Hey guys,
We're KW Land Works out of the Florida Panhandle. Our bread and butter is forestry mulching for Panama City and Niceville but we service anywhere between/south of Pensacola, Dothan and Tallahassee. Most of what we cut is either titi in wet areas or hardwoods in upland pine hammocks. Consequently, we get into some sand but not many rocks. Of course there's the hidden steel, concrete/asphalt piles that are probably in every region.
We have a Cat 299D XHP with the Cimaf 180D head that is fantastic. Sharpening teeth isn't the funnest thing ever but it beats mulching at half the speed.
We've been debating buying an additional carbide-toothed head or rotary cutter for the jobs that we know are laden with debris that will give the cimaf a hard time. Other than debris tolerance, does a rotary tree cutter have any advantage over the Cimaf head? The planar vs carbide debate has been pretty well covered so I'll leave that alone.
Thanks,
Jim Keith
