Is the TMK400 tree shear worth its weight in gold

#gold #weight #excavator
Not much action happening because keeps knocking the camera off 😂 anyway this year the TMK400 worth its weight in gold the amount of work done with it this year has been unreal along with the GEITH GT TILTING HITCH all on my Volvo ec140el excavator/digger is one hell of a set up!!!!

I work with saw blade on digger but have to put grab on to tidy up when I am finished cutting that's much handyer

Great video, I thought the video footage was fine, as long as you're uploading I'll keep watching 👍

[@dig84]

Thank you appreciate it it’s hard when I sit there and think people will think it’s boring so don’t film it 👍

[@thomassteadman6781]

great video nice to see a bit of footage of tmk working up close shame bout having no place to put gopro while tree sheering

[@dig84]

Cheers like I said I’ll have another look today and see if there is anywhere on there for the camera 👍

Good to see the shear working up close. Do you have to sharpen the blade very often?

[@dig84]

Havnt sharpened it in a year and that is the god’s honest truth probably will sharpen tomorrow as you can tell it’s starting to tear instead of cut 👍

If you’re shearing an escaped hedge down to the ground, say a stem every metre or 2 how many metres can you do a day?

[@dig84]

If it’s a straight cut and move to the next bit I can cut down a huge amount in a day the thing that takes time is if you have to process the wood aswell

[@andy199121]

@@dig84 I’ve heard numbers like 3-400m a day, is that possible?

[@dig84]

@@andy199121 if it’s a straight forward cut and dump then onto the next one then yeah it’s possible I’ve got a job coming up end of jan removing a hedge row with the TMK400 then destump after I’ll see how quickly I can do that and have a measure up 👍

[@andy199121]

@@dig84 yeah be good to hear back from you. I’m a hedge layer and got potential a coppicing job next year about 800 metres. Thinking of just subbing out to a shearer to clear the lot then I can come in process and gap up by hand. What areas do you cover?

[@dig84]

@@andy199121 sounds good I cover any area as long as the £ is right it doesn’t matter where it is 👍

[@samkennerley5951]

Any thoughts on the john deere? Footage is top notch mate carnt complain 👌

[@dig84]

Cheers mate 👍

[@owenjones1756]

What’s the maximum cut on your machine?

[@dig84]

Suppose to be 400mm in diameter but all depends on the wood you cut I mean with pine I can go a lot bigger well all wood I can go up to about 470-480mm just all depends on how and where you cut really. I can fell a lot bigger just by taking a gob out of one side then cut straight through the other if that makes sense 👍

[@mikebarker7591]

Try putting the camera on the roof of the digger?

[@dig84]

Have done and when I’m at full reach twigs fall off and hit the cab and camera 😂 I can’t win
