Product Summary

The LimbSaw Limbinator Hydraulic Bucket Chainsaw is an innovative tree trimming attachment that uses the height and hydraulic power of a tractor with front-end loader to create a trimmer that is quiet, safe and environmentally friendly without sacrificing power and usability. It mounts to the front-end loader's bucket and connects to an auxiliary hydraulic hookup for power. The 20in. bar, 0.325in. pitch saw sits on an 8ft. steel mast that gives you an 18ft.–21ft. reach, when used with a fully extended loader bucket, and operates at 5,000 RPM. Because the Limbinator uses hydraulic power instead of a gas engine, the only sound it makes comes from the spinning chain and the operator can worry less about falling limbs from the safety of a tractor seat.

    1 answer
