Loader-Mounted Brush Remover
"Our new loader-mounted brush remover lets you pull out brush and small trees up to 4 in. in diameter with the roots attached. Lets you remove, transport, and pile brush all from the tractor seat," says Diane Scissons, Lombardy, Ontario.The "Brush Brute" mounts on the loader arms in place of the bucket and is equipped with specially designed teeth. You drive forward and raise the loader at the same time. Small trees and brush pass through the wide openings at the front end of the teeth and then get jammed in the narrow openings at the rear end.
"Pushing and lifting the tree at the same time requires less power than simply lifting it,"says Scissons. "A 30 to 40 hp tractor can operate it. It works great for clearing brush from fence rows and pastures. Works above the ground and pulls trees out with little soil disturbance. Bulldozers require much more horsepower and fuel and leave small stumps that can injure cattle, puncture tractors tires, and allow brush to grow back even worse than before."
Fits any loader model. Sells for $1,689 (Canadian).
