Slanetrac HC180 Excavator Cutter Bar Attachment

The Slanetrac HC180 Cutter Bar (also known as a “Sickle Bar”) attachment suits small and medium sized excavators from 3.5T – 8T.

Reciprocating blades produce a clean and precise cut, ideal for trimming hedges, fruit trees, and other aesthetic bushes. The blades are sharpened and have guiding steel fingers which direct branches into the cutting area, allowing the operator to achieve a neat finish with ease. This attachment is able to cut up to 40mm thick branches.

With a simple and robust design, this cutter bar is very low maintenance.

The Slanetrac HC180 is supplied with an adjustable hitch utilizing the Slanetrac “star-spine”, which allows 360 degree rotation of the attachment in line with the excavator arm. This enables the operator to cut on unusual angles.

You can further improve the versatility of the attachment with accessories including the HC-E1 one meter extension and 360 swivel joint, allowing the operator to reach the far side of the hedge.

The bar is 1800mm wide. Also available in 1500mm see: Slanetrac HC150
