It includes practical warnings about not applying side stress to loaders, judging when a tree will give, and working roots loose gradually. Best for owners doing land-clearing with a loader.

Yes, the owner was impressed it could push down a good-sized tree by the roots, something he had only done with small trees before.
He damaged the hydraulic cylinder by using the grapple to grab and pull on something rather than push, which it is not meant to do.
