Haul Master Winch from Harbor Freight Tools

Picked up this portable 12 volt winch today hoping to have an easier time pulling some sections of a fallen tree up from a low and angled spot the tractor has trouble getting to.

Hope to get out in the morning and try it out.

Some "Before" pictures

Here are a few of the before pictures showing the thick vegetation and limited view through the trees.

Back in the woods again

Well I finally got back on the tractor and working on clearing the woods up. This lasted a couple afternoons until a alder tree attacked. I got hung up on the stump while pushing the tree over. The result was the suction line for the hydraulic pump being bent and ripped off coupling hoses along with 2.5 gallons of hydraulic fluid.

The best part was finding a new very reliable parts supply with excellent customer service. The Guys at Medina Tractor Sales have a great website with the Illustrated Parts book loaded and the best prices i have found. Check out their link.

I have just received my second order of all the water hoses and filters to get my 2006 CK20H 400 hr/2year services completed.

I hope to post some more pictures soon so you can start seeing the before and after look of the property.
