Unique grapple saw and quick coupler

What makes our felling head so unique? Mounted on mobile cranes, rotating telehandlers, container trucks, wood harvesting machines or forestry machines, it means you no longer need to use a cherry-picker. One person can operate the grapple saw from the ground! Directly off the tree into a container or chipper. In short: less manpower, less material and minimal nuisance to the environment!
