![]() Felling heads are increasingly common on self-leveling logging machines including those equipped for tethering. ![]() Hotsaws can handle trees over two feet in diameter, and in smaller wood can grab trees in bunches due to independently controllable grab arms.įelling heads are equipped with retracting bar saws like a processor, but the head itself is often designed more for shovel logging than simple cutting. As the tree is cut, a group of hydraulic arms grab the tree and lower it to the ground for processing or transport to the log deck via a skidder or yarder. The weight of the disc and its row of carbide teeth (bolted to the saw at a right angle) ensure trees are cut quickly and effortlessly. A hotsaw is equipped with a continuously rotating disc that operates at high RPM. Feller bunchers are equipped with two main styles of heads: hotsaws and felling heads.
