      @@CuttingEdgeLogging_Thomas Thomas, for some reason i no longer have a place to make a comment on so i wanna ask, 1 can you kill the blade if needed or do you have to shut it down to cut it off. 2nd off do you have a weight limit on the head before you have to drop your pile?

      I run what we call a stipper in the mill but its acctually rips the entire bark off the log before it goes down to see on the computers is to what can be made out of the log. I think our policy is 18''' at the butt end or its no accepted. I know your cutting pulp.

    Thank you for taking time to explain that for us. Have never heard anyone's explanations on thinning or tips like those you gave us on the track cutter. I run a trackhoe clearing mostly at work and I think I could get right in the cutter and wouldn't look too lost by what you took time to show us. Thank you

    I have never ran a track cutter. Im really wanting to try it though. I have many years on dozer and saws. Im usually skidding with a grapple cat or building road somewhere. Last year I spent 3months on dozer for Cal Fire here in Northern California. I love being on the fires its a rush for sure.

    Think about if you had a Quadco continuous rotation. Grab anything at any angle or degree. More on mountain leveling cutters though. Our LX830D and E we were able to change everything on it not only buttons but levers too along with the 632H we have.

      Exactly, we get wet muddy nastiness.....y’all sent a crew down here a few years back to show us southern guys “how to log”, they went out of business before the first winter was over because they couldn’t figure out how to work wet ground like we do.
