Finger Hedge Trimmer.png
Hi,
I'm considering getting a Finger Hedge Trimmer for my Volvo EC15BXR. Has anybody fitted one to their mini digger? I have the peddle and hydraulics on the arm so thought I could link up with that.
What was the effect? For example, due to hydraulic use, was the arm useage affected, track movement zero?
The ECB15XR has a hydraulic pump flow capacity 32L/min and the Trimmer has a requirement of 25-27L/min
I know a bracket, pipes etc will be needed on the Chinese produced Hedge Trimmer. I'd like to hear from anyone who has fitted and used a Finger Hedge Trimmer please.
The other day I used my Stihl hedge cutter attatched to the arm of my digger (yes I know , wild) , via a home made bracket. What I found was, I didn't trash the hedge in the same way as with a tractor based hedge cutter. With the digger I moved forward to a position and stopped, I then proceeded to cut the hedge to the reach of the excavator arm and stop, move position and repeat. I found it less stressful than with a tractor hedge trasher. I could also be far more definitive in what I cut and between what was spared.
If anyone has input , please contribute.
