[bobcat ron]

How do you fill the fuel tank on that?

 

[Rockbreaker]

Very good question Ron...

But do i got an answer for you?? No way
They could use a helicopter, but that would be expensive and hard to fill it up in the wind under the copper and then the operater would be starting to :cussing so nothing get done and that aint good.
So there you are,i do not know:Banghead:Banghead

 

[bobcat ron]

I got it!

Pay the green horn to jerry can the fuel for the day!

 

[Rockbreaker]

Thats it Ron.

Will keep him working hard for some time!

And i found one more of an old akerman from my neighbor country

 

[Rockbreaker]

Yea its me again

Found some more wood machines so i share them with you too:drinkup

 

[bobcat ron]

It must be a very odd feeling to be that high and far out on that Liebherr.

 

[Rockbreaker]

Think you learn to be smooth on the movements pretty quick.
Or else you get sea sick i would imagine very fast:throwup

How do you fill the fuel tank on that?

I know, I know. To fill that thing up with fuel the person would need a very LONG, LONG hose.:usa Damn Americans they think they know it all don't they.

Never been so lucky so that i could have workwed in forestry but it looks to be a great workplace.
Here is some pics i found from forestry in Norway:beerchug

I ran a Timberjack harvester just like the one in the picture you have there about 6 years ago. It had a really roomy cab and had "palm style" joysticks with "finger key-pads attached to each stick. I found it took me longer to learn and had more hand cramping than "SURE-GRIPS" or regular jotsticks.
Machine was nice to run but I still prefer a track machine for harvesting or processing. Looking at some more recent pics of inside the cabs of these newer machines I really miss Logging.Best job ever in my opinion.(even better than grading!)

Hello Roadrunner.

Why did you stop working in forestry?
Bad pay,long hours,lonely work had anything to do with it?

Or did you just found a more interesting job?

I never get tired of watching that machine at work.........on the close up of the operator in the cab though he seemed to be getting a lot of "cab slap" .......:badidea

 

[Rockbreaker]

Woow, what a great video:notworthy

Seems to be a great place to work just keeping a good pace and everybody`s happy

 

[Per Eriksson]

How do you fill the fuel tank on that?

They have big tank on one of the legs that the fueltruck fills up and then the operator hooks up a short hose from the serviceplatform up to the machines fuel tank.

They build them not far from me and our CATdealer do the adjustments and checks on them before delivery, did a couple of them last year.

It makes for a long day walking the stairs up and down with tools and stuff.

I just love that John Deere 1270D -05 with 754 harvesterhead. What a cool machine. It just slices and dices right through the forest. Amazing how it strips off the branches, just pull out the logs and set all the waste on fire. How awesome is that, man?
