Wyeth-Scott "More Power Puller" demo

My wife bought the Wyeth-Scott Company More Power Puller with Amsteel Blue® Rope, 3 ton edition for me for Christmas. I finally got a good day to test it out, and pull a very large forked pine log with it.

Thanks for the demo. I bought one today. Broke 4 of the Maasdams rope pullers, maybe this will last a while. The rope pullers are great, just a little delicate.

Rock on!

Excellent video!!!

[@richardcummins9513]

You need to anchor your puller to the tree with the fixed hook and release blue rope to pull your log. This will keep you out of the line of fire if your chain slips.

I guess it's pretty randomly asking but do anybody know a good website to watch new series online ?

[@kamdenreyansh1632]

@Lewis Judah Lately I have been using FlixZone. Just google for it :)

[@finleyduke1385]

@Lewis Judah I use Flixzone. You can find it by googling :)

[@deepbludude4697]

I bought one of these way back in like 1987 I use it all the time! im trying to source some spectra rope for it, but leary of all the "Chenna" copy's. That was nice of your misses , my ex would be me super usefull things like a $10,000 sofa that I was never allowed to sit cuz im always dirty and wet in SMH....

[@gedudeoo5]

Looks like you have it reversed . The rope goes to the load .

[@gregparrott]

Yes, the conventional approach is to place the winch at the anchor point. But, given the tree is not going anywhere if the cable were to break, I don't see any issue with attaching the winch to the moving object. Do you? This is no different than the winch mounted to the vehicle it is tasked with moving.

[@gregparrott]

@E Dogg36 I agree with what you're saying except for one possible rationale.
He has the winch rope rubbing against a sapling (8:40). While that's inadvisable, it's better than having it slide against it under tension, as would be the case were the winch placed at the stationary tree.

[@appalachianmountainman8126]

use your snatch block that is provided and it will move that log.

[@Butters333]

Is there anyone that I can ask some questions too about the project I'm doing? Dm or anything. I have a 4 ton puller and I need to pull a 30 ft tree with a 14-7 inch diameter. The tree is fallen with roots exposed. I need to pull it 90 degrees to cross a river. How would I go about hooking everything up? What rope or chain could I use that's long enough to cross the river to another tree. Help would be highly appreciated

[@jameskorn8398]

Your dueing it backwards.

[@verajavi12]

I bought one of these from eBay çhina brand,looks identical but it was only $ 130 for 3ton.

[@joebob7291]

harvey jackass it is not made with same quality though

[@DarkCavalry1228]

Enjoy whatever virus has been woven into your Chinese Knock Off.

[@jonbacon8924]

That’s a hella of a deal. I’m sure it’s right up to par with the American made.

[@joedimaggio3146]

@@jonbacon8924 lol

[@SainzPatrol]

it look's very good! ;)

[@JohnnySpathas]

Amsteel doesn't store energy- it doesn't whip.

[@geo_walters]

That's what drew me to get that over metal rope.

[@rednecktech70]

Your pulling backwards silly man
Your puller should be turned around

[@kenjohnson6603]

You need to do less talking and more doing

[@jonzimmerman427]

backwards

[@gunner49er]

Too much work much easier ways !

[@WoodCutr1]

for someone that cant get equipment to the load, there is really no easier way, but feel free to tell me one if im wrong

[@rednecktech70]

Um...... looks like maybe someone with some experience mite do do this video next time! Your using the “puller” backwoods! Quite unsafe

[@gregparrott]

I know the conventional approach is to place the winch at the anchor point. But, given the tree is not going anywhere if the cable were to break, why do you say it is unsafe to mount it to the moving object? This is no different than the winch mounted to the vehicle it is tasked with moving.

[@millibarman]

⁠​⁠@@gregparrottWell … not “no different than the winch mounted to the vehicle it is tasked with moving”
1. A winch is bolted to a truck’s frame
2. A mounted winch with a remote allows stand-off operation taking you out of the line of fire
3. This approach puts him right on top of the (poorly) attached chain
4. The whole point of the 35’ line is to give you lots of line to bring the item ‘to’ you, not back up with it
5. Why choose an anchor with stretch & wobble v. a rock solid (properly) secured chain?

[@jonbacon8924]

Flip it around so you’re not moving along side the puller. You should be stationary and the puller doesn’t move the rope pulls into the puller in a stationary position.

[@geo_walters]

I appreciate that. Will do!

[@bryanfeathers9897]

Dyneema will not snap back and hit you. If it breaks it will just drop so no need to pull around a corner like you described... You don't want your Amsteel rubbing on anything abrasive as it will break. Your breaking point in this pull would be where the strap connects to the tree and nylon does stretch and snap like a rubber band when it breaks. Running strap around tree with both eyes going to the Dyneema would be much safer and stronger.

[@geo_walters]

Thanks for this advice. Always good to have more brains working on the problem!

[@joeandsueoffgrid]

Great pullers!

[@geo_walters]

I think so too!

[@SainzPatrol]

whats the cost of one of these?

[@geo_walters]

about $300

George Walters Thank you
