Morton Equipment MDE Koala Tree Shears
Crafted from high-strength steel and equipped with a replaceable blade, the Koala Tree Shears have earned global acclaim. MDE's Koala range stands out with its purpose-built heavy-duty Hardox chassis, ensuring unparalleled strength, resilience, and durability compared to other tree shears in its class. These hydraulic attachments seamlessly connect to an excavator's hammer lines. A hydraulic cylinder propels the Hardox edge through the tree, cleanly shearing it with precision. Notably, this design allows for safe placement of the cut tree. MDE offers five models with varying cutting diameters in the Koala range, catering to excavators ranging from 1.5 to 40 tonnes. Years of rigorous testing and refinement have culminated in an efficient, potent, and top-tier tree-cutting attachment. Our pioneering replaceable wing-style blade sets the standard as the first of its kind on the market.
