    My new knuckleboom

    Okay if I'm understanding you correctly, mine will start to limp if I'm stretched too far out and I'm making my cut at full capacity. It'll go real slow. Is this what you're talking about?

    Chip body, log lift and large chipper combo. Thoughts?

    Hmm. I'm almost positive that one leaked on me and it was an O-ring. On a sg220 model though

    Which cylinder is leaking? Don't mean to bust your bubble but get used to it. Lol. Always carry extra grapple hoses, and O-ring kit in a truck

    Sorry been very busy lately.. but that's my point, i run the grapple as much as i can. You'll see how nice it is to just reach and grab and have a climber make the cuts..

    Once u get a little more comfortable with the whole setup try running the grapple + climber setup. It's very fast. Once again start small intill you understand how much the Mecanil reacts/tilts. (U don't want to hit the climber) awesome setup, if u were closer id be there to help.

    It's been raining just about every day here in Michigan, it was a breeze to clean this parking lot after we were done with the BMG rake. It was wet muddy and heavy it would really suck to do by hand

    Of course the MINI changed the game for all of us. Next the BMG on the mini eliminated lazy ground guys. Next the BMG rake eliminates 90% of the hand raking. (Thanks Dave) @tnttree Let's not forget the senas. Now we communicate like a educated connected crew. No more yelling and screaming to...

    Also if possible i try to work over the back if lifting heavy.. Was your Outriggers fully extended? Were you using matting underneath them? They can sink once you apply weight or just by simply running you boom fully extended horizontally. The side that I'm working off of I usually double up...

    Okay stop what you're doing and take your truck out to your woodlot, and start lifting small pieces then build up to larger pieces, and see where your limit is on your machine. The last thing you want to is Flip Your Truck. You'll get the hang of it. Also keep in mind on a knuckle boom you WANT...
