    3pt tractor winches

    the bigger stuff definately pulls better from the bar at the bottom of the winch. mostly i just pulled from the top pulley on the winch, but big stuff (2ft plus diameter) i would get hooked on the lower bar and it was much easier to move. also the rock arms move towards the tractor as they...

    Chipper trap doors

    if you work in the winter the slush and snow can collect and freeze up the wheels if the door is left closed. when working in clean conditions where you dont want to have to rake extra close the door. when working where grit, gravel, ice etc can get into the chipper. open the door to let...

    3pt tractor winches

    not a good shot of the winch but its a farmi 351. the tractor is 40hp. working alone i could put out about 30cd or 1500 bdft. a week. that was loggin like it was my only goal in life. i was makin money. most people cant make a tractor move enough wood to pay for itself. but i was motivated.
