Loflin Tree Pullers

Tree puller jaws feature serrated teeth that bite into bark and wood as hydraulic pressure closes the grip. Multiple rows of teeth prevent slipping during lifting. The tighter the pull, the stronger the grip becomes on the trunk.

Yes, Loflin Tree Pullers effectively remove shrubs, bushes, and vegetation with shallow or spreading root systems. The jaw design grips low on the stem, allowing operators to extract entire root masses. This prevents regrowth common with cutting methods.

Inspect jaw teeth for wear and damage before each use. Grease all pivot points and cylinder pins regularly to ensure smooth operation. Check hydraulic hoses for leaks or abrasion and clean debris from the jaw mechanism after clearing sessions.

Exercise caution when pulling trees near buried utility lines. Root extraction disturbs soil and may contact underground pipes or cables. Always call 811 to locate utilities before clearing. Pull away from marked lines and consider cutting instead of pulling in sensitive areas.

Tree pullers remove entire root systems, eliminating the ability for stumps to sprout new growth. Cut trees often regenerate from remaining roots, requiring repeated maintenance. Complete root extraction provides permanent removal and reduces long-term vegetation management costs.
