Thanks, didn't know those brushcutters! Any opinion on Active Italian, Kaaz or Echo? We have a bulldozer (see pic above) but it's too hilly to use two of them with a chain in between... We also want to maintain the trees. Fire is not an option (only allowed in rain season to burn the cut brushes). Goats eat only the young, soft and sweet of those thorns... Once we've cleared more area our sheep and cows will help us to maintain the land.

Thanks! Is there any other than a Robo Flail? Another heavy duty clearing saw recommended than Stihl or Husquarna?

Well, I can't find any distributors of roboflail in Andalucia. Here is picture of the the terrain and the TK4.90 at work.

Hello everyone, happy to found this forum and it's my first topic here. We work on rehabilitate a finca in Spain near Gibraltar. A lot of olives, oaks and so many thorn brushes. We use a Takeuchi TB290-2 K and a New Holland TK4.90M where ever it's possible for cleaning the area from brushes. It's a very hilly area so for manual work we used to go with HUSQVARNA 555FRM so far. But the conditions are extreme for daily work: a lot of working hours, hot temperatures and dust. We 'kill' 1 clearing saw entirely every season and have a lot of motor and other spare parts replacements. A lot of gasoline as well.... Now we're thinking to try 2 of them: stihl 561 c-em But is there any more heavy duty, more durable alternative for manual work? Thanks in advance! Phil
