I grew up next to a Timberjack dealership back in the 70's, I can still here them unloading on a Friday night when I close my eyes. Thanks for bringing me back 👍

Timberjack wrote the book on log skidders. Awesome!!

best desinged skidder ever built , well thought out & ONE STEP INTO THE CAB BRILLANT !

A day without 2 stroke smoke and a screechin' Detroit is a day wasted. I miss it.

Ich habe noch einen 207 aus 1972. Super Maschinen nicht kaputt zu kriegen..

Great video, brings me back a few years with my Pop who had quite a few Timberjack skidders which I later ran for him. We lost him a month ago and I thank you for bringing the memories back to me. Stay safe my friend.

I can’t get over how nice that machine is. I’ve never seen a TJ that nice and strait. Not sure why but they always seem beat to a pulp, maybe cause they’re on the cheaper end to purchase they get in the wrong hands. That machine is crisp!

It's good to see a good old-fashioned hand crew still cutten for a living and from Maine is even better , I live in Maine and drive truck I haul a lowbed for a living. Keep up the video's love watching them.

Nice machine I run a 208 jack in Plymouth Maine, best little skidders around

I was a skider operator for a few years when I was young. A lot of time on the 225, and the 230, spent most of the time on the 550, they were New then, and THE hot ticket. Make no mistake however the 225 is the machine that put timberjack in front, very nimble and strong, it could really "get the wood out"! Bluffs and hills were normal. The company I worked for logged everything from export to chip timber. Depending on which crew you were assigned to, every one loved the 225, If you turn to tightly with a big skid any machine can turn on its side! Once at a 90 degree turn I dropped the skid to make the turn, before I started down the bluff, however the winch didn't release. I was turning and jacking the winch, trying to release it. The machine turned over as the winch released! AND free spooled.puking cable like a junk fishing reel the skider rolled slowly at first, but it gained a lot more vigor as it rolled over and over. It stopped rolling at the bottom with it's tires in the air! The battery box lid popped up, and covered me with acid, mostly my pants, my cutter showed up hysterical and insisted I was Dead! I realized I was soaked in acid, and moved swiftly to the stream! (My pants,and most of my shirt didn't make it)! Every one insisted I must be hurt,or in shock. I was fine. They pulled the skider out, and happily told me the cable was wrapped around the machine 7 times! If the machine had broken up, it would have been bad for me. But it didn't!!! The machine was soon back in service. And the damn winch fixed!!!

Screamin' jack. Throttle to the floor only way to run em. Hearing protection a must lol. Hope the market picks up. Thanks for the tutorial.

You can't beat the TJ's bud. I've had them for year's. No issues 😊. Keep logging maine 👍

Those detroits are loud! I'm rebuilding a 360 timberjack now, hopefully get it out this winter. I've got the videos of my rebuild going up as it goes, thought about using a detroit, but came across a 6bt cummins

drove 1 just like this 1 for the first time the other day..!! that's the most fun u could ever have 4wheelin.... rock crawler and then some 📈

Sappi shut hardwood down this week pretty much. Hardwood logs are going no problem. Yay for mat logs lol. The way things are going a chipper is sounding better every day lol. Great content bud. Love your videos!! Good luck stay safe!! Fix that door 🙂

You can hear those Detroits all the way in the next county!

Looks like a solid running Timberjack! I picked up an early 70’s 207D for our woodlot in Mercer. I thought the winch needed some work until I realized how to properly run the hi/neutral(winch)/low

That hemlock looks pretty good in my yard Scott, the bull calfs are coming soon so we need to get busy but will be back in touch soon, thanks again. Joe

It’s like using a skidder in fs19 but I. Real life, love the video 🇦🇺👍

Grate job older machines a lot more reliable not so big do less damage in the woods grate job.

Yeah logged all my life till I was sixty dual stroke at 60 took my ability to log away love of my life I miss

Our pulp markets here in Wisconsin. R tough to, its good that winter is coming, so that will help the hardwood pulp/firewood and the softwood aspen pulp/bedding market. Your skidder is a lot different than our old 640 John Deere.

Sweet sound to my ears! Wow you take a big skid out . I love cutting Hemlock . Thanks for sharing

I like how you have to rev that Detroit to unlock its potential. I think older Clark Rangers used to use them as well.

Thanks for a great video!

Love that detroit sound

Been enjoying your channel, not seeing anything recent? Hope all is okay with you & family. Thanks, and take care...

I love the sound of a Detroit keep up the good work

nice little jack.

Such a beautiful sound !

Try Nash equipment in Coldbrook, NH they may have that exhaust rain shield, they're pretty good folks I bought a Clark 664D there about 15 years ago.

great little skidder i got one at the shop gotta git er running !

