Our Gorilla arrived via
USF Holland Truck Lines.
Instead of a forklift, we used
a hay bale handler to unload.
Plastic straps can
be cut with a scissors.
The Gorilla was shipped
on a sturdy steel pallet.
The pallet's front bar is easily
unbolted from the pallet.
Point up headlights, release emergency brake,
and drive off on the first ride.
Sawmill slabs are cut up, piled on the Gorilla
and carried up a hill to the woodburning furnace.
Small logs can be shuttled
from forest to furnace.
Owner Dave Brown tries out
his new J-Mar trailer.
Test pilot Ted Renkas enjoys
the smooth and quiet ride.
Trailer is from Ja-Mar Mfg, 228 N Interstate Dr
Sikeston, Mo 63801 (800)992-0634
Gorilla marches right up the hill
