[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 507535, member: 968"] randiliana - we do pretty much like you do - but - we use a rope if chains & handle isn't enough. We tie to a post, loop thru one handle and back around post - like a come-a-long. We push down with contractions & take up the slack. We do own a mechanical puller but can't remember if we EVER used it here on our farm. Also, we use LOTS of lube. I mix up some J-lube in a tub & have a small hand pump with a long piece of hose. Hubby guides the hose where he wants lube & I pump it. They come out soooo much easier if the are real slimey! [/QUOTE]
