Sometimes it ain't worth it!

Ground through some real hard Ice/Snow piles to get back in the wood. Cut some Ironwood for firewood and to give some young White Pine some added sunlight.
Ya, can cut for a long time and dull a chain without getting a big pile of IronWood. They are about 6 inches across on the stump and tapers quickly with lots of limbs.
Any place people had walked much or I had driven with the tractor you just had to let the chains eat through the hard stuff. Yup theres fluid in the tires.

Sorry the photo did not work. First time that has happened in awhile.
Suppose I should find some instructions somewhere.

Thanks, Ed n Northern VA.
I did not do well!
First two times it did not work and the third time it did.

Ed,

That looks like a Farmi logging winch on the back of the tractor. I have wished for one for many years. Can you post some pictures of the winch? And tell us more about how it works for you. Does the 8N have enough "stuff" to operate that winch adequately?

Questioning minds....looking for answers.

Thanks for whatever you can tell or show us.
