question for you mechanical loggers

[Oldtimer]

A dangle head is almost useless for my application. I'd have to have a fixed head, sometimes called a "controlled" head.



Like I said, if this style in the picture can not gather several stems (or a couple dozen small saplings) before dumping....it too is no good for my application.

You can put an accumulater arm on this bar saw heads for smaller clumpy timber.

It doesn't play hell with the saw? I can imagine it doing that.

We took our accumulater off. You can cut doubles pretty easy as well as smaller clumps. The head has amazing amount of grip. Tension against the lean a bit with the head and the cut opens up as you go. Sometimes its necessary to cut with the saw without grabbing the tree, then catch the stem as it falls.

Or simply grab the stem you want from the clump and rip it out by the roots. The root structure s
Is usually only on one side and they come pretty easy.

Plan on bending some bars, it comes with the territory
