If every instructor and examiner is as friendly and enthusiastic as this guy, training will be much more pleasant than the thought of it! Great video guys 👍🏼
Thanks for the kind words!
Passed my test with this legend.
A1 is one of the most professional company ever. 😊
Thanks you! Well done last week!
Thank you all with the help and instructions in obtaining my license. Appreciate it 🙏🏼
Really instructional video. Given me some confidence going into my Class 1 test.
Good luck!
passed my class one back in spring 2003. before that i was a bus driver. I never looked back. less hours, more money, strait roads and better people to work with. just better job all round.....
Glad you like it 🚛
Hi brother Jake. Hope you're well. I passed in January and struggling to get a job. I'm
Where you working❓️ are there any jobs available where you work❓️
@@ringmaster996 I work in Snodland in Kent, now part time. All the east Europeon drivers that left are now coming back. most of the slack around here has dried up. whereabouts are you at? The money is a lot better then before so the industry is now suffering a surge so to speak. Try your best to get into an agency and get some mileage under your belt, always looks good on a CV. just go easy for the first few months. you passed your test but you are still learning....
How much is the practical lesson
@@mohammedhamdon128 I would not know now but as an idea why not google "HGV driving schools near me" and then Email them for advice. prices alter up and down the country, look local....
Very clear and concise, thank you.
Thank you!
hi, great video, took my hgv 1 test in a Bedford tk,easy could look out of the back window,the trailer was a flat bed,
Great Video! So informative 👏
This is the very truck I passed my class 1 test in with Tim. A top company and a top trainer named Tim I could not recommend these guys enough.
Thanks Theo!
Nice calm instructions. Rather than the idiot I had. Who thought shouting and screaming every time I made a mistake was teaching me.
Passed my test. But no thanks to him and told him so
Glad we could help!
Got my class 1 training and test in a few weeks and this video is super helpful 👍 Thanks
Thank you! Glad it helped, good luck on your test 👍
Fantastic video best one I've seen regarding these 2 tasks 👍
Thanks Joe we appreciate it! Glad it helped 👍
Great vid as a class one driver of 34 years, you passed the test 😂
Thanks 👍
Very interesting tutorials
passed my class 1 test yesterday great videos :)
Congratulations well done!!
I passed my 3a Reversing and couple/uncouple today! Driving test tomorrow!
Good luck!!
Passed driving test with 4 minors! Now the real learning begins!@@a1trainingservices
Excellent
Thanks
Glad you liked it 👍
great video very informative,my dads been a trucker my whole life and ive spent basically my childhood between trucks, some stuff i was thought is not to just put the legs dont but try to put some pressure on them, no need to crank it hard just enough to relieve some presure and something else REALLY IMPORTANT he told me is that, with empty trialers its not that important but with loaded trailers you want to make sure to drop your truck suspension after rolling forward a little bit when the fifth wheel is out of reach from the kingpin that way the suspension doesnt just rise quickly and the kingpin tears something, these trailers have a lot of flex in the nose, that + the suspension rising up quickly because it lost the weight it had on it can catch a kingpin on the chasis, some trucks in his company have a few nicks on the crossmember at the back of the chassis because of that i guess if you have sliders on the back of your chassi it would be okay but i never saw them fitted to any truck in spain, i guess this goes bck to when trucks had no air suspension and you had to ram your truck into the trailer to attach it
Your correct is what your saying, however at this stage of training we simply leave the cab at the same ride hight and induce the use of adjusting the suspension later on in training. Thanks for a great comment 👍
@@a1trainingservices yeah that makes sense its just that my dad was worried about banging the chassis while teaching me how to drive lorries hahaha
@@a1trainingservices very nice work keep it up!
When i did my class 1 in 2009, I was taught to lower the suspension after coming off the kingpin and to raise it on the way back on. Raising the suspension when coupling reduces the risk of damaging the trailer legs or overshooting the kingpin. Trailers can be at slightly different heights owing to whether the driver who left it there wound the legs all the way or left them a couple of inches off the ground when they uncoupled. If you go for a driving assessment, ALWAYS ask the assessor what the official company procedure is with regards to shunting.
