Hypro - Model FG45 - Felling Grapple/Energy Felling Grapple
From Felling Grapple
The HYPRO FG45 felling grapple is ideal for use in the handling of both standing and felled trees. The felling grapple can be mounted on just about any crane with a rotator. The felling grapple can be used to fell normal-height standing trees with a max. diameter of 30–35 cm, and in favourable conditions it has a cutting capacity for trees with enlarged root bulbs and stunted trees of as much as 45 cm in diameter, which makes it entirely unique in terms of function for its low weight and size.

Product Details
The FG45 is also available in an energy grapple model. This version is equipped with a special bar that allows the felling of coppiced growth and trees with coarse trunks of up to 35 cm.
The FG45 has a tilt function that automatically tilts the grapple into its felling position when it is fully open. This can be overridden by activating the saw, which causes the grapple to return to its horizontal working mode.
The crane’s valve need to be equipped with an extra valve section - an additional function for activating the saw motor. This must be a motor slide type which is open directly to tank in its neutral position.
The versatility of the felling grapple and its hydraulic tilting joint mean that it is easy to get to the tree trunks – and at the right felling angle. This makes the felling operation both simple and very efficient. Its low weight also makes it ideal for use on cranes with a very long reach without negatively affecting stability.
