Pushing a tree down with a Telehandler

[@minimonsterbulldogs1989]

I love his channel because he doesn't edit out mistakes. His saw gets stuck and he films himself freeing with another saw. Noone else shows that.

[@Mr22Ram]

I agree, I think that’s why we all follow him and love him, his stuff is so raw and real, huh legit only started monetizing his videos like a couple months ago and that’s bc he broke one of the drones filming so he wanted to replace it, such a genuine guy

[@Trdbrglr75]

Yea agreed. I prefer seeing realness. Mainly because, if/when I go to do it, I’ll know how to handle it and what to expect.

I thought for sure that tree was going to kick back and take out that shed wall!

[@jamesnm21]

Hinge cutting usually prevents that

[@POLOLOUS3]

Because he left so much hinge wood it easily could have. Very dangerous. So much easier to just use the forks to get a cable or rope around mid way and setup a snatch block in the direction he wanted it to fall.

[@shade38211]

@@POLOLOUS3pulled many red oaks by using a snatch block and running rope back to a come along attached to the base of tree I am cutting. Usually like to attach to nearby tree, either let me tension as I cut. Even small notch on this tree would of helped.

Much respect for your honesty. Even showing your saw needing freeing after being stuck. You also get trees falling the wrong way. Great job.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

Oof. Good save, Andrew. Anytine you're taking down a tree close to a structure like that, wrap the trunk snugly with a log chain about 24" above the back cut. This keeps the trunk together and helps prevent it from "barber chairing" and hinging into the structure.

[@richardmattingly7000]

Hearing what a tree is doing when bringing it down is almost as important as doing it safely since it will let you know when it's going. It's almost talking to you and listening often lets you know when to move and leaving the saw behind at times is better when getting out of its way since it can get in the way of a quick exit. Nice to see Andrew taking the time to regrade the ground afterwards and Levi being along as always was a delight too.

Your third cut should be a little higher than the wedge cut. That will enable the tree to hinge and fall in the right direction. 👍🏼👍🏼

And the hinge should be 2-3 inches at most, and would have been good to put pressure on the tree before the third cut. Easy to be critical from the comfort of our desks, though
