AVANT Attachments for Tree Care

September 9, 2021 by Nick Williams

Tree care companies and arborists across the United States are turning to Avant as an effective time-saving solution to their business. From residential and commercial to public-sector clients, Avant makes light work of cutting and pruning branches, removing dead or excess trees, stump grinding, tree removal, and chipping. Avant is also a useful tool for transplanting, insect control, and other related services. With its high lifting capacity and agile maneuverability, the Avant is powerful enough to lift heavy logs, yet compact enough to fit in tight nooks, small yards, and narrow pathways. There is no need to repair ruts or replant grass on the Jobsite once the work is complete as the Avant leaves minimal ground disturbance on the most delicate surfaces.

Arborists and tree care companies not only save time and money servicing their customers with the Avant – with over 200 attachments to select from, Avant can efficiently and easily tackle every job.

1. Winch

The Avant hydraulic winch enables towing of all kinds of objects (e.g. logs, poles, boats) from places where you cannot drive with the machine. The winch is equipped with a safety net, 100 feet of cable, and a towing hitch. It is powered by a powerful hydraulic motor and mounts on Avant’s quick attach plate.

2. Tree shear


Avant tree shear is an efficient and useful tree cutter, intended for forest thinning, tree clearance, and similar jobs where smaller trees need to be cut. The strong grapple takes a firm grip of the tree trunk and a hydraulic cylinder pushes the cutting blade against the trunk and cuts it.

3. Log grab heavy duty


A strong log grab for customers who need to move tree trunks, logs, etc. often. The grab takes a firm grip on the wood and the lower tines are also better formed for grabbing bigger tree trunks.

4. Log grab


The Avant log grab mounts on the Avant pallet fork. With the log grab, you can lift and transport single logs or smaller timber bundles. The grab is equipped with a powerful hydraulic cylinder and can therefore also lift bigger stones, as well as branches, fence poles, and similar objects.

6. Stump grinder


Avant stump grinder is an efficient and easy to operate tree stump remover. The cutting disc is mounted crosswise in relation to the loader, which means it throws the wood waste to the right side – the waste doesn’t fly on the operator or the loader.

7. Root grapple


The root grapple is widely used in the tree industry, and it works also in other jobs where different types of debris need to be handled. It is equipped with the same grapples as the demolition grapple buckets, but the bottom part is made of strong steel bars.

8. Timber grab heavy duty


The heavy-duty timber grab is equipped with a stronger boom and hydraulic rotator and larger grapple. It is intended especially for Avant 700 and 800 series.

The arborist kit which mounts on the boom is also a standard feature.

When cutting a tree you can push the tree down with it if necessary, instead of pushing by hand. It is also possible to attach a rope to the bracket on the kit, which enables towing the logs by pulling them with the loader.

GRIP AREA 2.15 ft2
WEIGHT 620 lb
PRODUCT NO. A438973
