Working up the land after a huge fire...start to finish you'll love this!
What happens here
The operator uses the Gehl RT210 skid steer, equipped with the Raptor Attachments grapple, to actively break apart the large, still-smoldering brush pile. This involves pushing, grabbing, and spreading the logs, stumps, and ash. The grapple's robust construction and raker tines allow it to efficiently separate the woody debris from the dirt, consolidating unburnt material into the core of the fire for more complete combustion, and starting the process of distributing the dirt and ash.
Goal: Break apart the burn pile, separate debris, and initiate spreading
