EXCAVATOR ATTACHMENTS
FOR Georgia.
Georgia's large working-forest footprint and storm-damaged timber put a premium on attachments that can penetrate roots, separate debris and move heavy woody material efficiently.
High-strength tools for timber and recovery work.

Which attachment should I quote for a Georgia site with both fallen timber and rooted stumps?
Separate the material into loose wood and intact root systems. A grapple rake addresses gripping and sorting the loose material; a stumper or ripper addresses penetration and root removal. Explain which stage represents most of the work and how large the pieces are. Do not size a gripping attachment only from the excavator’s weight; reach and the load being handled also matter.
Standard vs. sawtooth excavator rippers →BEFORE YOU
INQUIRE.
- Choose between a standard and sawtooth ripper based on roots, hard ground and desired penetration.
- State whether clearing debris must be gripped, sorted or windrowed.
- Provide machine size, coupler type and the material the attachment will encounter.
- Always provide machine make and model, coupler type and required pin-on measurements. See the measurement guide →
