What Tree Shear Works Well With Avant 630?

You can still grab / pick up cut stems by just ‘pinching’ the tree in the shear but I know what you mean. I’m happier cutting and letting it drop rather than cutting and holding on - means I can cut bigger and further away without risk of going over with it. 

The likely hood of tipping a 1000 kg machine with a tree or branch with a diameter of 6" is pretty slim, and if something does go wrong, the likelihood of a catastrophe is pretty slim, maybe a skinny 30' tree at max lying on something and a machine small enough for a few guys to shove back on its wheels.  
  Go dangling over a cliff with power lines underneath like Wyle coyote and then you might have a catastrophe 😂

Yes Doobin I know what you mean but for me with any attachment I own or hire its about being efficient and saving an already ageing body! 

With you all the way mate and I have more kit than most! But so far I've drawn the line at a tree shear on such a small carrier.

 

However, I'm happy to be proven wrong. Up until August I drew the line at a loader, now I have a second on the way!
