  • Patent number: 4036378
    Abstract: The invention comprises an attachment for a pole skidder vehicle for hauling and stacking cut logs. The attachment is adapted to be mounted to the rear of a conventional pole skidder vehicle and has a pair of upright fixed arms. A pivotally mounted plate is pivotally mounted to the upper ends of the fixed arms and is hydraulically actuated. A separate length of cable is used to initially stack the cut logs thereon. A winch cable from the vehicle has a plurality of detachable connections at its other end whereby the winch cable may be placed across the top of the stack and connected to the outer ends of the separate length of cable to encircle the stack. A winch on the vehicle may then wind the winch cable to draw the stack up against the movable plate and the initial stack of cut logs may be hauled to a stacking location.
