New Toro Tx 1000 Wide Track

Some people just don't get it,
I doubt most people even know what it is,
or have had the treat of forwarding on a swinger with an implemax

Heres a Toro! oldies but goodiesView attachment 41027

You are not really gonna pull out a pict of the dinosaur "VERDINGO" are you? Dumb set up and beyond dumb to put a piece that size in a BC2000 (I own one) regardless of whether it will beat itself to death to accomodate you to take it. Let's "talk on a higher level" (Shigo) umkay?

Demand drives the market. If his grapple sucked so much I would imagine not too many people would continue to buy it.

No one does the same job the same exact way.

Articulating loaders are just the industry's attempt to get the (dopey) tree guys to buy more shiny stuff (and get rid of their superior old stuff). No way is a zero turn radius mini like my Toro TX 1000 inferior to an articulating thing that needs a thousand back and forth movements just to go the other direction when doing residential work in, say, a tight (for example) movement between two houses....NO WAY...

Here's who Dave (the "good guy Dave" lol) learned how to do tree work from....

Theres a Toro in this old video derail derail
I would suspect quite a bit more skidding and driving on the lawn
with a horizontal style grapple in this particular job scenario
Operator has about a year and half of operating on the machine and grapple,
works for a legend in the industry.

aaand....Just what tf makes a "legend in the industry"? Bunch of you ole farts flapping your lips more about one guy than another? It is all the same processes. I suppose, unlike the objections to the contrary from "TC (tired climber) 262" above it must be time in saddle and observed difficult jobs. If that is the case, I bet if there were some kind of "time in meter" up in the sky, I got more "time in" than any of you morons. I have no need nor desire to schmooze around with you convention guys and tell years gone by stories...I still take on any tree every day at 67 then go to the gym. And don't give me that shit your trees are bigger, whatever big trees we have are plenty big and however bigger they were, we'd just climb a little higher and knock out the damn job....no biggie.

Now HERE's a legend in the business....

Treevet, we all love your trolling. It's endearing.

Actually I have been holding out on everybody.
This is hands down the best way to get the job done.
gets 2000 miles to the gallon, no greenhouse gases, silent running, 12 MPH
Its so simple to step off and throw a choker rope around a uuuge pile of brush.
wrap it around your hand a couple times and over your shoulder. I'm designing a body harness with a back loop so I can just carabiner the rope to my butt, No turf damage it will run circles around any mini loader.
I have to say Kicks ass on all articulating loaders and mini skids and get this I have NO grapple costs.
get with it Tree Brothers this is the future

MY top Legends in the tree Industry, Shigo, Chisholm, Beranek, Poor, Stennis, Ball, Good, Cox, McMahon, and many more that have added significantly to the practice of arboriculture.

Found another Dingo picture,
This has to be one of my grapples when I had the 3/8" cheapo hoses. look at them dangle, definitely a PIA , stupid mistake

I'm holding out for the unicycle version - purer zero turn.

I have to admit gaining most of my skid steer operating expeirence running a full size machine with grapple bucket making the switch to a mini with a bmg was huge learning curve. The mini has many advantages over the full size machine and most of them are directly associated with the bmg.

thx

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.

 

[Tanner28]

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.

 

[tnttree]

I seen the Gierkink in Germany last year - blew me away.
that and your mechanil are going to change the industry.
Swinger (or 540) and a bypass grapple superior choice for removal dominance

man did this Toro thread get derailed or what

Boys for one day we can say TreeVet's grapple is the best.

 

[Merle Nelson]

So.....more than one person likes to stir the cauldron.

Too soon.

No stiring intended trying to add a little holiday humor to this silly derailed post.

 

[Merle Nelson]

Oh. That's a nice idea.
