    New Toro Tx 1000 Wide Track

    I have a Gehl Al540 and a swinger 2000. Curious what you find more appealing about the Giant? Did you buy equal in size to the Gehl?

    New Toro Tx 1000 Wide Track

    I've raved about this machine and setup for 5yrs. It still amazes me on the mass material you can move and how fast it can feed a chipper. For my market it's so good we just bought a new gehl al540 to pair up with it. It will drag entire trees, turn on a dime, and zero and I mean zero yard damage.

    New Toro Tx 1000 Wide Track

    This is a work horse combo. A grapple saw crane, 18" chipper, along with a swinger loader and a bypass grapple. The loader with the bypass grapple is the favorite.

    New build project for Gallo Tree PK50002 D JP125E JV1 w/ Mecanil GS220

    That's a fast cut. Great job on the hydraulics.

    Tipped over gehl al540

    I have a swinger 2000. A big thing is that when you turn the wheelbase gets shortened. With the shorter wheelbase you lose leverage and capacity. If I'm close to capacity then the load is always carried low, especially when I need to turn. In these situations I always am ready to quickly lower...

    I forgot to mention, it all comes off to fold the crane up!

    Thanks Jerad, yours also! Great idea on the coupler block. Royce, when I first started playing with the machine at my house the first thing I noticed was how strong the grapple was. I have a rotating grapple on my swinger 2000 articulating loader and there is no comparison. I pinched a 3-4...

    There's a flatbed on it now. I do have a dump box being built to go on.

    With the winch on there I'm at 14'. It travels folded up, but I pull the winch off I can travel unfolded and keep the grapple hooked up.

    I wasn't to keen on that second to last piece. I forgot to grab my climbing gear to hang the chokers. I took time though and it worked good. It takes some practice to not pinch the bar with certain cuts. After a bit though I learned what NOT to do. Once I started to get a flow going, the setup...

    32" dbh. I had a blast. Steep learning curve, but man once you get going it's great.
