Seems to work great! Yes that log is about 2k lbs. It's not small.

Do you have the blade down as an outrigger? Can't tell with the snow. Jon
I think in that picture I did. Actually was able to pick it up off the side first though. Little tippy but managed. It's a 30 dbh elm log that's about 12 feet in length

Anyone have a good source for an owners manual and repair manual? Would like to order those

Real good idea to have manuals, I ordered a set of service manuals for my Volvo excavator off e bay, or if you’ve got a case construction dealer nearby they should be able to get them. Just curious what does dbh stand for? Dam big honkin?

Looks nice. I’d have to cut that log into two or three pieces to pick it up.
