Tree Saw Makes Land Clearing Easy

Tree Saw Makes Land Clearing Easy The Marshall Tree Saw Model 1600 skid steer attachment is engineered for efficiency and versatility, making land clearing easier than ever. Compatible with both high and low-flow machines, from 16 to 40 gpm, this attachment features a tough, AR 400 ballistic-grade blade that eliminates the need for sharpening or tip replacements. Its unique design includes extended stabilizer teeth for initial penetration and a large 32-in. dia. blade that methodically slices through trees. “You might think it’ll take a long time to cut because it’s slow turning, but that’s not true,” says Marketing and Sales Department Head Piper Reynolds. “One cycle is 16 in. in diameter, and it’s completed in only 6 seconds.” Universal mounting attachments ensure the attachment fits any skid steer. The Marshall Tree Saw handles both hardwood and softwood trees with diameters from 2 in. to 48 in. “It’s so strong and rugged, even if you have a steel T post in your fence and there’s a tree growing beside it, it’ll cut through both at the same time,” Reynolds says. The saw cuts flush to the ground or with the blade buried in dirt, gravel or rocks without throwing debris, thanks to its relatively slow spin speed. It also cuts up to 16 ft. above the ground. Two central 24-in. stroke hydraulic cylinders deliver 80,000 lbs. of torque, enabling safe, controlled cuts, even on the toughest trees, while a heavy-duty chain drive delivers unmatched strength and precision. A standout feature is the dual herbicide pipes on either side of the saw, allowing users to spray while cutting. Options include a sprayer tank that connects to a skid-steer power source and a brush guard designed to provide added protection for cylinders and hoses during pushing, piling or felling trees. The Marshall Tree Saw doesn’t just cut; it also moves felled trees. “Simply stab into the tree with the stabilizer teeth, rotate the blade to grab it, and suck it into the pocket,” Reynolds explains. “Then you can stack and clean up what you’ve just cut. And to release the tree, just rotate the bidirectional blade in the opposite direction.” Manufactured in Tulsa, Okla., and sold worldwide, this unique tool is popular with farmers, ranchers, municipalities, conservation departments, outdoor enthusiasts and others. Priced at $24,800 (subject to material costs), the company offers delivery, setup and hands-on training. The Marshall Tree Saw’s powerful, low-maintenance blade can last 2 to 20 years, depending on usage and terrain. Replacement parts are available as well.
