Hydraulic Crane Install On Homemade 4x4 Timber Trailer - FM50T

- Installing FM50T hydraulic crane on my homemade 4x4 timber trailer. I sold the original FM35 crane and replaced it with this telescopic one to try the extra reach out that it'll provide. The install was fairly easy. The new joysticks have buttons on them for telescope and grapple. Before the grapple had to be operated via separate lever. Now all the controls are on two levers. The side supports are still operated via separate levers. Now the timber trailer is ready for hauling logs for my swingblade sawmill project once it's finished. Stay tuned!

Thanks for introducing to me a valve bank that uses joysticks with the same functionality as the forestry equipment that I have been operating for thirty years
You're welcome.
You definitely made the right decision upgrading to the telescopic boom. I've got one on my JCB 2CX and it makes thing so much easier. You won't have to reposition your trailer as often which would be a pain with it being hooked up to your UTV,. You've got a great setup there, amazing.
Looking Good Donn and works "PRETTY GOOD" which means FANTASTIC . I sure would have enjoyed owning one of those outfits back about 40 years ago when I was able to get around like you do. I sure did enjoy watching you build this one and all the other things you have built around there in the past several years. Keep up the great work and teach your son how to do what you can do around there. Stay safe and keep em coming. Fred.
Nice to see one of our British built JCB's. They were everywhere during the 90s then they weren't so popular. Donn is definitely getting his money's worth out of those insulated coveralls
Yes definitely need renewing before they get any worse, there is a seamstress just down the road from me who would make short work of that fix. All the best from England .
@@TheGrimReaper1 UK 🇬🇧 in the comments 👍 👌
No worries! 👍😀
Congrats - looking forward to see the saw mill in action
Those large feet on the outriggers are good for soft ground. Some good engineering there.
Excellent work 👍👍👍 . Thank you for sharing. Take care of yourself 🇨🇦
Very cool. It was nice getting to see the log trailer again. Its been a while.
There's more coming - have to haul logs for the sawmill and some firewood as well.👍
Hey Donn, that is awesome. What a great addition. As always super workmanship!
A super easy and accurate way to transfer hole locations (like you did for the controls) is to use tape. In this example, stick the tape to the controls, mark the holes, transfer the tape to the mounting surface and you're done! I try to avoid measuring any time I can. Keep up the great vids!
Great advice!
Now that's a cool toy!! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I love it when a plan comes together, and yours is definitely doing so! Keep up the great work and stay warm.
Cheers man!
Seems like an excellent upgrade great work as always!
Thank you.
That was quite an upgrade on the ”FORSTMAN” my crane has only 600mm axial extension off the boom and i think you have the double ❓
it is great powers working when the crane are @ its max well done see you in the next
Haven't measured the extension but the total reach is 5,1m compared to the pevious 3,5m. The leverage is also muvh greater indeed so I'll have to be careful when grabbing logs with the extension out.
@@DonnDIY Yes it is tricky liftning with the boom extended the crane are protected by the pressure relief valve ,
but not with an already uplifted load when you extend the boom 🤢5.1 meter are a great weight arm
You are amazing with your engineering and skill!
Much obliged!🙏
Nice! Those jaws are begging for Mr. Chop style graphics. Stay warm!
I agree!👍😀
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼………………………………………………………………………YES!! Getting the log trailer ready to go get some logs for the new SAWMILL!!! LOL It can only mean that the mill is almost ready.
The mill is not ready 😀 far from that. I'm struggling with the absence of space where to build the 8-7m truss beam. Have to think of something.
That will be a really nice upgrade for your trailer, looks like a super solid unit as well…thanks for the upload..:)
Thanks for watching!
I still can't quite believe that you talked Forstman out of one of their cranes! This is turning out to be an amazing rig and combo that you built! Thanks for bringing us along while you built it.
I bought the crane. 👍
@@DonnDIYyeah, I know. But they usually sell them together with their own load beds and trailers. I was surprised that they sold you one for your own self-built trailer. It's good advertising for them, though! They may end up with a little side business.
Great video!
I can imagine an amazing BBQ at your place, giant Jenga with beams made on the swing saw Mill and pulled or pushed out with the trailer crane!
😅🤙
Outstanding Donn.👍🏻👍🏻👏👌🏻
Definitely weld up a new snow suit after the sawmill. :)
hello from the Netherlands.
thanks for the video Donn.
Kind regards, Hollandduck
Great video
Awesome ,thank you for sharing and i learn a lot ,always a pleasure watch your project 👍👍👍👍
Thank you!🙏
Hello Donn good job well done
Thanks!
That’s badass. Since last commenting on another video of yours I have put my crane on my trailer. It’s pretty amazing to have the kind of capability I have now. It’s fun to operate also. I would like to add a grapple like yours to pick items up quickly. I bet it’s pretty amazing to have the kind of ability you now have with that. Keep up the good work!
