Tree Puller?

[LouieJunior]

Brush Grubber Post/Tree Puller Model# BG-10 | Weed Control Brush Removal| Northern Tool + Equipment

Kinda spendy, I'm still considering whether to buy or build... Steve

Read the second review. I looked at these earlier. Sounds more like a bark puller.

Not much of a cross-section there, one guy loves it, the other hates it. Hmmm... Steve

 

[LouieJunior]

Let us know if the brush grubber BG–10 works. I was ready to buy one until I read the reviews. I have an extreme brush grubber, the chain pull type, and it's a nice device. Only problem is, as stated earlier in this thread, it's a two man operation to work the chain. I'll buy the pallet fork model if there's a good testimonial from a TBNer.

Following-up on the above mentioned pallet fork tree puller. Anybody here have one of these? Wondering if you have to get off the tractor every time you pull a tree? (assuming it works as advertised)

Reading the PDF, it says after ripping up the the trunk and roots, to sit the plant back on the ground and the arms will lift allowing you to release the trunk.

Many years ago I had this on a MF240D 3 point.

It was too much of a hassle backing up to each tree, so I turned it around. any tree that I could drive over it would pull out.

---------------------

I took some pictures that show all of it and the bracket for the top link, that allows it to be turned around.

Brush Grubber BG-10: I bought one of these and soon learned the gap was too big for most of the trees I wanted to remove. I'm wanting to pull out willow trees, 1-1/2 to 2 inch diameter. My co-worker suggested grinding off the welds and re-welding the plates so I can grub smaller trees. My modified tree puller is shown below -- before and after...

 

[J_J]

Well, does it work like you want?

Not sure yet. We still have snow on the ground here and I'm more of a fair-weather tree puller! Will let you know when Spring arrives. I'm hopefull this modification will do the trick.

 

[cartod]

Ill stick with this one.

THANKS for posting those pics!! I was actually going to order one of those today!!! Of course BrushGrubber doesn't post a "top down view" pic of the BG-10 on their web site. The stuff that I need to pull out ranges from about 3/4" - 4" with a lot of it in the same size range that your willows are in. So obviously it won't work for me. You just saved me $500 and probably a lot of headaches trying to return it.

Be sure to post pics or video of it once you put it to use. Our tractors are about the same size and we probably have the same 300CX loader. I really would like to see how that BG-10 works with the tractor.

This is a very cool tool, but I assume there is not much chance that my little Kubota L3940 with skid steer QC and third function for a grapple could begin to utilize this attachment.

What do you think?

I don't think flow is an issue but limited lift capacity of the loader seems to be the biggest limitation.

Anyone get an answer to this question. I want to know if B2650 would be able to do the same for 1 & 2 inch trees.

 

[Dave M7040]

This is the one I am going to buy for my Kubota M7040 as I believe it will not depend on the lifting capacity of the FEL.
It would seem to be ideal for those with smaller tractors as well.

From post #17:

That is a interesting tool.

Can it be rotated for picking up logs and such?

-----------------------------------

No can't be rotated, but I did pick up some concrete with it.

Hey Dave, how did this work on your M7040? And what size and type trees did you pull? Thanks.

 

[LouieJunior]

You need a long armed puller for those cedars - good choice!

Pulling the Horizontal Trunk Cedar.

This is how resilient cedars are. This tree was cut with a shear about 10 years ago, but not all the way through the trunk. It fell over, but the roots from the uncut part of the trunk kept the tree alive, flat on the ground.

Bumping this old thread for those that haven't seen it.

Pulling an oddball two trunk cedar tree.

View from the seat, clamped on.

Pulled.

Shook the dirt off the roots.

Side view, note the angled trunk.

Our tree pullers have many advantages over the scissor jaw pullers.
We can custom build to fit any Machine.
We can also build dual mount units to fit on both the front and rear of the machine.
