[QUOTE="mark18mwm, post: 85990, member: 9306"] My neighbor has a electric winch mounted on top of his skid steer ROPS. I see him using it to pull logs to the skid steer then he hauls them out with his forks. It looks like it works ok, I never watched to close or asked him, him and I don't get along so great and I just avoid him so I can't ask him anything about it's operation. I use my 600 as a skidder with 2 chokers on the back, but to pull whole trees like that but I have to cut a couple logs to put on the forks to keep the front end down. I would like a winch on mine also as you say you can't drive to all the trees/ logs and it can be a pain to get them. I like your idea with a hyd winch, my 600 don't have enough hydraulics for that. I only skid with mine in the winter, the trees skid easier on the snow. [/QUOTE]
