Tree Shear Attachment Fitted
Posted Wednesday October 16th 2019
This nifty attachment was fitted to one of our long reach excavators for a customer this week – a PC360SLF with a 22m reach.
Tree Shear Attachment with Long Reach Excavator
Tree Shear can be fitted on the majority of our excavators, but the combination of a long reach excavator with the grapple saw has huge benefits; you can reach higher, reach over water plus remove branches at a safer distance.
The grapple saw is operated by a third control fitted in the cab. It fully rotates & spins so can cut at any angle, even horizontal branches. It combines the features of a vice-like grapple that locks onto the branch with a chainsaw that cuts through it within seconds then lowers it to the ground in a safe & controlled manner.
Safety First
Tree work can be very dangerous, using a grapple saw attachment gives you complete control eliminating most of the dangers and keeps workers on the ground at a safer distance. The Komatsu PC360SLF (Super Long Front) excavator has a ROPS & FOPS cab plus a massive 22 metre reach. It has all the CE certification and lifting charts that are necessary for environment agency work.
