Another great time was had and no one got injured. Your truck got swiped with a branch but hopefully no harm was done. Your tree cutting man was on top of it. Like his approach of talking it out so the other gentleman could know what his plan was and how it would happen. Wish I lived closer and could have brought my 2038R 0ver to help..

Tim, I need that crew here at Sassafras Valley! I have 10 acres of mature Red Oak that is aging out on me. There are hundreds of opportunities for them to practice dead falling and clean-up on.

This really sums up why I purchased a smaller B2601 tractor for working in the woods and around the farm. My "dead ash" didn't want to do it by hand. I'm 57 and that Kubota was cheaper than a hospital stay, you start looking at things differently with age. You guys did wanders for that place. This is what's missing from a lot of the country, people coming together to help someone with nothing in return. The returns will be eternal because God will see to that.

When I was a Scout, years ago, the bowline on a bite was the most improperly tied knot during competitions. Usually, they used the knot as a harness that someone had to use to pull a weight. An improperly tied bowline on a bite will cinch up on the shoulders of the puller. A bad knot revealed itself quickly.

I never was in the Boy Scouts, my older brother was. When I started using ropes in tree work I carried a piece of rope in my pocket for 2 years! I tied all the knots I wanted to learn many times per day. It drove my family crazy. I remember in our church child care area I was teaching the kids how to tie knots. Parents showed up to get their kids, “what did you learn about Jesus today?” Kids, “Danny showed us knots today!” Lol!

Great team work. Loved the rope lessons. It always amazes me what can be done by just talking out the task as your doing it. I watched the tree climbers several years ago at GIE. They were amazing. I enjoyed how he knew the proper use of his tools (ropes), and kept himself on the ground. That kept him and all the others safe. And he was always teaching his helpers. And all the tractors were fun to watch.

[@rogerr1296]

Got notification yesterday that my grapple ready!! yea! But, shipping is so backed up, its still 1-2 weeks out, boo! lol On a serious note and maybe you have already done but it would be great to have a little bit of "best practices/how to's I have found" with the grapple. Even just a short "I have found this is the best way to grab bigger logs", "... this is the best way to go into and grab small pieces or limbs..." while you are working.

Was wondering what the minimum working load rating of a rope would be needed to accomplish helping the tree with the 1025R like Danny did? I have a couple dying ash to do that way and the highest working load rope I can find at hardware stores or Box stores is ~300 lbs. Is that enough? Don't want to get the tree cut and then have the rope break and take out the neighbor's fence.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

The 1025r can pull about 2000lb (at least I saw that in a ‘dead pull’ test I did).

@@TractorTimewithTim Oh I see what you're saying now! :-) I wasn't picking up what you were laying down. LOL! Thanks!

[@dannydisalvo9664]

The rope used in the video was a 6,000 lbs minimum break strength rope. So work load limit is a different topic. Sort of. I try not to exceed 40% of MBS. Arborist gear and climbing gear is usually listed as MBS not WLL. I try to make sure every piece of gear in the chain is rated above what I think is needed for the job. Also in tree work there is static weight and dynamic forces. For example 500 lbs of log can be lifted or pulled with a 1000 lbs break strength rope. If you use that same rope to “catch” that same log falling 4’, the dynamic weight goes to 10,000 lbs! That means broken rope, and a bad day. Be safe out there. :-)

[@johngrossbohlin7582]

Yeah... embedded metal is never fun. I mostly cut trees on former dairy farm property (all defunct since the 1950s) and former rail road property (now rail trails) and I "find" metal regularly. Mostly it's fencing but sometimes nails, gate hardware, and once a door hinge! The worst case was a J-hook... it seems that a guidewire for a large TV antenna mast was attached to the tree some 50 years prior! That broke teeth right off the chain. Generally I can file damaged chains back to life but it sure does take life out of them. Cleaning out the fire place is interesting as nails, barbed wire, razor wire (??), and other bits of metal are often found. I run a magnet through the ashes before throwing the ashes in my garden compost pile. I always wear a full compliment of PPE. In addition to the usual tree work risks of falling branches, kick backs, trips and falls, etc. having chain teeth spit out at you is not a good thing!

Good evening Tim. Quick question. I tried google but not really getting any info. My 1025r overheats really quickly. 20-30 minutes of rotary tiller maybe 2 foot grass and it’s in the red. I’ve checked and topped off the coolant, changed the oil for the first time (after 60 hours and over a year of very light use), and made sure the radiator wasn’t cluttered. I had the issue when I first got the tractor but it seemed to only happen in super tall grass. Now it’s any grass after only 20 minutes. Any ideas? It’s under warranty but the warranty seems to cover nothing other than engine failure and even that I’m betting they could wiggle out of.
