There is a really good vid I saw a while back on youtube (can't find it now) about digging out the roots first with the backhoe then cutting them off with a chain saw then pulling the trunk out. This was done on really big trees with a BX. Look around on you tube and you can likely find it...

We've got two Cat's and an MTU diesel at work and they all require a 5 minute cool down before shutting off. Not quite the same thing, these are big diesels but same deal on the turbo, they get really hot running under load, best to let them cool gently, they are quite expensive to fix. Bill H.

Looked it up, tongue weight limit is 200 lbs. on that car, as is often the case with cars and SUV's that puts a big limit on what you can safely tow. You'd only have 5% tongue weight at 4k, not enough. Bill H.

Definitely wear hearing protection, these things are loud and will destroy your hearing. I spent a whole career around loud machinery, now wish I'd have paid better attention to protecting my hearing. Do it now before you lose it. Bill H.

Nice bike, used to be able to ride them things, now if I got into that riding position I'd need help to get back off. It's just the Harley for me now. Bill H.

Also need a strap on the FEL.

You can jumper out the safety switch (not advised) and it'll work, you can't though just remove it. Have to complete the circuit.
