Sawing trees, cutting the crown into sections, loading and transporting: everything done by one team and with the same machine.
Straight from the tree into the chipper. The whole tree is cleaned up immediately, without leaving any mess on the construction site. Cutting down trees with a chipper with forestry crane and GMT grapple saw. It’s fast, easy and efficient. And only one operator is needed for all operations.
Mount a GMT grapple saw to the chipper’s crane and you get a very efficient tree care unit. Suitable for both a tractor with chipper combination or a tracked chipper. The chipper-grapple saw combination is perfect for tree maintenance at green banks, green areas and for roadside clearing.
Tindle Tree Care – Ufkes Greentec 942 chipper with GMT035 TTC grapple saw
Cut the branches and trunk and put them directly into the chipper: everything done by one team and with the same machine. That’s how you save on manpower.
For whole tree and wood chippers with a forestry crane, we recommend the GMT grapple saw in the standard version and a GMT C10 quick coupler for easy changing between the standard timber grapple and the GMT grapple saw. Mount the GMT grapple saw and the C10 quick coupler, without technical modifications, on any chipper with a forestry crane. Thanks to the patented valve block, no additional hoses and/or control cables are required.
Safe and secure with TTC
For knuckle boom cranes we advise a GMT grapple saw with the TTC-system. The GMT Total Tree Control braking system (TTC) enables you to lower the tree section in a fixed position after cutting. An absolute must when trees are in an urban environment or in a difficult-to-reach position.
Easy hooking/unhooking with the Quick Hitch Jib
The grapple saw set for knuckle boom cranes comes with a quick hitch jib arm. This jib arm allows the grapple saw to swivel and rotate 360 degrees freely when the crane is in the upper position without touching the crane beam. It also makes hook on/of of the GMT grapple saw set very easy.
