Skid Steer Tree Saw

Clearing dense timber or overgrown fence lines requires more than a chainsaw. A skid steer tree saw transforms your loader into a high-speed cutting machine, allowing you to drop trees safely from the cab. This tool is a standout in our Skid Steer Attachments lineup for its speed and precision.

Our selection features top-tier models like Baumalight saws, known for their bent-axis piston motor options. These motors deliver high torque and speed to the blade, ensuring a clean cut every time. The design often allows the head to rotate 90 degrees or even 180 degrees for vertical trimming. Check out our Baumalight Attachments for specific models.

Investing in a quality tree saw means less downtime and safer operation for the user. Whether you are performing tree maintenance or large-scale land clearing, these attachments are built for the long haul. Pair them with Skid Steer Grapples to easily move the debris after cutting.

What Sets our Skid Steer Tree Saw Apart

• Rotating Head Design: Many of our skid steer tree saws feature a rotating head that pivots 180 degrees, allowing the operator to switch from cutting trees at the base to trimming overhanging limbs with ease.

• High-Performance Motors: We utilize bent-axis piston motors in our premium models, which provide superior efficiency and torque to the blade compared to standard gear motors.

• Replaceable Carbide Teeth: The cutting disc features durable tooth holders and rotatable carbide teeth, making maintenance simple and extending the saw's life.

• Heavy-Duty Construction: Built with thick steel plates and protective armor, these attachments are designed to withstand the falling limbs and rough conditions found in rural and forestry environments.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Skid Steer Tree Saw

• Hydraulic Flow Requirements: Check your skid steer's hydraulic flow (GPM) and pressure (PSI). A high-speed saw often requires a high-flow carrier to maintain blade RPM for aggressive cutting.

• Cutting Capacity: Consider the maximum diameter of the tree you need to remove. A standard tree saw can typically handle 10 to 20-inch trees, but specific models vary.

• Reach and Height: If your primary goal is tree trimming, look for a limb saw or a pole-style attachment that offers extended reach to cut branches high above the ground.

• Cab Safety: When cutting trees, falling debris is a risk. Ensure your machine is equipped with a forestry door or impact-resistant glass to prevent injury and ensure operator safety.

• Control Interface: Some saws require an electrical connection to operate the rotate function or spray systems. Verify that the attachment is compatible with your loader's electrical controls.

Who Needs a Skid Steer Tree Saw?

• Ranchers and Farmers: Essential for clearing invasive cedars or hardwoods from pastureland and maintaining clean fence lines without leaving the skid steer cab.

• Utility Contractors: The ideal tool for Right-of-Way (ROW) maintenance, allowing crews to trim branches away from power lines efficiently and safely.

• Municipal Crews: Perfect for roadside maintenance, where small trees and brush obstruct visibility and need to be removed quickly.

• Forestry Mulching Services: A tree saw complements a mulcher by handling larger-diameter timber that would otherwise slow down the mulching operation.

• Landscapers: Allows for precise removal of specific trees in a residential or commercial setting with minimal ground disturbance compared to a bulldozer.
