Yeah and put 5 preforms on the first 2 spans.. The brakes help stop an over-wrap which is also very dangerous. I had a crazy supervisor name Doug Scott who screamed at me for going too slow on a pole with 33KV and 138KV bare only 10' above.. He kicked me out of the bucket and had the driver go 8mph, stop and frame the pole out and restart.. Mind you we're on a busy 4 lane highway, needless to say it over-wrapped and not only sent an asshole through the Sherman roller, it ripped the trailer out into traffic and almost wreaked 2 cars. Guy was nuts!
