    That is 1 heck of a operation. I don’t think I will ever gripe about how high lumber is any more.

    At pixelle instead of pulling under a crane there are loaders for softwood and hard wood most can unload 1 bunk at once and 1 can unload 1/2 of a bunk at once

    That was cool when are family was in logging we was strictly sawn logs i enjoy watching those big red oak tree hit the ground and when it was time i would set the chokers on the trees and that was some hard work

    The cable reel that supplies AC power to the crane is a flexible high voltage cable. The one at our mill is 2400V, some are 4160 V. There are brushes and slip rings in the reel to pass power and it goes up the leg to the gantry MCC to a transformer to get it to 480 for the variable frequency drives. These cranes are one of the fastest ways to unload and maximize wood storage but are a real pain to maintain! It’s 140 steps to the top so you better bring the parts and tools you need! The Mack grapple has the hydraulic pump and controls built into it. I think it was a 50 hp motor. Cool video and it’s always good to hear a Cat truck engine working!

      It's where u pull into there to unbind the the load and if any wood falls off it will catch it but the ones at our mills beat the crap out of our trucks they break antennas hit the mirrors scratch the paint on the trucks

      Unbinding racks, keeps the logs from hitting the driver if they roll off the truck.

    Potential Reverser alarm for the 718. Heavy duty used on construction machines. Multi frequency rather than the plain beep. brigade-electronics.com/en-us/products/reversing-and-warning-alarms/ portland, indiana or do only the beepers have forest machine use approval?
