Monday’s Horse Chestnut. It lost a large chunk in recent high winds. The remaining section was overhanging a 60mph Road. A couple of hours and half a load and she was down and cleared.

Looked like it was doing well to hang on there

And a good one from clearing some big pops yesterday, felled the tree along the woodland edge and lifted it over the fence and into the chipper with the forwarder. IMG-20180417-WA0000.jpg

How do you find the landrover Mewp for driving stability?  I quite fancy one but have been put off through observing them on the roads.  They were probably being driven too fast though to be fair

Once you get used to how they handle, they’re fine. At first I found it to be a bit like steering a ship! But they’re no different to much else really after a while.

Few suspension changes like the biggest anti role bar you can find, uprated shocks and wider tyres help quite a bit but like Mike said driving style has a lot to do with it.
