Yep, next Sunday is when the second payment is due, we've put ~150 hours on it. We need to figure out a storage spot for the 36" outrigger pads and an easier way to move cribbing with the variety of machines we could have on a given site. I misunderstood while we were setting up, we had more...

Funky tree, fairly tight setup. Normal tree, tighter setup. Two outriggers out 100%, two at 40% and 45%.

Driving there wasn't a big problem, we did use the blade on the excavator to knock some dirt into a depression to average out the slope a bit. The machine has ~7* of leveling each way side to side. We were approaching the limits of the tractive effort with the slope and sandy soil (higher...

Readout said this piece was 4klb and change.

Not the best setup, but it got the job done.

Meh asphalt driveway we’ve worked on for over 20 years, sitting still, and only ~2-2.5klb pieces. Tire pressure is only going to be so much. I don’t have the lmi readout to calculate the weight on the front axle with that pick. Empty and retracted grapple is 24.5klb. 3 years and a week or...

😂😂 It’s been a couple months since the bid, I remembered needing the lift.. when I pulled up I told the guy that started the job that I could flop that across the driveway, but I’m already here with the MRT so whatever… then I saw the broken limb in another tree I was supposed to get and it...

It has a chart for working off the tires over the front and 360°. I don’t use it very often, but often it’s a handy option.

Sub 3 minute take down this morning.

Heck I didn't realize the 201 was made in a rear handle. For that size we use a Husky 540iXP.

I don’t have one, but am curious if you want it for the novelty or some niche.

That’s the email listed on that account. I sent you a new password a day or two ago, did that not work?

This past Thursday. After I get more comfortable with the situation, a tree like this should take 10-15 minutes, assuming I only have to cut a couple limbs out of the way. This cut was around ~80' at around a 35' radius. From memory the top was ~3klb.

Me either. Can you post a link? I haven’t changed anything recently, I do see that’s an old thread/post.
