We have had a lot of questions about the brushcutter that we mounted on one of our drags, so here is some information - The GTB's cutter blade was purchased from Equipment Lemire, Inc. of ST-Bruno-De-Guigues, Canada. Tel # 1-819-728-3010 - You may want to have a club member with French speaking skills make the call ! Ours is a 7 Ft blade that Jim mounted on a fabricated hinge point and with a hydraulic cylinder to allow the blade to lay in over the drag. This Canadian style will cut up to 1.5" limbs Max . Pictures of our blade are below.
Mountain Grooming Equipment of Waitsfield, Vt ( Tel 1-802-496-3836 ) has an even more rugged version that will do 2.5" limbs
This style brush cutter will not trim all your trails on the first pass of the season, they are designed to slowly get rid of the " face Slappers" and small brush. Be prepared to have to clear out the drag every once in a while.
