A system for pulling posts is disclosed. The system for pulling posts comprises a mast extending along a direction having a vertical component, an elongated arm rotatably and pivotably supported by the mast and extending at an angle relative to the mast, a pusher with first and second opposite ends, the first end of the pusher being configured to support the elongated arm at a first location of the elongated arm, and the second end of the pusher being configured to contact a ground surface, the pusher being configured to increase in length to drive the first location of the elongated arm away from a ground surface and thereby change the angle relative to the mast, and a pole attachment site at a second location of the elongated arm.

A fence post removal tool may include first and second arms, each of the arms having a handle and a working portion. At least one coupling member is pivotally coupled to each of the working portions. An opening defined by engagement surfaces provided in opposing faces of each of the working portions is provided and is configured to engage the surface of a fence post when in use.

A cable barrier separator apparatus for separating cables from the barrier support so that the barrier support can be replaced. The cable barrier separator apparatus includes an actuator assembly; and an engagement assembly in communication with the actuator assembly for separating cables from support devices.

Devices and methods for extracting objects from substrates are disclosed. One embodiment has a first end with a tapered handle and a second end with a dowel. The dowel can be a steel dowel and include a beveled edge enabling engagement with a hole in an object. Another embodiment can include an intermediate portion connected to and located between the first and second ends. The device can be manually inserted into a hole in a stake. Once engaged with the stake, a user can apply torque in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction several times to loosen the stake from the substrate. When loosened from the substrate, a user can apply a pulling force away from the substrate to remove the stake.

A chain and lever post puller system for pulling 2 inch by 4 inch stakes from the ground. The apparatus may also pull round posts or tee-posts with a minimum of effort and with no prior digging. The chain and lever post puller system is a first class lever, requires no heavy equipment or hydraulics, and is easily transportable by hand. The puller comprises a vertical column to which the pivot lever is removably connected via a hinge, which also forms the fulcrum for the pivot lever. A first end of a chain is attached opposite the handle to the end of the pivot lever, and a self-tightening post grip is attached to the second end of the chain. A downward force is applied to the proximate end of the pivot lever when the post grip is attached to a stake to remove the stake via mechanical advantage.

A fencing device 1 comprises installing means for driving the posts 5 of the fence into the ground. These posts are provided with a pointed lower end 9 so that they can easily be driven into the ground. The net with the posts attached thereto is wound on a reel 11. The installing means gradually guide the posts from the reel to the ground, while the lower ends of the posts are driven into the ground. For guiding the posts, the installing means are formed by a guide consisting of a top guide profile 13, two side guide profiles 15 and a bottom guide profile 17. When a temporary fence is erected, the first post is to be driven into the ground manually and supported with a cable or pole. Subsequently, the fence will be unwound from the reel while the trailer is moved on.

The present invention provides a device capable of removing deep-seated fence post without significant damage to the exterior of the fence post surface. The device of the present invention is compact, modular, and lightweight. The device is best suited to work in combination with a jack and/or hydrualic press, to lift the fence post out of the ground the corresponding distance. The device is sufficiently portable and does not require additional tool than previously mentioned. In post removing examples, the resulting assemblies provide a useful model for the intended use of the device.

Disclosed embodiments include post driving implements which attach to a power machine such as a loader in order to pick up posts of various sizes and materials and/or to drive the posts into the ground. In some exemplary disclosed embodiments, the post driving implement allows a post to be picked up when positioned inline with a direction of power machine travel and allows the post to rotate under the force of gravity to a second position in which the post is inline with a pounding mechanism for pounding the post into the ground. Catch mechanisms can be included to capture a portion of the implement to maintain the post in the second position until a release action is taken or a release command is given.

System for deploying and collecting road sticks. A loading frame is mounted on a vehicle and comprises a road stick depot. A stick collecting device is arranged on a first clamp in a stick handling frame. A stick-deployment device is arranged movable back and forth along a beam in the driving direction of the vehicle. The stick-deployment device comprises a funnel, rotational drives, a ground plate and drive means to move the stick-deployment device vertically. The system is arranged to deploy and collect road sticks while the vehicle is in motion.

A tool for extracting tent stakes from the ground is disclosed. The tool has a portion that houses the motor and hydraulic fluid tank, and a hydraulic cylinder portion the user holds against a tent stake and operates to pull the tent stake. Hydraulic hoses connect the two portions. Separating the motor from the hydraulic cylinder allows the user to manipulate just the portion performing work on the tent stake without having to also lift or stabilize the larger and heavier motor portion. Rotating a handle causes the hydraulic cylinder to extend or retract. A hand guard may be present to prevent accidental crush injuries. The tool is designed to fully extract a stake in two strokes of the hydraulic cylinder.
