If you remove the bar there's 2 unused holes which look like they're for mounting a set of metal teeth. I thought about making a plate to fit mine but on a small saw like that they're not really needed

Dogs. I take all mine off, even on the big saws

What powering it from a seperate vehicle or replaceing <2 tonnes of vehicle with 2 tonnes of ballast?

Does it not have extendable legs for stability most vehicle mounts???

Whats the maximum basket working height?

 

[sako243]

Yes it does hence the vehicle is only ballast.

16.5m on this one vertical as it's a pole access design (I.e. Designed for height not outreach).

I don't recognize the boom manufacturer, but I take it the legs are fully extended and the ballast is on top of the deck plate of the boom, when you use the boom ?

 

[sako243]

Yes

 

[zzr1200]

Yes

An interesting method/way of usage.

Why not just install a largest Honda stationary engine with hydraulic pump, instead of having to connect the 110?

If your boring into big trees, you loose depth of cut due to the dogs. They’re meant to make cross cutting logs a bit easier for the operator

 

[Fred Trevvett]

That's what longer bars are for

Because that's extra expense and the short long term goal is to have it mounted on the Sandringham which has it's own PTO hydraulic pump already.

The picker came with a hydraulic pump suitable for the LT230 on the Defender (the 6x6 runs an LT95). So I had all the bits and it was just a case of bolting them up. I had some hoses made so it's just some FFC quick couplers to attach it.

Only if your an amateur or a American logger !

One tool I won't touch. Scares the poo out of me. loads of people buy one from Aldi/Lidl. But then forget the proper PPE. There is a reason that you can't hire one without a chainsaw ticket.
