Post Puller
His post puller consists of a steel frame equipped with a metal basket and a moveable jaw that’s operated by a 2 by 8-in. hydraulic cylinder.
The operator clamps the jaw onto a post and then raises the post straight up with the loader. Once the post is out of the ground, a separate cylinder then rotates the post until it’s over a special-built, post-carrying basket.
