The trailer hitch mount changes everything for my log skidding setup as the Lewis chainsaw winch gets even better with this stable platform hitch. On today's episode I'll introduce you to a new tool that I've been using which is an accessory for the Lewis winch 400 mk2. The trailer hitch mount with it's 2" steel tube fits into any 2" receiver and provides a solid mounting point for the lewis chainsaw winch to sit on. As you'll see in this video, the solid platform allows the winch to move slightly side to side which gives me some control over the positioning of the steel cable as it spools onto the winch drum. As a result of this, the steel cable gets wound on tight and in perfect placement preventing any kinks or bends. On today's episode you'll see me using the Lewis Chainsaw winch to skid out a log that wouldn't normally be easily accessed. This is the type of situation that I often use this portable chainsaw winch in to help me retrieve trees that I can then make into lumber on my portable sawmill. Glad you fine folks are here and let's get down to it.
