alot of contractors over here use farm tractors with blades and winches for skidders, old county tractors being popular! but big contractors use proper skidders

lg junior; " Here is a 360 timberjack I had rented in 1990 with a non-turbo Perkins diesel, quite possibly the noisiest machine I have ever run." - bottom of page 4


Well I'll second you on that statement about the noisiest machine ever run. I ran one of these once with a snow blade doing roads and I had to stop and twist ear plugs in and then put the earmuffs back on! It was still loud. I couldn't imagine running one for an 8 - 10 hour shift! No wonder I have hearing aids!:rolleyes:
