Tree puller for little tractors

Now, add a hydraulic clamp for trees without forks.

Now we're talking!!!! Actually, if the V is shaped and sharpened right it will dig into the trunk. Only thing I'd question is that his fruit trees don't appear to root very well.

Very cool though. Makes me want to copy it. Maybe a next Winter project!!!!

No ROPS on that tractor.

Could sure use one of those here. Love the spaghetti maze of hoses........

I'm thinking a puller with a sliding mechanism that has teeth for grip and as you approach the trunk there's a V shaped collar that tightens as you lift like a slip knot sort of.

That way you'd have grip that only gets stronger as you lift but when you lower it opens up.

Your post reminded me of something like this for the tree grabber.

That's pretty close. Won't ever get stuck because you just lower it and like a pipe wrench the harder you lift the tighter it grabs. Could even be made more vertical and have pipe wrench type teeth for more power.

And that reminds me of a large version of a broom holder.
