Easiest way to do this is to put an electrically controlled diverter in one of your other circuits and have a changeover button, we've done this by sacrificing a horn button on the end of the stick before. Ie, thumb on "horn" button = rotate, "horn" button released = tree shear.

Pipe it into the offset boom via a 6 way valve. Low flow anyway and control it off the foot pedal.

Just a few of my mate Ollie out with his Duck setup I showed previously on a project that I looked at for my Liebherr setup.

I could have done it, but it simply didn’t need that much muscle.

A very simple solution was available in the form of step cutting them whilst being safely held with a grab, then simply skid them up the road into the grasp of the awaiting Chipper.

 

Great to see a well setup Duck doing it’s stuff roadside, and 52 conifers safely removed exactly to plan including a sweep up was a tidy 5 hour nights work in anyone’s book.

Been out on the M6 with a 22 Metre Long Reach and the Felling Head myself this week.

 

Great setup for the slope work and the Felling Head ensures nicely presented material for chipping and a decent bit of product too.

Good set of binoculars required I’d imagine Eddie!

Took a look around the OMEF 300 Shear on this very nice CAT 315FL.

 

Looks a really well built straightforward unit, massive ram and I liked the the addition of the stinger in the blade.

 

Could only really pick it up on where the hoses exit the main body as they’ll get creamed straight off, but not a big issue to sort.

 

Proof is in the pudding as they say, but I can see why they’re getting about.

Replaceable blade would be nice bud definitely looks strong.

They’re all replaceable, but you’d have to be going some to ever need it.

Would make a good shear carrier.