It is amazing. Only downside is that I don't want to go back from this hydraulic crane anymore (if I had to). I've gotten used to having this lifting capacity pretty quick.😀
When it first seated on the pin my only thought was hearing you say: *"Like a glove!"* One of the best YT channels out there. God bless.
Btw, as an observation, did is seem as though the motor struggled when it was under heavy load? I'm only wondering how it will do with large logs.
Large logs ruclips.net/video/Z603FJaGQbY/видео.html
Nice job 👍
Thanks!
Nice 👍
Like a glove!😁
Congratulations on completing the log crane project. I always enjoy watching videos and look forward to new releases. All the best to you.
P.S. Winter is coming, have you thought of coming up with something wintery?
Thanks! The trailer was completed though - I just took off the FM35 crane and sold it and replaced it with this FM50T version. Something wintery... 🤔 I could think of something indeed.😀
Pretty good!
Cheers mate!🙏👍
I think it’s totally cool what you’re doing! You have incredible expertise!! My question: When do you pair the drive of the trailer?? 👍✌️
Once I need it.😀 The PTO dribe needs a clutch of some sort. I just haven't figured it out yet.👍
If the axle drive is identical in speed / revolution to the axle drive of the trailer, that would be easy.
I hope the translator brings my thoughts 💭 across in an understandable way. I only have limited command of the English language. 🤷♂️
@@DonnDIY some tractor implements have a clutch drive on the PTO shafts not sure how much friction they're designed to take but it's a compact clutch
Genial la mejora . 💪💪👍👍👍
Did you not grease the pin and the plate before you lowered it down? I appreciate that bit doesn't move but I wouldn't want it to rust together. Nice to see it come together though 😊
Super 👍👍👍
Is that base plate (for the crane arm) gonna be enough? I mean, even sandwiched like that, it seems to be a little thin for the size of arm this. Even if you only do light duty, that's a lot of leverage.
That said, that trailer is M I N T. Awesome piece of kit. Can't wait to see it in operation!!!
The base plate has been enough so far. The crane also sits on the pin and some of the forces are taken by that pin. We'll see how it performs on the job.👍
You'll be building a big carport\open barn soon to store all your machines
I should, yes.😬😀
Привет с РК молодец всем добра
Have you ever thought of building your own crane? That would be an awesome build
I did think of it before this build but opted to buy one instead since I had zero experience in hydraulics back then. Knowing what I know now I would definitely build the crane too.👍
And your builds are awesome. ! Keep up the great content
Nice upgrade, Donn!! 😃 I think that, like "My Mechanics" needed a new power button for his sandblasting cabinet, you need new coveralls! 🤣😂🥰😍🤩😉
(Now Donn will just pixelate the open seams from here on. 🤣)
The simpler 2 handle operation is nice but my experience with most hydraulic control buttons is that they are missing the ability for fine movement as they are on/off. This is unless they have proportional movement or they switch the function of the main handle so that the main handle can control the movement of the secondary function.
I agree. This has restriction valves on it so you can limit the amount of flow to the telescope and grapple and adjust the functionality this way.👍
Ein super Teil, aber kann es sein das der Motor von der Hydraulik etwas schwach ist wenn große Baumstämme daran hängen?
Upgrade!!!
Should be fun.
if I remember your PTO shaft on your UTV is a direct drive with the driveshaft ,, might need a clutch in the PTO shaft system so that you can move the trailer axle .. maybe install a clutch system on the trailer where you have more room then on the UTV ? , the new boom system looks great ..
Yup, you're right. Some from of PTO disengagement is definitely needed.👍
Nüüd metsa!
Jaa!👍
looks nice, wd.
me thinks you gonna need flow restrictions for the thinner cylinders and grapple rotator tho, as of now they work quite fast without load.
They actually have restrictors. I just let them flow freely until the air was out of the system.👍
You have a cool set up with your new crane. But I did notice the engine on your hydraulic pump seemed to bog down while doing certain functions under load.
It was bogging down due to the air in tve system. It started working better once it was aired out.👍
Yes it all looks very nice but what can it actually lift??? A 30cm trunk, or a 3cm branch??

Looks like some willing firm needs to give you a new winter overall...
Let's hope so. 🤣
I sure could have used that today milling 16' Norway Pine logs.
It is definitely a back saver. I don't know how I lived without it.🤣😛
I'm going to say it's time for a new boiler suit bud
🤘
👍👍👍
See näeb päris hea välja uue tõstukiga.
🤘🤠
Nice upgrade :)
When did you add a conveyor belt to the timber trailer? And what is it for?
