MTL Post and Tree puller

[Smokeydog]

Good extraction! Enjoy.

Most grip force, lift and curl strength at back of jaws.

Wouldn’t take much to make a guard to protect the tractor and puller hoses. Mine uses a spring hose keeper to control hose slack. Bigger and more narly trees to come. The guard helps when i stack a pile and carry off.

I agree about grip strength. This one was up against an old shed I have so I couldn't get too far onto it. And I have not gotten the hang of it yet. I have only pulled 3 trees so far.

Trees will flip flop on anyone.

It wouldn't be too hard or expensive to weld on a push bar to the top of the tree puller frame.

I thought about that. I have the steel, so it would be free.

Yup... I would recommend one too... the one on our little puller makes a big difference... & ours is just a simple push bar. design



The one thing on my "to get to" list is building a protective cover for the hydraulic cylinder
