After the initial pull using two hands and a good bit of my rather hefty body weight, it came out with one hand. Leverage is your friend!
      Good to know in a pinch. Getting ready to do some modifications and needed some tips--thanks

When you have good leverage between the driver and post, pull the t-posts towards you. As the post starts to raise, push the post away from you and let the lip of the driver fall down to the next barb and pull towards you again. 3 -5 good pulls should do it.
              Did this last week. Worked like a charm.

                  I always just like attaching it to the bucket of the tractor and pulling it out.

                      I never thought pulling t-posts could be this easy, but it really works. If you have soft ground, you need to put something under the driver to keep it from sinking in the ground.

                        Never thought about using the driver in this fashion. Tried this the other day after reading about on here months ago. Worked like a charm!!!
                        I think it actually was faster than using a tractor bucket when you figure in the time to move the tractor and wrap/unwrap the chain.

                          Although I sure wouldn't recommend this t-post puller, I will say this for Northern Tool... They gave me my money back, no questions asked.
