ABSTRACT:
Tree planter including a truck having a digger mounted to a boom on a hoist on a frame of the truck, and a trailer which can be towed by the truck and including a plurality of cone-shaped containers axially mounted on horizontal pivots. The digger on the boom of the truck includes four hydraulic cylinders for positioning the digger with all degrees of radial and axial freedom with respect to the truck. The digger per se includes six hydraulic cylinders, one hydraulic cylinder for each of four spades and two hydraulic cylinders to open the rear spades around the tree when either digging or planting a tree from either the ground or one of the cone-shaped containers. The trailer can include a plurality of paired cone-shaped containers with the containers being tiltable either singularly or in pairs. While the digger on the truck and the trailer are intended for use in a combination, the digger or the trailer can be used solely independent of each other.
