All our most popular attachments are also available for the TMK 400, the largest of our shears. TMK Tree Shear attachments are designed to be easy and simple to retrofit.

1. 1. COLLECTOR - The simple operation of the collector makes work quick and easy work if there are also smaller-diameter trees among the trees being felled.Thanks to it high productivity, the collector is TMK Energiakoura’s most popular attachment. The simple operation of the collector enables quick and easy operation, especially when thinning a young forest.With the collector, you can cut and collect thin trunks without having to lift the boom after each cut, turn the machine and drop a small trunk into a pile individually. This means you can minimise functions that consume fuel, and instead use the full capacity of the shear to make a bundle of trees.
   

The TMK Tree Shear collector operates automatically in an open-and-close motion until the bundle is released. When the shear is closed, the collector opens up on the other side of the trunk. When the shear is being opened again, the collector grips the wood, and only after that will the grapple open. This will keep the cut trees in a tight grip. Manual control is not needed until the bundle is being released. The operator presses a button that activates an electric valve, or alternatively the bundle can be released by keeping the shear in the open position.Thanks to the TMK Tree Shear collector, you can process your wood material in bundles without any extra hydraulics. Many similar equipment by our competitors require a separate hydraulic line, which makes work much slower.

2.DELIMBER - The delimber helps make the most of energy wood.Planning on getting a shear with delimber function? The TMK Tree Shear delimber enables optimal use of energy wood. Demand is high in the Nordic countries for trimmed timber, making the delimber a really popular attachment. The delimbing e tree shear, or energy wood grapple if you like, makes your work significantly more efficient.Why would you get a separate trimming machine if the alternative is a cost-effective product package? When you get a TMK Tree Shear delimber, you can trim your timber with your existing machinery.The delimber operates on a very simple principle: you take the tree shear at the base of the tree and grab it between the delimber and grapple. Delimbing the tree is fluent thanks to the diamond-shaped slot where the tree trunk is held in place. The diamond shape in the same direction as the machine allows for a certain amount of freedom as to the position of the shear relative to the tree. This creates a smooth movement, making delimbing faster and simpler without great danger of the tree snapping in half during the process.It is crucial in delimbing that the bark is broken, because it speeds up the drying process. The TMK Tree Shear delimber scrapes the bark and surface at best simultaneously from three sides, making it dry much more quickly. When trees are delimbed when cut, the trunks thaw more quickly in the spring, and they are easier to handle. This also increases the timber’s calorific value.

The delimber can be attached to all TMK Tree Shear models. The delimber works without rolls or pulses. It can also be installed to operate without electricity, and it is easy to retrofit on the shear.

3. BRUSHGRAPPLE - The BrushGrapple makes it easy to cut even the smallest twigs.With the TMK Tree Shear BrushGrapple, you can cut even the smallest trees neatly. An additional blade welded at the bottom of the grapple is sharpened on one side only, and it eliminates the gap between the grapple and the blade. As a result, the cutting motion becomes more scissor-like and even the most flexible twigs, such as small willows, are cut cleanly. The wood chipper stays in better condition, too, when no extra soil and stones are brought into it.

The BrushGrapple is such an essential attachment that most of our shears are sold with it.

4. SOLID EXTENSION BEAM The solid extension beam gives more reach and protects the excavator pipes from contact with branches.TMK Tree Shear’s solid extension beam provides extra safety when working in difficult locations and when dealing with problem trees. Moreover, it makes the clearing of field edges easier. The solid extension beam connected to a tilt rotator enables you to cut down a tree round an obstacle without having to move the machine.

The extension beam (or fixed extension or mechanical extension beam) is an excellent attachment especially with a delimber, because it speeds up work and makes it more cost-effective. The extension beam adds about a metre (3 feet) of extra reach.The extension beam was designed specifically to be used with a tilt rotator, because it enables you to keep the rotator’s sensible hoses at a safe distance from the branches, thereby minimising damage to them.
