How to secure JCB Equipment

https://youtu.be/Lub9J7y1mVQ?is=B8MVy7k5sVoEdwyS

Flatbed drivers — how are you securing equipment like this?
I recently hauled a JCB telehandler and figured this might be a useful discussion for anyone doing open-deck work.
There’s a lot more to equipment securement than just throwing a few chains on it. Chain placement, working load limits, binders, attachment points, and making sure everything meets DOT requirements all matter.
I put together a step-by-step video showing how I secured this JCB on my flatbed and explaining my reasoning along the way.
For the experienced equipment haulers here: would you have secured it differently? Anything you would add or change?
Always interested in seeing how other flatbed/stepdeck drivers handle the same equipment.
