What happens here

After a tree has been successfully felled and is lying on the ground, use a heavy-duty chain to securely attach one end of the log to the bucket or a dedicated hitch on the Caterpillar skid steer. The video clearly shows the process of attaching a chain to the log. Once the log is firmly secured, carefully maneuver the skid steer to drag the log away from the felling area and towards a designated collection or processing zone. It is imperative to ensure that the dragging path is clear of any personnel or obstacles to prevent the log from getting snagged, swinging unpredictably, or causing damage to other objects or trees.

Goal: Transport felled logs safely from the clearing site.
