Is a GMT grapple saw suitable for your company?
Sawing trees, cutting the crown into sections, loading and transporting: everything done by one team and with the same machine.
Do you work with a forestry tractor such as a skidder, for towing tree trunks or long logs? Increase the versatility of your skidder with a grapple saw from GMT Equipment, and you can cut trees anywhere. No extra manpower or technicial modifications required. Just mount the felling head to the skidder’s forestry crane.
Use the GMT felling head on your skidder to harvest energy wood, prune and crown trees or fell entire trees. Tree maintenance at green banks, green areas and along highways, railways and waterways is child’s play with a felling head. Clearing fallen trees after a storm is a job ideal for skidder with a GMT Equipment grapple saw.
Stadt Düsseldorf – Welte W130 skidder with GMT050 grapple saw
Sawing trees, cutting the crown into sections, loading and transporting: everything done by one team and with the same machine. That’s how you save on manpower.
For skidder forestry machines, 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 skidder forestry machine 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.
