Ladder I Mounted On Old Auger Elevator
To use my 20-ft. ladder to cut branches safely. I mounted it on an old auger elevator I had laying around. The ladder bolts to the steel boom. It can't get loose. Then I attached a winch to the auger's frame and ran a 1/4-in. steel cable from it to the boom. It easily pulls the ladder and boom up to different angles.

A telescoping safety pole runs from the boom in case the winch cable breaks. I hook the auger to the front of my ATV or pickup and push it around. It's real handy on the farm. (George Wofford, 735 Hills Cemetery Rd., Greenfield, Tenn. 38230 ph 731 235-2773)
