How much force to pull out a 4 inch dia beech tree ???
I cannot quite see, but how do you attach the Tirfor winch to the
stump ?? I have a short length of chain with a shackle on both ends. One shackle attaches to the winch cable, I loop the chain back through the other to form a noose that goes around the stump. As I winch the noose tightens, picking a spot on the stump just before a branch helps, but my chain will grip a straight stump most of the time. On a couple of really tough straight ones I had to whack in a few big nails to give the chain something to grip. Bye the way, try to use a webbing strop around the tree you are anchoring the winch to, it saves a lot of damage to the tree. Also don't allow anyone to stand near the winch cable, with all the force built up it can fly off quite violently when the chain slips. Mike |
