Today's job chipping up thinned out trees.

Crane fed chipping:

So we got a plate made up for a tow hitch and winch. The portable winch pole mount fits in perfectly.

Thats a question I want to ask!

[shillo]

looks good but how does the winch not just drag the machine? could you fix on some kind of ground anchor like the tractor winches?

Thought I'd cut to the chase!

£17,950 + Vat for the 7" tracks (cash value) They upgraded mine to 9" tracks for free because they lost my grapple bucket somewhere in the Atlantic ocean.

 

Great kit but terrible to deal with. if you do buy one make sure you get the workshop number. Saves a fair bit of on hold time.

It weighs 1,300kgs for starters and has rear securing points fir required. I havent tested it yet but i think i could lower it to the ground and use that as the ground anchor.

 

Thinking about it you may have just solved any self recovery issues.

Me too, sounded very blunt.
