Now i like that Eddie!! Tree clear near preston have a 7.5t with flail head and they put a donkey engine on the back ballast to power the flail head. What kinda diameter will it tackle?

 

Thanks very much, it's a stunning site to work on.

 

An engine pack is the way if possible, but obviously my machine has to do such a wide range of work.

The FAE is in reality the best I can find in this class for the cost and packs a serious punch. The fact it has the two opening doors exposes a huge amount of the rotor making it very aggressive and able to work effectively either direction.

 

Size is one of them piece of string questions but Rodie up to approx 12" is pretty straightforward, and something like a birch of 6 to 8" would be very easily disposed of to below ground level.

Things like bramble, gorse, heather etc it literally hoovers up, and in soft conditions you've got to remember the Kubota will go pretty much where you can't walk and mow a swath of 14.5 metres wide.

Covering a large site, it's remarkable how little you traffic it?

 

There's also the winch which can be used for safety on slopes and also eliminates the need for any scratching and scrabbling about to get back up a slope.

It's a strange sensation when you're down on the wire though!:biggrin:

 

The Rhodie picture was as extreme as it gets but was mulched, and the if you look at the last you will see the wire to the 20 tonner!

 

Eddie.
