Forestry & Arboriculture

Transform Arboriculture Ltd

A powerful forestry-spec solution delivered for safe and efficient mechanised tree dismantling. Locators supplied the Manitou MRT 2660 Vision+ paired with the Westtech CS750 Smart Woodcracker to boost safety, speed and precision on this specialist project.

What We Provided

THE REASON BEHIND THE SOLUTION

The client needed a safer, faster way to carry out tree dismantling — work that traditionally involves climbing and exposes operatives to significant risk. The brief called for a single machine setup that could replace multiple dedicated units and reach into confined woodland areas.

The Manitou MRT 2660 Vision+ rotating telehandler was paired with a Westtech CS750 Smart Woodcracker attachment. The combination delivers full 360-degree rotation, remote-operated cutting from the cab, and the reach to access tight spaces without repositioning the machine.

The result was a major step-change in safety and productivity — fewer machines on site, reduced climbing work, and significantly shorter job times while staying fully compliant with industry safety standards.

Project FAQs

WHY WAS THE MRT 2660 VISION+ CHOSEN FOR THIS PROJECT?

Its forestry specification offers 360 degree rotation, high lifting capacity and reinforced protection. Combined with the Westtech CS750, it allows safe and precise mechanised tree dismantling.

HOW DOES THE WOODCRACKER CS750 IMPROVE SAFETY?

The grapple saw eliminates the need for climbers. The operator can dismantle trees via remote control while remaining at a safe distance from hazards.

CAN THIS MACHINE SETUP REPLACE MULTIPLE UNITS?

Yes. It combines the capabilities of a telehandler, crane and aerial platform — reducing labour requirements and eliminating the need for several dedicated machines.

IS THE EQUIPMENT SUITABLE FOR URBAN OR CONFINED SITES?

Absolutely. With 360 degree rotation and strong outreach, it works efficiently in tight spaces and sensitive environments.

DOES THIS CONFIGURATION COMPLY WITH INDUSTRY SAFETY STANDARDS?

Yes. The setup is fully homologated, equipped with ROPS/FOPS protection, and designed specifically to meet leading safety standards for mechanised forestry work and complies with FISA 608 guidance note.
