Product Description

Fecon Tree Shear | Model FBSD1500SS & Bobcat Setup | Cutting Capacity 15" | 15–23 GPM | For Skid Steer & Compact Track Loader

DESCRIPTION

The Fecon FBSD1500SS Tree Shear is a heavy-duty forestry attachment engineered for efficient tree cutting, land clearing, thinning, fuels reduction, and right-of-way maintenance. Designed for skid steers and compact track loaders, this hydraulic tree shear delivers powerful cutting performance with 15–23 GPM hydraulic flow and a maximum cutting capacity of 15 inches in diameter. Its dual AR400 steel blades provide a positive, controlled cut while keeping the tree centered for improved handling. The heavy-duty cylinders and rods support strong shearing action and faster cycle times, while the durable yet lightweight frame helps reduce ground pressure. The integrated universal SSL/CTL quick attach simplifies carrier mounting, and carrier-specific hoses and couplers provide proper hydraulic connection. An accumulator arm helps shear, lift, bunch, and carry multiple trees efficiently, making the FBSD1500SS a versatile solution for professional forestry and vegetation management applications.

Key Features

  • 15-Inch Cutting Capacity Designed to shear trees and woody material up to 15 inches in diameter, giving operators a practical solution for professional tree removal, land clearing, thinning, and vegetation management applications.
  • 15–23 GPM Hydraulic Flow Optimized for 15–23 GPM auxiliary hydraulics, making this tree shear compatible with properly equipped skid steers and compact track loaders without requiring high-flow hydraulics.
  • Dual AR400 Steel Blades Heavy-duty AR400 steel knives deliver durable cutting performance and are adjustable to help maintain effective engagement with tree stems while supporting long service life in demanding forestry conditions.
  • Shear, Lift, Bunch & Carry The integrated bunching shear design lets operators cut, lift, gather, and carry multiple trees with one attachment, reducing handling steps and improving productivity during clearing and thinning work.
  • Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Cylinders Robust hydraulic cylinders and rods provide strong shearing force and faster cycle times, helping operators process trees efficiently while maintaining dependable performance in demanding applications.
  • Universal SSL/CTL Quick Attach The built-in universal quick-attach system is designed for skid steer and compact track loader carriers, allowing straightforward attachment mounting when matched with the correct carrier configuration.
  • Lightweight Durable Frame A strong yet lightweight frame balances durability with manageable attachment weight, helping maintain efficient carrier operation while providing a solid structure for repeated forestry applications.
  • Adjustable Steel Knives Adjustable AR400 knives help optimize tree engagement and cutting performance, providing operators with a durable cutting system suited to recurring tree shear and land-clearing workloads.
  • Positive Dual-Knife Cutting The dual-knife action helps maintain the tree centrally within the shear and carrier, supporting controlled cuts and efficient material handling during tree removal operations.
  • Accumulator Arm Included The standard accumulator arm helps capture and retain multiple stems, making it easier to bunch and transport cut trees and improving workflow efficiency during forestry and vegetation management projects.
  • Forestry Land Clearing Tool Built for land clearing and site preparation, the FBSD1500SS can remove standing trees before follow-up work such as mulching, grading, construction preparation, or vegetation cleanup.
  • Ideal for Fuels Reduction The tree shear attachment supports forest thinning and fuels reduction projects where selective tree removal and controlled material handling are more important than grinding stems into mulch.
  • Right-of-Way Maintenance Suitable for roadside, utility, pipeline, and property maintenance, the tree shear provides a practical method for removing unwanted vegetation while keeping material under operator control.
  • Carrier-Specific Hydraulics Hydraulic hoses and couplers are configured according to the carrier, helping ensure the attachment is properly connected to the machine's auxiliary hydraulic system for reliable operation.
  • Professional Tree Removal The Fecon tree shear combines cutting, holding, lifting, bunching, and carrying capabilities into one forestry attachment, making it a versatile choice for professional vegetation management contractors.
