

[purelegend08]

EASY

[HardworkingAmerican]

Nice driving!!

[SillyDei]

now do it at highway speeds :)

[TheKiwigoose]

too much spare time but well done.

[niki2491]

This was filmed in Croatia!!!

[bfgtimis]

@niki2491 No it was in Serbia

[TheIggyman214]

this takes skill

[robby844]

umm just asking here.if its "hydrodynamic' like you claim then why does the website say they are all hydrostatic?

[bfgtimis]

@robby844 : Which website is telling they're all hydrostatic ? It's not the case ! Manitou is using mainly hydrodynamic drives and on some machines, hydrostatic

[MrFreemaan]

@We had one of these exact models tearing apart a stack after a fire. It was equipped with a hydrostatic transmission.

[swissmade99]

nice

[TheViciousPaintballa]

Very funny

[dasnorwin]

Crazy Russians

[bfgtimis]

@dasnorwin : It's a french driver from the factory and it's done in Serbia

[dasnorwin]

@bfgtimis okay ^^

[pfeiferbaumaschinen]

Great !!

[baclman]

thats so u should go around in a circle u can do turn when moving forward or back tho so the machine stays in line

[9661415]

i've done it in a cat1055 more by accident and did'nt have the ass end near that high,its an interesting feeling when you steer cause your in crab

[bonzo874]

cuillado ,Llamas !!!!!!!!!!!

[0luke]

Well is it hydro drive or what? I thought a lot of them were. Though perhaps its a bit big for it. I am impressed with the driving, though I wouldn't like to be too near it.

[pieman11321]

its like balancing a pop can

[KingTank306]

Ti Si Bosanac ?

[Wyder666666]

bo sie posracie ze smiechu zaraz !!!!!!!!!!

[touretteskid29]

was this a way to say that hydrostatic drive is bad?- not saying that i know a lot about it

[bfgtimis]

Didn't say that ! "Just said try to do this with a hydrostatic drive !" Can't you read ??? ;-)

[sparkygl0s]

But why did you say that? What is the point you are trying to make about a hydrostatic drive?

[bfgtimis]

No point at all

[pumpkinheadedsob]

@bfgtimis last time I checked there was no such thing as a telehandler without hydrostatic drive, some models like the one seen above have a seperate hydro-drive for the front and rear, while others only have one hydro-drive and a transfer case. If it where actualy direct drive with a clutch, the clutch wouldnt last a month on the average jobsite, and that just wont cut it.

[bfgtimis]

I do not agree with your comment. Hydrostatic drive means that you have a hydraulic pump and a hydraulic motor for the drive system. After, effectevely, all the other ones do not have clutch system but hydrodynamic system with torque converter (like a automatic gear box for a car !)

[scaniawahl]

@pumpkinheadedsob they have converters like auto transmissions, its not a normal clutch at least. when sideloading trucks you revs the engine and maintance the speed with the brake/ "clutch" in same pedal :)

[JPMADDOG1]

hes simply trying to showhow smooth the hydraulic is compared to the more jumpy hydrostatic drive. easy concept really

[steelmenonline]

wish my JCB could manage that!

[brightsider5]

koji luđaci, nema šta.

[batesville2]

just waitin for it to go forward and see the drivers head fly out the glass

[union263]

aww man thats easy

[stitsenj]

he is actually over loading it and probably doing damage to the boom...he probably doesnt own it other wise he wouldnt be such an idiot...way to many farmers are killed in accidents...dont be part of a statistic...lol

[bfgtimis]

It's the demonstrator from the Manitou factory who made this. He is not damaging the machine as the structure of the boom is largely strong enough to withstand this. The same also for the axmes !

[international660]

That wouldnt hurt a damn thing on this machine

[terralove09]

If this weight was even a threat of damaging this vehicle, the manufactures wouldnt have given it enough power to lift it. common sense here buddy. think, why dont cars always break their own axles? because they are built to withstand the power that the machine can put out.

[iamsuperbleeder]

lmao, I did that shit (well, not balancing) the other day at work, lifting a 7,500lbs spool of cable

[HEINZUNIMOG]

sweet  lol

[dinger1394]

crazy!!

[chilt02]

thats some smooth driving, reminds me of when i had to mov a set of rolls on the forkift and I couldn't keep the 4rears on the ground so I had to steer by feathering the clutch and useing the forklifts diff to steer :)

[oakstorm]

So tell my boys!

What is better a J.C.B that i live by!

Or a Manitou, Im not sure on this. But the old man is looking for something new. Sadly not yellow!

[bfgtimis]

For me Manitou is the best ! after, you have to see but red is nicer whatever happens ...

If you need any contact, just tell me. I can arrange it !

[ajs222222]

no problem jcb 526 did it for fun with me driving an bucket load of stone try driving a 886 round yard with kidd big bale chopper on, front wheels in air steering on indipedance daily was good

[surferirl]

would doing that not like fuck something up?

[bfgtimis]

When you do it, you put all the weight of the machine on the front axle only. It overloads slightly the axles but it is not a problem as the axles are strong enough !

[XKLIX]

I have tryed to do the same thing and trust me, its not that easy without some practise ;o)

Good controll on driver, Thumbs up ;o)

[ganguskhan]

Nice driving! Load charts mean nothing to this man. hehe

[johndeere8030]

very good nice control

[8x56]

Somebody has a real smooth touch. I did something similar with a Gradall years ago,no bounce,no tip,just BANG!

[MrMoorkey]

MENTAL!!!!

[tazztt1]

WOW! SKILL BABY!

[pavinjak]

jeste vi iz hrvatske, bosne, srbije????

[bfgtimis]

Srbije

[kadtenebisvaki]

...zar nisi shvatio po naglasku.....

[bfgtimis]

The one who did it is the demonstrator from the Manitou factory !

[tinadiva123]

that was brilliant but i am only 11 and i have been driving manitous since i was 7 and who ever did that must have been driving for a long long long time

[gfpd2722]

its petty simple with a telescoping loader you just pick up a heacy load the telescope it out till your back end lifts up then with a little practice you can get it to balance

[bfgtimis]

On the paper it is easy. As you say, take a heavy load and telescop. Did you try ? I'm driving telescopics since years and it is much easier to fall as to keep the balance !

[gfpd2722]

yeah i drive them to and it still takes a fair amount of skill to balance but they seem esier to get on too wheels than a conventional loader now keeping it there is a different story

[NORCOHUCKER]

Skills!!!

[odmcarp]

now that's well balanced...good job

[lukaszfaza]

też tak swoją robie

[175myles]

rofl yeh the title says it all!

[roberto218218]

haha

[ribinoct76]

been there, done that!!

[bfgtimis]

You did it ?

[ribinoct76]

yip, done it in a cat th360, take time to get the balance but once its up there its easy. also try getting all 4 wheels off the deck using the stabilisers and a heavy wieght, should be able to get the machine vertical if you've got the balls, not for long though or you end up starving the engine!

[sk389]

sweet man

[STUMPgrinder57]

I own Bobcat Versahandler 723s, it looks identical to this unit. Does antone know if Manitou makes the Bobcat unit ?.

[bfgtimis]

The Bobcat 723 is made in France, not far away from Manitou factory but it is not a Manitou production
