A Boughton would be ideal, its finding one thats the problem.

Absolutely not for assisted directional felling; too slow.

It is working well, the radiator is still in one piece, although the purple paint is starting to wear off.

Hi mate yes it was old major good old thing we had 250kgs weight frame on front help keep the front all you need to do is make sure the winch butt plate is well into the ground before pulling and do not pull out of line thanks Jo

Sounds ideal John. Did you make up the frame yourself? Any pics?

 

Beep beep, make way for the mighty Nuffield, with a Fransgard twin 3.5 winch.

Lush it is.

Sorry i don't have a close up, but there are a few of my videos with it working.

 

Hi Slack Ma Girdle. That looks like a beauty! Nice wide footprint and beefy rear tyres... bet you get some good traction with that set up?

Do you find that the 3.5 tonne winch is powerful enough for what you do? Be interested to see the videos you mention.. where can I find them?

 

Cheers. Rob

Hi TimberCutterDartmoor. What would be your winch recommendation for said tractor, for assisted directional felling? (tonnage etc).

 

Cheers. Rob
