This thing is neat. Little scarry hittin a tree at those speeds on a quad....

Introducing the DR TreeChopper Tree Shear: Low Cost and Effective Tree Cutting - YouTube

Hope the link works. If not go to DR's site and look it up....

That's cool. Hard to believe it made it past the legal department at DR equipment!

dont know that i would do it on an ATV but would certanly tackle it with a UTV or one of those mini trucks.

If its capable of snipping 2" trunks at about 6-10mph, i guess you should be able to shear 10" trunks at about 35mph, right?

That math works like if the directions say to cook at 350 for 30 minutes you should be able to cook at 700 for 15 minutes. My wife tells me that won't work

Here in Oregon, those are not even trees. We have brush tougher than that. I have used a brush hog on stuff bigger than that

Haven't tried it yet, but I suspect my Ratchet Rake would uproot those little cedars.

 

[trktrman]

I can smell a lawsuit brewin!!!!
Way too many possibilities of danger there.

 

[chin]

imagin slamming into and grabbing one of those trees while there is a paper wasp nest in one. That would be funny as **** to see on video. bwahahahahah

 

[rd_macgregor]

Also, its a good thing ATV's don't have air bags.

 

[Ed of all trades]

Yea, BUT..... I want one it looks like fun to me. If.........

 

[Dan Hunter]

It strikes me that it can't match a hydraulic sheer for ground level or lower cutting and rugged terrain would make it even more likely that you'll generate trip hazzards or catch the blades and endo.

I think the best use would be very emphatic crowd control. "Leave the area or we will...."

 

[Wyobuckaroo]

Having thought about this for a minute.......
I believe that eventually there will be a post about 35mph brush/tree cutting that starts with a statement like......
"Hold my beer"

Good luck

 

[rockshaft]

I wonder if they issue that cool full face tinted helmet with the purchase? Maybe some sort of bungee harness would also be a DR accessory.

 

[jerrybob]

Does it come with a brain?

 

[mowin]

I dont think it would work well on uneven ground. Imagine a front tire dropin into a gofer hole and that thing digin into the ground.

 

[KingDelta5]

Looks like freedom to me ! I think a man ought to be free to do his self in if he must !

 

[robbyr]

Hey bring that thing to Texas and try it out on some mesquite.
