Forestry Attachments for 1.5 to 5 Tonne Excavators
The mini excavator class trades lift and flow for access, low ground disturbance and cheap mobilisation, which makes it the right carrier for urban stumps, hedges, orchards and light pruning.

Attachments by Excavator Size
Tonne class is the starting point, never the whole answer. Each page explains what the carrier class is commercially good at, which attachment families make sense, the lift-chart and hydraulic realities of that size, and lists every model whose published carrier band overlaps it.
Forestry Attachments for 5 to 10 Tonne Excavators
The 5 to 10 tonne class is the first carrier that can run a real stump grinder, a compact mulcher and a grapple saw while still moving on a tag trailer, which makes it the most versatile vegetation platform in most fleets.
Forestry Attachments for 10 to 16 Tonne Excavators
The 10 to 16 tonne class is where the heavy families begin, with the first WR shear, WE stump cutter and SC850 Pro, on a carrier that still floats without the cost of a 20 tonne move.
Forestry Attachments for 16 to 25 Tonne Excavators
The 16 to 25 tonne class is the workhorse of Australian clearing, carrying the full WR, WE, VM and EX ranges on the 20 tonne excavators that civil and infrastructure contractors already own.
Forestry Attachments for 25 to 40 Tonne Excavators
The 25 to 40 tonne class is the industrial end of the published range, where the VM-65SV, WR20, WE15 and EX40 make sense on major corridors and biomass projects but the published catalogue thins out quickly above 30 tonnes.
Forestry Mulchers for Skid Steers and Compact Track Loaders
Skid steers and compact track loaders trade the excavator's reach for forward-travel production, and the Shearex HM range spans them from 68 hp high-flow loaders to 250 hp dedicated carriers.
