Using a sulky makes it possible to increase the hauling distance up to about 500 metres. This axle, equipped with two automobile wheels, is designed to support the ends of the trunks which usually drag on the ground. It consists of an axle about 1.5 m (5 ft) wide whose rounded surface makes it easier for the trunks to slide. A removable stake is installed on each side of the sulky, to contain the load. A tube welded perpendicular to the front of the axle, with a chain on the end, is used to attach the load firmly. 1, record 4, English, - sulky

L'utilisation d'un essieu-porteur permet d'augmenter la distance de débardage jusqu'à environ 500 mètres. Cet essieu, muni de deux roues d'automobiles, est conçu de façon à supporter l'extrémité des troncs qui traîne habituellement au sol. Il se compose d'un essieu d'une largeur d'environ 1.5 m (5 pi) et dont la surface arrondie facilite le glissement des troncs. Deux piquets amovibles sont installés de chaque côté de celui-ci, pour contenir la charge. Un tube, soudé perpendiculairement à l'avant de l'essieu et muni d'une chaîne à son extrémité, sert à attacher solidement la charge. 1, record 4, French, - essieu%2Dporteur
