ABSTRACT:
A tree felling attachment apparatus for a farm tractor having connections for rear mounting the attachment onto the hydraulic lift arms and stabilizer bar of the tractor. The attachment includes an elongated longitudinal beam extending rearward behind the tractor that terminates at its distal end in a gripper operable between open and closed positions to receive and grip a tree trunk to be felled. In response to rearward driving of the tractor, the gripper effects felling of the tree disposed therein while enabling the tractor to remove the felled tree to a suitable disposal site.
