Bought this brand new Alpine Machinery Aero Float last week to carry my excavator around . Listened to the spiel from the owner about how good they were and how they used to be in machinery transport and knew how a good low loader should be built . I only bought it on his word and the website photos as their yard is 1200 kilometres from me . I had it delivered to my home and was appalled by the workmanship , NO penetration welds , lack of side and rear reflectors , lack of OVERSIZE sign and beacon , no positive stops on the ramps as the chains are pulling against the rams but what amazed me most was the fact that I could not find the controls to lower the ramps . I followed the hoses for the ramps into a bolted down lid in the deck . You can imagine the shock and disappointment at finding that there was no hydraulic pump , battery , battery leads or even fittings on the hoses to do the job . The ramps had been painted two days before and must have been raised with a forklift , chained forward and sent to me .
orders that would not be required
