  7. True, but it feels far more likely that something will go wrong if you reverse load it! You aren’t meant to be stood on the machine when either loading or unloading, forwards or backwards.
  8. Pins drop through holes in the ramp ends and through holes drilled in the bed.
  9. Thanks, yeah I was pleased.
  10. What do your ramps lock in to to preventing them from sliding off?
  11. Much easier forward, walking up with a foot on each ramp behind the machine as doobin says Not the way to load, as said weight is above you and if something goes wrong your under it.
  12. i'm pretty sure i used to reverse my M10 skid up ramps as was alot more controlled and standing the back
  13. https://www.planninghandbook.com/ SCAM ALERT
  14. Old thread. This morning had some bloke ring up reckoning to be from local council. Asked if I wanted my details for survey work to go in planning publication. He sent me the info. Spotted scam straight away - obviously since about £600 quid for advert. He was very convincing on phone, council area phone code I think. Making out he worked for council. Anyway not much chance of getting £6 off Yorkshireman, nevermind £600.
  15. I'd take a trip to Epping Forest and look at the beech and oak pollards
  16. Good stuff Hank. Looks like the tree it was hung up in didn’t suffer too much either.
  17. I hear that reverse loading these machines is a good idea. Presumably by people who have never tried it. It feels as sketchy as hell. Much easier forward, walking up with a foot on each ramp behind the machine as doobin says.
  18. Obviously I have an Avant not a mini skid, but it seems dodgy to follow the machine up. Safer to back up, if things go tits up, you’re not underneath.
  19. Going up forwards is easy so long as you don’t stand on the machine. reversing up feels worse.
  20. As per title- does anyone have something I could adapt? Mainly small scale forestry felling and forwarding with the log bullet.
  21. As per title- does anyone have something I could adapt?
  22. I’d say reversing up is a better idea.