A 225D is a 208D with bigger heavy duty planetary axles. Nice tractor!

Schaffer skidder parts out of Illinois has almost anything ull ever need and they get parts to u super quick

I like the way it sounds real throaty great video

It reminds me of the song, it's kind of a drag by The Buckinghams

Hope you don't have issues with your winch, I just rebuilt one for a customer and let me tell ya what a headache. TimberJack doesn't like giving out any info on their equipment so you have to go to a dealer for all your needs. Keep the winch oil topped off and DON'T over grease it, that will make your clutchpack slip and free spool on ya.

Love the vids man hopefully some more content soon!

I love your channel and I find it very interesting keep up the good work 👍👍👍

When are you going to post another video

Sounds good but I think I like the roof mount on my Clark better- quieter. Must be I’m getting old!

That pure sound 😍

What size exhaust iron that 2.5 inch? thanks! Great vid.

Timberjack sounds good. 353 Detroit? Looks to be in great shape

Nice Drag! Detroit Engine no dout!!

I would highly recommend but if in a power battery shut off in if you don’t have one already because my dad’s caught got a fire and burned out the center section it was a short in the battery cables

Need a door ... and some mesh around cage brother ! Trust me been there usually happens when backing up

Buxton Maine here

Hope you guys are doing well haven’t seen or heard much from you

Logged with a 1972 225 in the 80s they also had a new 540b JD I preferred the screaming Jimmy that's why I can't hear now though young and dumb didn't wear ear plugs

So where is McCormick now?

Good video. Great machine. Is a 230d 76 mod the same.

Congratulations on 3k subscribers

Stupid question. How do you start it? Starting fluid? What size batteries are needed.

I took a beech branch upside my head. So a door is a good idea. Or take the chains off.

Hey buddy blessings, do these come with more horse power? Really interested in one of these.. all the way from BELIZE CA

My treefarmer around like crap with the muffler on it also and it smoked like crazy

These Timberjacks are still to loud, isn't there such a thing as quiet diesel. I think I still prefer the old JD with steering wheel that lever steering just dont seem right to me, I think JD's are quieter to but more tippy. That was an awesome hemlock pull. Your tutorial on the Timberjack was excellent, I really enjoyed that thanks for sharing, and I'm in ME to so hey neighbor, and if you have cedar let me know.....

Congratulations on 2k subscribers. 😁

That ain’t nothin but half ah twitch 😁

Great video. I really need one of those EX pipes on my 230. Cost quite a bit? Someone has put a auto type muffler on mine with some flex pipe and I worry rain with get in thru the flex.

Where is this. ..?

It’s been a while did you just give up on YOU TUBE? Hope your doing well

Does anybody know why he stopped posting videos?

do you think you could do a video talking about how you got started logging/ learned the business? i'm in about the same situation you were in, im 24 and ive been working in welding shops since i was 18 and really not happy doing it anymore

Nice looking jack never been a fan of em but that's a straight looking rig what part of Maine u working in I'm from Harmony

And I think I might have a rain guard , idk if it’s all beat to shit or not I’ll look

Where about in Maine your at I,m in sainclair

Just subscribed. Cool videos.

I love listening to green leakers from afar but can’t stand them when they’re up close.

When you say "pulp", what does that mean not being in that industry? Thanks

Its been a long time you didint post a video!!!!

When are we going to see some more logging videos?

Great video! Does your skidder run with asbestos lined brakes?

Are you able to move much hard wood with jay shut down?

How in the world can you handle the noise all day?

She is a screamer for sure... Put some door guards on it. I had a friend who was hurt pretty bad when a limb came up between the floor plate and cage on a Clark and into his leg.

What engine is in that???

Hey when you guys post a new video

What is pulp?

What happened to the videos?

Injector cleaner at idol!

Salut de France. Inusable ses machine

Anyone know where I can find information on the emergency brake mod? I have the same skidder, pre lawsuit and want to put on an emergency brake but kinda haven't a clue how to go about it.

Do the Hemlock Trees Have a disease up in Maine I was just wondering because they do in Pennsylvania

Yes you do need doors I so what can happen without doors it's not good

Are you all done with KZfaq?

When’s a new video

Exhaust will hurt 🤕

That’s one of the crispest Jacks I’ve ever seen. For some reason it’s hard to find those in good original condition..

If you want an original style rain guard message me. I have to build on for my 240 I am restoring and I will make 2. Your a fellow Maine guy so I can get it to you for cheap :)

Screaming Detroit if it ain’t leaking oil it doesn’t have any it 😂😂 my dad had a 79 230 and replaced it with a Cummings a lot more power and runs a lot more quieter lost the motor in the Detroit several times and gave up

did you give up on youtube or what?

How old r you

Sorry to painfull to listen to you thrashing that poor old engine.
