This six-blade tree spade can move trees with trunks up to 5" in diameter and a root ball 50" in diameter and 43" deep. The dual-hinged outer frame arms allow the Baumalight PT650 tree spade to open up, and hug the tree for accurate positioning and to prevent damage to lower branches. The six blades deliver easier spading, cleaner cuts and a better root ball for a more viable transplant.
The standard skid steer mount is a great way to move trees with the Nomad treespade,however to match the equipment
you have with the size of trees you need to move, Baumalight offers 3-point hitch type of mounting option.Down pressure, positioning and lifting of the spade is achieved by the integrated lift cylinders. The parallel lift linkage lifts the tree and spade out of the hole. These frames also have a tilt control that helps position the frame solidly on the ground and to help with weight positioning during transport. Controls are extended so that the operator controls the spading action from the tractor. For optimal results we recommend pairing the 3PH models with a loader tractor or front mounted counterweights for easier tree removal and stable transport.
