Limb, Section, and Load Brush into Dump Truck

Day1: Taking out a farm site | Cutting & Pushing over trees, grubbing stumps & Demolition
What happens here
After large trees are felled, workers use chainsaws to limb branches and cut the main trunks into manageable sections. This limbing and sectioning process helps sort the material. The smaller, leafy branches are separated from the larger logs. The skid steer then collects the smaller branches and piles them onto the back of a dump truck, ensuring not to load over the cab for safety. This strategy ensures that the lighter brush forms the base of the load, allowing heavier logs to be placed on top to compress it and prevent material from blowing out during transport.
Goal: Process felled trees into manageable sections and load brush into a dump truck for disposal.
