All of my bucket/ground guys can use the excavator to some degree now.
A stick/root rake is a must have with burning off IMHO

Thumbs up Re: Vertical Tree Grab Excavator - Intermercato Grapples and saw grapple combinations

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if you had come across this before?
It is a vertical grapple with saw mounted on a rotator, it allows you to grab and saw the log off so it doesn't drop below, possibly into a sensitive area (like onto a building!).

We are preparing to be the new distributor for Intermercato Grapples in Australia (website launching soon) and will have a full range of log grapples, forest residue grapples, stone grapples and rotators to match.

Please scroll down to the second video (that loads very slowly on my computer!)
Intermercato AB

I would appreciate any feedback!

cheers,

Cameron Moir

That is the most prettiest stick rake I've ever seen alopa! nice.. What made you go with making it an actual attachment rather then just having it stand alone and holding it with the grabs?

If theres lots of raking its better to have it on the hitch more secure, isn't cheap its real deal.
