Chippers/Shredders
Chipper attachment
The Bobcat chipper attachment
is designed to eliminate tree limbs, branches and other debris quickly,
safely and easily. It grinds branches and tree limbs with up to 35-hp of
chipping performance and reduces branch volume 10-to-1. A standard
hydraulic power feed allows the feed roller to move branches into the
chipper at a consistent speed.

Shear attachment
The Tree Limb Shear attachment attaches to a Gradall boom, which gives the operator
the angle to productively trim branches and limbs that extend over
roadways. The low working profile of the Gradall telescoping boom also
allows the operator to position the carrier and work under tree limb
obstructions — something that is not possible with a conventional
knuckle boom. The attachment can typically cut through large branches 8
to 10 inches in diameter.
