Compared to most projects posted here this is a little one but took half a day to do it. Moved a shed 50' uphill to a new location. . I still get amazed at what these little tractors can accomplish.

It is not the best looking shed and due to the slope made mowing difficult. There is a fence to one side and electric pole behind so didn't have alot of maneuver room. Had to rotate and then pull it up hill. The ground was still wet from Fridays' rain so traction was a major problem. I had to back the 2210 till the wheels would slip and then raise the loader to move the shed then back up some more, etc, inching my way up the hill. I also used some slab side timbers to help it slide and keep from tearing up the yard too much. It is a 8X12 wood shed made out of 2X4 walls, plywood flooring and aluminum walls. It ios pretty stoutand I beleive it weighs somewhere between 600-1000lbs but I could be wrong

Yup- that baby gets toastie in the summer with metal on the roof and sides. How hot can it get before the gas can explodes? /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

My only suggestion would be.. keep your FEL arms/ bucket as low to the ground as possible.. hook the chain in a fashion on your bucket so you can lift w/ the bucket curl. W/ your bucket that high in the air.. you can get in trouble real fast. Glad it worked out.

Nice work! How long did it take? I've got to move a 30' metal quanset shelter later this spring (I gotta go about 1/4 mile across the pasture).

Make sure you grab a friend or relative. I did it myself which required getting on/off tractor a bunch of times to move the wood skidding. It took me about 4 hours but that included taking out all the stuff and putting it back.
