Denis Cimaf DAH 050 - 125D Excavator Forest mulchers

[haggis]

nice recovery on that machine. And only 3000 @ 18-23gpm....nice

[DownToEarthEquipment]

Think about it for a moment. People dont buy these so they can run around randomly flattening forests. Its to clear a way for roads, buildings or houses, much like the one you live in. Going in with bulldozers harms the terrain & root systems of other trees that are left standing so this is a much better way of clearing. They are also used for making fire breaks to save houses and peoples lives. Thats why people use these.

hey, wait a second

why let this monster destroy our forests in such a freak way?

[24pointbuck]

Damn! That would be perfect for cuttin shooting lanes in bow season

[HammerinHenslee]

i live up in alaska and my freinds brother does it for a living making a ton of money, except his mulcher is on a bulldozer set up. he said you could go 10 miles an hour through a field of cotton woods and turn them to compost without slowing down.

Damn I wish it was my job to run that machine!

[Petermax99]

This is pretty good video I like machines of all sizes

[DownToEarthEquipment]

And wild fires through over-run forests that kill everything in their path are a good thing?

[futurhumen]

Yes acutally forest fires are sometimes very good for overgrown forests. They allow for the native, more suitable species of vegetation to flourish and establish.

[DownToEarthEquipment]

I agree with that too, its the human toll that is devestating with forest fires.

[wetwillydude]

its a chainsaw n chipper in one... great idea....

[dozerdriver1962]

seems like the recovery is a little slow what is the pump flow on that hoe?

[DownToEarthEquipment]

This footage was given to me by the manufacturer so unfortunately I cannot help you with that info.

[eastcoastriots]

now that is BADASS, I would love to run one of those all day!

[Bretty135]

It is quicker with a chainsaw and a wood chipper.

[DownToEarthEquipment]

With a chainsaw & wood chipper, you have to cut down the tree and get a skid steer to feed it into the chipper. The excavator will do everything in one motion.

[Bretty135]

"get a skid steer to feed it into the chipper"

Look at those trees, you could pick them up single handed, why would you need a skid steer for them?

[DownToEarthEquipment]

Thats a valid point, but you dont buy a Denis Cimaf to do 10 trees & then go home. When you have a large area to clear, something that takes a few days, you wont get every tree small enough to feed by hand, plus when fatigue sets in, you will get slower & slower. Even the small Denis Cimaf shown here can do material 150mm wide, there is no way you could feed a tree 15m long & 150mm wide into a chipper by hand and its much safer feeding it with a skid steer.

At 1.50 the operator comes awfully close to stalling the head! Nice bit of gear

[spudgegil]

thats a fierce bit of kit. we use a brand called osma for heavy duty clearance along railway lines and another make called berti for medium duty clearance

[DownToEarthEquipment]

The Dennis Cimaf are not the cheapest units out there but you will hard pressed finding better. You really do get what you pay for and these units rock.
