GK Digger before the digging season starts (before it gets really dirty). This is one of 7 diggers - three are newer GK diggers as shown. |
The diggers straddle the trees with the undercutting blade and shaker at the rear. |
Shaker lays trees on the ground free of heavy dirt (at least on dry days). Assistant makes sure trees fall one direction toward the empty row allowing digger to dig next row. |
