You have got to do a nice long video of that thing working.

That looks like a dandy! Here is a roadbuilder I just picked up in Longview the other day, the second one the outfit I work for bought. Sorry for the bad pic, taken in the sun so I couldn't see the screen.

Those are some beautiful shots of the new processor Hallback. The new link-belts seem a little under-hp for their weight. Some of it seems to be that they have even more U/C than normal for forestry machines. Maybe they are just heavy for their classes. Either way, I'd hear you thoughts on performance after a couple months. What are the plans for the Barko processor?
Roadbuilder pics are always great. The folding cab on the 18" risers really gets the transport height down.

Yes, it's a 623c with the optional 3rd delimb arm.

Barko went back. Lack of support was our biggest complaint.
Yes, the new 40 series are all about 5-6k heavier per class compared to their predecessors. It has plenty of power for the little (10+/- hrs) I have run it though.

hi, does anyone know the weight of a john deere 892E log loader. thanks
John Deere 892E LC excavator is around 67450 lbs so the high rise log loader version is going to more than that, depending on the shoes, grapple design etc. Even the fuel weight makes difference - empty or full tank on the larger machines.

I agree. A lot of them have additional counter slabs. However 90 is probably close. If I was going to put it on 9 behind a 105,000 licensed tractor and was 65,000 empty and thought 90 was good I would request my permit for 159,999 it would leave me with 4,999 pounds of slack and still costs 1.14 per mile

You guys are all wrong. They are sitting down at the cafe eating biscuits and gravy drinking coffee as there is no way in hell they are going to throw iron and play in the snow.

Hi Jimmy, welcome to HEF. Looking forward to seeing your pics, think you need to post 5 messages on here before it lets you upload photos, just in case you're scratching your head

Jimmy has been around here for years. He has a road construction & crushing company. They build some of the finest roads that I have seen. They do excellent work.
