We do a lot of tree and brushwork on our property. Cut 50-75 trees a year. We pull small trees and brush, particularly buckthorn out roots and all. We also use it to feed limbs and logs into the chipper. We use it on a 3520 JD. The hydraulic pressures affect the degree of grab. It is our favorite yard tool for the past six years, makes our life much easier. We find it very useful despite having a grapple as well.
