Anyway went over there and it was a bundle of 2x6x16's that was a full bundle that was still wraped from when it arrived to the lumberyard. Thinking that I could maybe lift it enough for him to pull the trailer out from underneath and than move it where he wanted it. We both got a big surprise when I couldn't even budge it. So was just wondering if anyone had an idea on what a bundle of lumber like that would weigh. (Have lifted several pallets of seed that would be close to 3000 lbs or a little more.) Thanks Les
Were you using a JD 3010 ? Or a late model JD 8430 ? What forklift ? What model ? What size cylinder ? I could ask more, buy you should get the idea. |
