Abstract
A device is mounted to the end of a log so that a skid steer may use the log to engage a tree targeted for felling. The device includes implements configured for engaging the target tree to be felled to give the operator of the device control over the target tree. The device is structured to push the target tree over such that the root ball of the target tree rises up out of the ground as the target tree is felled and/or to allow the operator to make cuts to the target tree before the device is use to push the tree in the desired direction of fell.
