Awesome! I'll bet you're stoked. Can't wait to see the pics.

Where are they delivering it, front yard?

Pretty sure I'd have to let the Genie out of the bottle.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I wouldn't be able to sleep!

 

[woodworkingboy]

I'd be thinking, got to get serious about work now.

It is a 40 ft. container so I am having it delivered to my friend's place about 7 min. away. He has a small 2 acre farm with lots of room to unload and set up everything. We are getting a flatbed tow truck to unload the container since we don't have a truck dock.

Especially when the payment book shows up

We backed a roll back truck up to the back of the trailer and drove the lift out and on to the roll back. Might work for you, the container and trailer will be a little higher than a standard dry van trailer.


Congrats!!!! Tell Lenny hello for me.Wesley

Hey Dave, check your PM's!

 

[lumberjack]

I was thinking the container might be a bit tight, the container that was there when I was there was only a 20'er eh?

I'm stoked for ya! I'll have to come back over and try my hand at prunning again.

 

[Paul B]

right on Wesley.

Dave,
I have a 22 ft. flatbed roll back truck scheduled to off load the container at 0900 Thursday. I will bring some blocks to raise the truck if it is a little low. When we off loaded the 15GT, the roll back truck I hired used his hydraulic tow hitch to raise the back of the truck to even up the bed with the container. It should work out fine.

I'll tell Lenny hello for you.

We got the container unloaded yesterday and received the training session from Lenny. Lift and trailer works great and the orchard ladders I got are very nice too. I will be putting in the dump assembly in my pickup today. Signs get installed on lift today also and we are having a demo of the lift at Kailua High School tomorrow. About 15 tree companies as well as the Altec rep in Hawaii are attending.

Took my 3 yr. old grandson up and he did not want to come back down.

Here are photos of the trailer and grandson up in the lift.

In case you were wondering, I did have him tied in securely.
He loved it up there.

 

[Mr. Sir]

Sweet!

 

[sotc]

Lets see the dump too!

 

[darkstar]

Wowsa , Oh i do love that machine Wesley.
Im slobbering.
We could use that so badly on some of these back yard dead nightmares.

 

[Mr. Sir]

Well, heck. Buy one! All you need is a pen.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Very nice! Congratulations!

 

[woodworkingboy]

Could have used that yesterday. Best of luck with it!

 

[stehansen]

Awesome Wesley. That should be perfect for where you live.

 

[simplypete]

wow, what a great looking machine. I am curious to see a close up of the tree package and protection that they put on. Also, wondering about your thoughts on vulnerabilities you think might come up. Do you have any information as to how many of their machines are out there doing tree work?
I'm sure we will get some pics of it in action soon enough. Hope things work out great, congrats.
