dam you pretty nimble for a big guy........i ain't goin up there, i'll trim it on the ground for ya lol.
It ain't so bad, yer tied in real good with cable in that rope and the spurs stick real nice as they're fairly new and sharp, just have to get past the part where your 30 feet in the air with a chainsaw.

Don't think I could do more then one of these a day though... 320 pounds of me and another say 50 pounds of gear, drug straight up, is a metric **** ton of work.

Yeah 1210B they could of done a much better job with the wiring and put a better support setup for the back half instead of 30mm bolts.

I havent met a forwarder yet that won't have tail trouble eventually. Our first ponsse was redone 3 times before trade in. We haul two tiers of eight foot wood so its hard on the tail. Always figured you guys hauling longer logs wohld not have as much trouble
 
This is the 10th rebuild on the tail on this machine with 12,000 hours most of the guys here build a plate to connect the two halves.

They work, but they are pretty worn out so they don't bite the tracks like they should anymore, we hardly ever run without the tracks unless it's super dry.

We re tracked up all the time too. Saves on tires. Try the new nokian tires next time you need a set. They're made special for riding in tracks and bite real well.
 
I doubt we buy a set before we get rid of the machine, I'd like to try the timbco timber pro forwarders one day but I don't think I could train the employee we have to run one.
