@@fazeobama8872 That's just like me selling you a 400,000 dollar house and telling you your kids can't live in it. Let me break this down for you since I am one who actually does this for a living and has for 30 years... If you bought one of these machines, say a 620 skidder you are looking at an 8,000 dollar per month payment for 4 years if you can pay 10% down. Then to run an operation to support a payment like this you need to get more payments. You will at minimum need a dozer, loader, cutter, and at least 3 trucks and multiple trailers. Then you have payroll, workers comp which is stupid expensive for logging, fuel, maintenance, and the list goes on. Then you need to work this stuff about 60 hours a week, fighting markets and weather and big companies that control your pay, and good workers which are impossible these days. I have nothing against Tigercat personally, I even have a new Deere skidder that has been giving some minor trouble lately and it had me considering Tigercat. But this right here is a slap in the face to anyone like me who might buy one of their machines that works in the mountains like I do. I can't ask permission to use approved chains which will probably be denied, I would be out of business. I run chains on my skidders 90% of the time due to my terrain here. I suppose this policy would not bother flatlanders much but it is crippling here. I recently asked the owner of W and W Tractor in SC which skidder was the best JD or Tigercat? And if anyone should know he should. He probably handles the most logging equipment in the entire southeast. He stated that a couple years ago that he would have said that Tigercat was better until they started trying to build their own rear ends and stopped using John Deere rear ends. I think that statement right there explains this video perfectly. Tigercat needs to correct their shortcomings and not take it out on their customers. As a consumer of this stupid expensive logging equipment I hope they read this.
Why will water in tires overload the axle? The wheels are already on the ground?
Extra weight
Centrifugal forces. Just think of the weight of the water, the multiply by the centrifugal forceof the tire rotating when driving
This video just reaffirms my commitment to stick with Deere. They don't tell me what to do with a 400,000 dollar machine.
hey man you are free to toss chains on your tires that rip them up but i think this is pretty good customer service right here
Sait juste parce que john deer s’en fou sintu brise ta machine ! Il vont te vendre des pieces ! Tigercat veux le mieux pour leur client