The coveyor belt is not on the trailer, it's behind it. It was for my homemade wood processor.👍
@@DonnDIYAh, that makes sense.
Looking forward to see more of your content :)
Donn, was that a few snow flakes in the air at the end of the video?
Yes. 😀
Come on. This guy All pro. No way I can do this
Ants Pants sent me over. Now I am subscriber to 3 Estonian RUclipsrs including Flexiny. What's up with that?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!!!
Whats that conveyor belt on the trailer? Havent seen that earlier. 🤔
The conveyor is from my wood processor build.
Look good. 😊
But it looks like a small platform (maybe fold down) in front of the controls would help the ergonomics greatly. It looks like toy are twisting your back uncomfortably 🤔
This way you would be right in front of the controls, and higher up.
Could be better with platform indeed.👍
🤘
how about the pto driven wheels of the trailer? are you going to fix that. just curious
Yup, I will at some point. It works but needs adjustment.👍
Still waiting to see the PTO drive the trailer wheels.
That makes two of us. 🤣 I'll have to deal with it once I need it (in the winter).
Looks great but next step you'll need a stronger engine.
how much does the trailer weigh?
That a powerful trailer💯
Don't know. Too much I guess.😀
@@DonnDIY 🤣 Tanks for answer. Se you at next video🤗
👍
Sounds like your hydraulic pump is a bit small, bogging down without any weight on it
Вподобайка.
hay que verle con carga haber que tal responde
millal sa selle treileri veo probleemi lahendad? nii ta ei ole ju jätkusuutlik, käru läbib kurvis lühema vahemaa kui veduk aga ülekanne on sama?
Polegi probleem - lihtsalt tiisel vaja UTV külge fikseerida nii, et pööravaks punktiks treileri ja UTV vahel saab olema tiislikinnitus haagise küljes ja kogu moos.👍
why is the PTO still not hooked up?
Still needs tow bar modification. And it works even without the trailer drive at the moment so I've been lazy and not bothering with it.😬😅
Привет Дон!почему ты не подключаеш распредвал к прицепу,столько труда вложено в редуктора.что пошло не так?
Распредвал к прицепу???????? 😂
@@user-ol8vq1qo6n да,посмотри видео об этом прицепе,он полноприводный,должен через распредвал подключатся,но видимо что-то пошло не так,а жаль,столько труда в редуктора вложено
Is it the microphone or is that motor extra loud, I can hear it way over here in ME.........
PS. Good trailer build........
It is loud. 😀
The thing that makes me not build one myself is making it swing and be reliable and 360’ swing.
oh man already showing where you are? screw that. Glad I am in Georgia USA lol
It is snowing a bit.😬😛
Why is one screw missing underneath the crane at 0:58?
I don't know.🤷♂️😀
Vinge! Saab näha, palju mugavamaks läheb. Pakun, et kõvasti.
Mul ühel päeval tekkis mõte, et autolt kärule minevale ülekandele äkki saaks panna vahele automaatkasti siduri/"torque converter"i leevendamaks keeramisel tekkivaid pingeid kaotmata käru vedu täielikult.
Ma ei tea, kas see päris nii lihtne on, aga Garage54 pani siksile tavalise siduri asemele - ehk pole päris totter idee ja tasub kaalumist.(ma ei tea, kas see tagurpidi käigul toimiks - väga võimalik,et mitte)
Juba praegu (reaalselt testimata muidugi) tundub mugavam. Ma olen läbijooksusiduri peale mõelnud, aga seal olid pöörlemissuuna probleemid. Teine variant ka lihtsalt sidur teha, mis väikesel raadiusel pööramisel lahutatakse ja suuremal pöörderaadiusel uuesti rakendatakse. Aga see UTV kaalub nii palju, et veab niisamagi haagise metsast välja. Üritan tegeleda selle haagise veoga mingi hetk.👍
👏👏👏👍
Need more power to hydraulic. Maybe you need to do hydraulic pump on utv engine?
Yup, hydraulics on UTV would be great. But there's also another option.👍
@@DonnDIYborrow a power unit from the Make It Extreme channel. 😉
uhm... now you probably need a bigger engine for the oil pump? seems strained even with no load
It was struggling during the hydraulic system bleeding process. After the ait got out it started working smoothly.👍
I think you need a bigger engine for the hydraulic-station. 🙂
Yup, bigger engine for hydraulics would be great. Or hydraulic system on the UTV itself.👍
@@DonnDIY
Hydraulic system driven by the UTV engine maybe.?
That car engine should have enough power to drive that oil-pump for the crane and other stuff you gonna make in the future.. 😉
Im a huge fan of your channel, and im sitting here in Denmark and love to watch your videos. 🙂👍
You need more power for hydraulic system
Definitlely.👍
For plays yes.... for work no.....
