What size trees will the BrushMaster® clear?
The BrushMaster® cuts down trees up to 4″ in diameter, rolling them as the limbs are cut off and mulched. The tree trunks are left flat on the ground where they quickly deteriorate or for ease in removal. Other machine manufacturers claim that they can cut through trees greater than 4″, and up to 10″. However, they do not comment about the fact that it is the most inefficient method of cutting down a tree. To cut a large tree into chips with a flail or drum machines can take hours. It is far less costly to cut down large trees with chain saws and then remove them for lumber, pulp wood, fencing, or dispose of them by burning. Another efficient disposal method is using large commercial chippers that prepare the chips to be used by landscapers for mulch.
