Tractor
Kubota L4400
I had the oportunity to demolish 3 manual move, hydraulic lift, pallet trolleys today. They were going to be abandoned with the sale of a building. I now have 3 forklift decks and 24v hydraulic pumps with 1000kg, 1m lift cylinders.

It should be a simple matter of welding on some brackets to suit the 3pl on my L4400. One will remain a forklift. One will be modified to hold a chain to pull trees out. A previous attemp at a tree puller using a pneumatic clamp failed. (I can hear the "I told you so from here!) This time I will use a chain around the trunk and pulled by the 3pl. Again the old methods prove to be the best.

My next problem is how to make use of the hydraulic pumps. They are one way with an electric solenoid to release the oil to lower. In the meantime I will just have to find an empty corner in my shed.:)
