ABSTRACT

Examples herein generally relate to a pole pulling device and a method of
operating thereof. The pole pulling device includes a support frame; a
clamping mechanism coupled to the support frame, and comprising at least two
clamp members for engaging an elongate pole, wherein the clamping mechanism is
operable to move between an expanded position to receive the pole, and a
contracted position to securely engage the pole; and a ramming mechanism
coupled to the support frame, and comprising at least one ramming assembly,
wherein after the clamping mechanism engages the pole, the ramming mechanism
is operable to translate from a retracted state to an expanded state to apply
axial force to extract the pole from a surface.
