Tree removal attachment and method

US-7322388-B2

Abstract

A tree removal attachment is provided which can be easily affixed to construction equipment such as a small loader or skidster. The tree removal attachment has at least one moveable blade which is powered preferably by the hydraulic system of the loader for use in tree removal. The tree removal attachment replaces a bucket or other loader equipment and can be operated in relatively small, confined areas. The method of use prevents the necessity of backfilling a large hole as usually formed by bulldozers as they extract the roots attached to a tree trunk during removal from the ground. The tree removal attachment can be adapted to work on various heavy equipment such as skidsters, bobcats, track-hoes, excavators, back-hoes, bulldozers, tractors, truck loaders, forklifts, cranes and other heavy equipment.
