- Many over the years, + '05 JD-4410 TLB, but quite proud of my big green "Rolls": AKA: 2006 JD-3520 Cab, HST, Tunes & 2-way tiltmeter, Cobra communications and 6" (x2) rear wheel spacers for a lot less pucker-factor!!
TREES,....pushed,..pulled, cut,..roped,..chained,..dead, alive, rotted, healthy, frozen, or even left alone standing there minding their own business,...when a "tractor" gets involved,.. remember, .. for every Action,....there is ..USUALLY,.. a RE-Action !!!
Sometimes it's good,..sometimes it's not so good,...sometimes you even think, ..Hmmm,.. no reaction. Wait for it,..Watch for it,..Listen for it,..Prepare for it, just be very careful of your "NEXT" move, . . "that's" what could trigger it !! (as some have already testified) (why even chained together at a slight angle,...an innocent downed tree just sitting there,..with just a little encouragement, can "lurch" ahead pulling your tractor over on its side!)
CAUTION ! ....Tractors and Trees,..can be very dangerous when "mixed" !! Just ask any logger, tree trimmer, bush worker,etc,..OR ~Tractor Owner~ who've learned from close calls.
Of course this "danger" includes axes, chain saws,....and matches,..but this discussion concerns ~"Trees and Tractors"~ so lets try to stay (close) to the topic as there are "plenty" of scary "lessons" to engage us awhile. Just "ONE" more TRACTOR related topic for Extreme Caution !!
CHEERS!