@@raithrover1976 your correct in what you say, however when we are teaching students for their 3a test we simplify it by not adjusting the suspension. Once the 3a is passed we will then teach the use of adjusting the suspension.
Thank you sir
Your welcome, glad you enjoyed!
I'm starting my test soon 🎉
Good luck 🤞
I so lucky in the C +E test , I got the trailer in without going forward once, up to that point it in practice i always had to shunt
Well done!
That was an excellent video with a good narrative. If I was being hyper-critical, I would suggest that the air and electrics could have been reconnected a bit more tidily. If you had to make a tight turnaround there's a good chance they'd get caught on each other and overstretched. I'd actually have made the point on the video about reconnecting as tidily as possible for that very reason.
Thanks for the tips! Glad you enjoyed!
Thanks for such informative videos Sir ...
Just a request please show zooming in videos or pics of coupling equipments , I mean it would be even more helpful to understand all procedure...
2nd query is about how to make sure everything is done perfectly, I mean in cars we get alert if even any door , tailgate or bonnet isn't closed perfectly so considering this trailer job is more dangerous then is there any electronic device to assure everything is good ... Any such technologies in new trucks!!!
Please make a video (longer like this one) to explain dashboard n internal controls of trucks ...
Sorry for asking so many questions (considering my username 😅) but as I talked about patience so how you deal with students who lose patience and get irritated after some time ( read in a book how human brain has to do 100s of calculations for driving a car) so considering it's a big truck means tooo much calculations then social media has reduced our attention span n tolerance, then seems it's haaaaaaard. . so what's solution for this.
Once again thanks and sorry for such questions
Hi thanks for the comment! It would be great if there was something like that around but unfortunately I’m not aware of anything like that, new trucks have more technology but nothing to help with coupling and uncoupling.
Thanks for the video suggestion, we will try and fill some more in out next sessions👍
Old Morrisons trailer getting put to good use i see 😁
Yes good spot!
I was advised to line up the unit to the trailer before walk around check as there may be no room to do so at an RDC
Yes there’s no problem with doing it that way round, whichever you find easier 👍🚛
3 points of contact 🤣 great video
Thanks! 😃
I think I'm going to use a1 for my class 1 ,got my theory soon if all goes well il be booking it
Great to hear! Give you a call on 0121 789 8471 when your ready!
Love your training school, how I wish to access your school is my dream
Wow, thank you!
Hi I’m 18 I just got my car license can I already do class 2? Or do I have to wait 3 years or something?
You need to wait 6 months then your good to go 👍
Don't forget to check DVLA plate on the trailer when doing your checks.
👍🚛
🙏🙏
Keep a firm hold of the air suzies when releasing them as they will shoot out and will hurt if they hit you!
Very good point 👍

Thank you!
how do you take a very tight left hand turn, for example how do you know WHEN to start the turn i=of the wheel
Hi Paul in what type of vehicle?
@@a1trainingservices a C+E
2 Shunts when i did my test you werent allowed a single shunt
Hi Dave, iv check and shunts have always been available on the 3a tests. Thanks A1 Training
@@a1trainingservices If that the case why was i failed 1st time and told NO shunts Im going back 40 years
@@davesmith4807 going back 40 years 😂😂😂😂
@davesmith4807 lol lots of things change from 40 years ago 😆
Woohoo good job dear, can you please show me how to change gears
Hi Mary, all our trucks are automatic.
@@a1trainingservices ok dear I want to know how to drive please make one video from inside how you drive ok thank you
Whath the feck was that? No no no .
Pull off the king pin 🛑 STOP and drop all air out of air bags on drive axle ie lower air suspension, watch trailer very carefully and gently pull forward, check trailer is not sinking and get out of your suspicious as legs may have failed / you left them up or ground had given way. If you get no resistance and the lorry pulls forward easily the. Trailer is landed ... Pull out reset air suspension and no drama.
DO NOT EVER PULL OFF A LOAD TRAILER LIKE THIS BLOKE YOU WILL GET YOUR ARSE KICKED.
Hi Basher we totally agree in normal circumstances you would use your air, however for the 3A exercise this is the procedure used.
