I've had the bar on for several months now but hav'nt had time to do any work. Well over the past couple weekends I got some stuff done! Real happy with this Piranha.
My intention was to push it over, and was rather surprised when it cut it clean in to, did it a few more times just for the fun of it. LOL

Next time I decide to fuss with gett'n some swamp cabbage I think this will make it a little easier.

Dayum!!!!

I would like to see that in action!

Only thing that I have cut that easily is my shin! And the PTB was standing still!:eek:

Them oak and pines around here gots a little more in the hardness than the palm tree:D

What does a root ball of a palm look like?:)

Ya the oaks don't cut that easily except for maybe upto 3" dia. Depending on the pine probably 4" or so. But the bar usually grabs these and pulls them up by the roots.
The palm root ball is just that kind of a ball and not real big. Sometimes they push over real easy and sometimes they don't at all.

I’ve been fortunate to only hit my shin on mine once. ***129322;

I push pines over all the time with my bucket raised up to get leverage. Then I put the PTB under the tree and pick it up, root ball and all.
