The pipe acts like the slip hook. The small grab hook can go thru the pipe. The big regular hook can not. The pipe slides on the chain over the small grab hook, the grab hook goes around the brush / tree that I want to pull out, then the grab hook gets hooked on to the slot in the pipe. The...

Not sure what you mean by a " slip hook" ..? The small hook, hooks onto the slot in the pipe, the other hook , hooks onto the strap or bucket. If i made it over, i'd use a longer length of chain. but this chain is what i had in the garage, its enough, but on some of the larger brush/...

BX 25...... This past weekend, i pulled out a 4-5" tree stump with it. I cut the tree off at about 36" high, and hooked up the grubber just below the cut, had it hooked to the drawbar, pulled it to the left to get it loose, then pulled it out going to the right. The bucket i use it one only...

From a older topic on here, a you tube video, and some google searches..... I made this brush puller / brush grubber. It works pretty good..! The pipe is what really grabs the trees. Stops it from slipping off. The only way I thing someone could improve on this, it to grind / cut teeth into...

Its more about rotating mass. If you have one blade thicker / heavier then the other one, the unit will have a vibration, it may not be noticeable on the tractor, but eventually it'll wear out the seals and possible gear damage in the gear box. and.... 85 hokie..... with the proper scale, you...

What is a good over the counter weed killer..? I'm in Western NY, and it just seems like the stuff from Home Depot / Wal Mart ( Round up in the jug, Orthro, Wal Mart brand .....etc... ) just doesn't work that good. I'm thinking about buying a container of RM 43 ( Tractor Supply ) but Seeing...

. I was thinking about replacing the bolts.

Manual...???.... what manual..? This brush hog is probably 25 yrs old..... maybe older. And... I don't think those bolts will loosen up in the condition they are in.

I added one to my Woods loader. The original bottom cutting edge on the bucket wasn't the straightest so it took a little bit of pounding, grinding, clamping & pushing to get it on, and to get the edge to fit into the tooth bar tabs. With a little help from the pine tree, got it to fit...

See pictures. Brush Hog 5' / 60" rotary cutter with the top chain from back to the 3 pt arm. Dad was using the brush hog some years ago, lifted it up, ( i don't know how he had the top link set ) the bolts on the slip clutch caught the chain and bent the bolts. ( and with his old Jimna china...

What's your preference..? For those that buy used equipment and other things, do you prefer to go to farm auctions / estate auctions..? Or... do you look on Market Place or Craig's List for the item for sale.? I do like auctions, you can get some good buy's, but I'm limited to the auctions...
