Comparing Lackender by ECS Tree Puller Skid Steer Attachments
By: Logan Stutsman | Sales
On the fence (see what we did there) about which tree puller attachment, the Lackender by ECS Extreme Tree & Post Puller or the Lackender by ECS Tree Shark Tree Puller & Stump Remover, you need? The questions I pose are: what are you trying to accomplish now, as well as are there any off-the-wall projects you may have in the future?
If recreational small tree and post plucking (all above ground) is all you’ll ever intend on doing, I’d recommend the Extreme Tree & Post Puller all day long. If above-ground tugging is your primary use but you know you tend to venture into some more serious tree and brush-clearing situations from time to time, I’d encourage you to not limit your future self and lean into the digging power of the Tree Shark Tree Puller & Stump Remover. Beyond the ability to cut and dig below-ground roots, the bigger, dual hydraulic cylinders offer more squeeze power for larger posts, trees or brush. Given the more aggressive power of the Tree Shark, the back shield protects your skid steer as you tackle overgrown areas. Here are a few of the key features and differences of both:
Extreme Tree & Post Puller
- Hydraulic cylinder out front for more power
- Protective sleeves on hydraulic hoses
- 3″ pivot pin
- Guard to prevent trees from getting too deep or stuck
- Easily pulls posts up to 8″ in diameter and up to 6″ trees
Tree Shark Tree Puller & Stump Remover
- Hydraulic cylinder out front for more power
- Protective sleeves on hydraulic hoses
- Two 1½” pivot pins allowing both sides
to open - Dual 3½” x 4” cylinders with 1¼” pins
- 48” jaw opening and 29,000lb clamping force to pull 12” trees
- ⅝” AR400 serrated vertical teeth for cutting upward through roots
- 1” x 8” Cutting Edge is able to dig under stumps and roots
- Steps on both sides
- Back shield
