Top 7 Attachments You Need In The Forestry Industry

1. Wheel Loader Attachment - High Tip Bucket

• The high tip bucket is the choice for you when you need to reach longer and higher.  They are best for light materials such as chip, peat and light gravel and when the bucket is emptied from a height much higher than a normal bucket.  With the hydraulic cylinder, the bucket pushes and tips the bucket over its front edge, which gives considerably more tipping height than with a normal bucket.

2. Wheel Loader Attachment - Log Grapple

• Move and load logs easily when you combine a grapple attachment with a Log Loader.  The Log Grapple is designed to work harder, last longer and perform better in the field or in the yard.  You can count on superb durability and serviceability in extreme conditions with your Log Grapple.

3. Wheel Loader Attachment - Log Forks

• The three important factors that combine to guarantee efficient long handling, visibility, reliability, and capacity.  The Log Forks combine all of these to deliver years of productive log handling.  An advantage to the Log Forks is the tine spacing.  On these forks, the tine spacing is infinitely adjustable.  This way, you can have them set to suit whatever job you have.

5. Excavator Attachment - Skeleton Bucket
