Wood & Forestry Attachments for Tractors

Pricing for forestry attachments like tree shears varies based on size, cutting capacity, and features such as brushguards or extended arms. Factors like cylinder rating, shear blade material, and weight also influence cost. Maxx Attachments provides pricing on request based on your specific equipment and application needs.

A good forestry attachment should match your tractor's hydraulic flow and lift capacity, feature durable materials like AR400 steel blades, and suit your target tree diameter and species. For hydraulic tree shears, look for solid cast steel arms, replaceable knives, and hose protection to ensure long-term reliability in demanding clearing work.

The 14-inch model uses solid cast steel shear arms and cuts trees up to 14 inches in diameter, while the 16-inch model uses fabricated A572 steel arms for extreme-duty clearing of trees up to 16 inches. Both are available with standard or extended arms and optional brushguard configurations.

The Ranch Axe Tree Shear can cut trees up to 14 inches in diameter with the standard model or up to 16 inches with the extended-duty model. It handles both hardwood species like oak, mesquite, and osage orange, as well as softwood species such as cedar.

The Ranch Axe Tree Shear mounts using universal skid steer coupler hooks with standard flow flat face couplings, making it compatible with most new-model skid steer loaders. A minimum hydraulic flow rate of 15 gpm is required for proper operation of the shearing cylinders.

The Ranch Axe Tree Shear requires a minimum hydraulic flow rate of 15 gpm to operate its two shearing cylinders, which are rated at 4,000 psi. Ensuring your machine meets this flow requirement is essential for achieving full shearing power and cutting performance.
