The mechanical felling wedge TR24 is used in logging as a replacement for strenuous wedge
work or as an alternative to the hydraulic felling wedge.
Advantages over classic wedge work:

vibration-free wedging
-
“toppling” the tree is ergonomically cheap and easy on the joints
Advantages over hydraulic felling wedges:
-
light weight
-
easy maintenance
-
good ergonomics with telescopic ratchet
This device does not replace wire ropes and winches. Only use it if you believe that the tree
could be felled with classic wedges. Do not try to fell trees with the mechanical felling wedge
that have a pronounced side or back lean in order to avoid overloading the device. Make
sure you are familiar with this device before you use it.
If the mechanical felling wedge is
not used as intended
overloaded
not or poorly maintained
the manufacturer will assume no liability for damages incurred.
