Choosing a log and derris loader

摘要

To call the "log loaders" used in tree care by that name is a bit of a misnomer, unless, of course, you're also in the logging business. Certainly, some pieces of loading equipment are meant to be dedicated to loading logs, and they are typically found in forestry and land clearing where the intent is to take large logs and load them into trailers or onto truck bodies or barges to be carted away and turned into lumber or paper pulp. And with the growing market for biomass, there may be a move back in that direction. But for most tree care businesses, the definition needs to be refined, and the loader needs to be re-scaled.
