Can a tree shear attachment handle both tree trunks and branches?

Yes, a tree shear attachment is designed to handle both tree trunks and branches, though the efficiency and capability will depend on the specific model. Many excavator tree shear attachments come with adjustable blades that can shear through thick trunks as well as trim branches. For smaller trees, the shear works quickly and efficiently, cutting through wood with ease. When it comes to branches, a tree cutter attachment is often more flexible as it can be used for finer trimming and detailed work, such as clearing dense brush. The versatility of a tree shear makes it ideal for all stages of tree removal, from clearing the underbrush to felling large trees, all while ensuring high precision.
