From much reading on this forum I have just about decided to purchase a BXpanded Piranha tooth blade. I am pretty convinced I should get it for the MX4800 rather than the BX2660 not so much for the power behind it but the weight. I have watched the videos on the BX’s and there seems to be a lot of wheel spinning and back and forth before the brush lets go. My MX4800 is heavy, filled tires and either the back hoe or my 750 lb back blade would be on the stern.
For those with experience with them, I have attached a few photos of what I hope to clear with it. LOTS of black berries which should not be a problem, but I also have a lot of 1 to 4 inch alder saplings. Do you think the Piranha Tooth can deal with these? Would I first cut them down then take up the roots with the blade or attack them as they stand?
I will be falling the larger ones, (4" and above).
I could get in there with my back hoe and tear them up, then hit them with the blade. I have zero experience with a toothed blade.
Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.
