Another picture of the #kobelco SK400MkIVLL mechanical inspection conducted earlier in the week. Cant help but love how the 400 size log loader makes the @tmarindustries 70 log grapple look kind of average size!! #tmarindustries #kobelconorthamerica #kobelcoforestry #grapple #tmargrapple #heeler #heelboom #logloader #hoechucker #shovellogger #forestryequipment #forestechequipment #forestry #loggingequipment #logging #bclogging #bcforestry #inspectionday #inspection #mechanicalinspection #vancouverislandlogging #vancouverislandforestry #westcoastlogging #westcoastloggers

Testing that the hydraulic cab tilt on this #Kobelco SK400MkIVLL hydraulic log loader functions properly during a mechanical inspection by one of our clients. The cab tilt is an important part of the log loader in that it needs to be able to fold down to get down to legal transport height. #cab #forestrycab #logloader #hoechucker #shovellogger #transportation #lowbed #forestry #bcforestry #bclogging #logging #vancouverislandlogging #vancouverislandforestry #westcoastlogging #westcoastloggers #transportation #lowbed #lowbedding

#madill 122 swing yarder with the boom, gantry and cab all taken off and loaded on to Coastal Truckings highboy. Now we are just waiting for the big bed to arrive and load out the remaining big heavy piece! #yarder #grappleyarder #forestechequipment #heavyhaul #transportation

#madill 122 swing #yarder with the boom laid down on the highboy trailer and gantry slowly being lowered and folded down on top of it. Boom and gantry pins came out nice and easy most likely from the recent boom rebuild, gantry repairs, line boring, new pins and bushings.

Just getting the #Madill 122 swing yarder lined up properly before lowering the boom onto the highboy. The boom is about 4 longer than the last time we did this with this machine so there might be a little more messing around. #swingyarder #grappleyarder

Yarding grapples loaded, lines pulled in and getting the #madill 122 swing #yarder into position to lower the boom and gantry on to the highboy. The big question is: Will the boom and gantry pins come out nice and easy or fight us every step of the way? #soldandsoontobeloaded
