Seems like a lot of extra work to buck up a log, I’d like an easy way that avoids pinched bars and dirt but so far as I can tell that just means big money in fancy equipment, and I burn wood so as not to burn money :yep:

I dont skid out logs . I try to drop the trees on to some logs that I have already cut . That keeps them up off the ground and I can block them up without getting my saw in the dirt . If I cant get the truck to it we load the bucket on the tractor and haul it to the truck .

I just wrap a chain and drag to my cutting area, typically cut 95% through for however many fit the log and then roll it to finish the 5%, but I do need to repair my tractor, stick went up into the fan and removed every single blade :headache:

Well, the Kubuta dealer claims its a six hour tear down job, remove body, tilt engine etc, but my buddies on the internet assure me I can afrotech it in 3, 2, or maybe even 1 hour :crossed_fingers:

One guy claimed he ran his without unknowingly for years, so :man_shrugging: man_shr

They can do it in an hour and charge you for six is what they were saying. I looked at kabota when I bought my tractor but went with an LS . About 400 pounds more lift on the loader and looked like I could get to stuff better . It is on a larger frame than the others for the same hp.

Did consider that, I have a 12v outlet not far from it but I have too many other things on my plate for now to even plan a fix, I’ll just not drive it hard, its set over the hydraulic pump not radiator so if its not 90* and I’m not too hard on it I expect it will be ok for now
