ABSTRACT:
A tree cutter mechanism adapted for mounting on a suitable vehicle includes a frame defining a U-shaped opening for embracing a standing tree, a rotating auger cutter slidably mounted on the frame for selective linear movement across the U-shaped opening to sever trees disposed therein, and a tree drive mechanism mounted on said frame for holding a standing tree for cutting by the auger cutter. A ribbed plate is provided behind the rotatable auger for sliding movement in concert therewith to prevent binding of the auger as it moves through the tree.
