What Are Excavator Tree Shear Attachments?

Tree cutter attachments are powerful tools that can be affixed to the arm of an excavator. They are designed to cut, trim, mulch, and gather tree limbs and brush, making them invaluable for projects involving tree removal, limb removal, stump removal, and work on uneven terrain. 

These excavator attachments are highly customizable, tailored to fit excavators ranging from 6,000 to 40,000 lbs. This ensures optimal performance no matter what your machine’s specifications may be.

How Do Excavator Tree Cutters Work?

Excavator tree shears function through a hydraulic system that provides the power needed to cut through trees, brush, and stumps. The attachment is controlled from the excavator’s cab, allowing for precision and control during operation.

The real magic happens when you add carbide tip-grinding teeth to the bottom of the Tree Slayer’s blade holder. These teeth are made from durable material and are low maintenance, cutting even the most challenging materials into fine pieces with less hassle than standard mower blades.

How to Use Excavator Brush Cutter Attachments

Using an excavator tree shear attachment effectively requires understanding its operation and safety precautions. 

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use these powerful tools:

1. Attachment: Begin by securely attaching the tree shear attachment to your excavator. This process will vary depending on the model of your excavator and the specific attachment. Always refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for precise steps.
2. Inspection: Once attached, inspect the tool to ensure everything is properly secured and functioning correctly. Check the hydraulic system, blades, and any additional features like carbide grinding teeth.
3. Operation: Position your excavator at a safe distance from the tree or brush you intend to cut. Using the excavator’s controls, maneuver the tree shear attachment towards the tree. Make sure the area is clear of people and other obstructions.
4. Cutting: Position the blade of the attachment around the bush or tree prior to cutting. Once in position, activate the shear to cut through the material. The cut’s power depends on your excavator’s hydraulic system and the sharpness of the shear blades.
5. Clearing: After cutting, use an excavator attachment to gather and move the cut material. Some attachments, like the Tree Slayer, have the ability to mulch the debris into smaller pieces, making clearing easier.
6. Safety: Always follow safety guidelines when operating heavy machinery and attachments. This includes wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), maintaining a safe distance from the operating area, and ensuring the machine is in good working condition.

Remember, every model of excavator and tree shear might require slightly different operation techniques. Always consult your operator’s manual or seek professional advice if you need clarification on any step in the process.
