Got a mile or so of reasonable Height hedge to coppice out and considering our options.
there are always other jobs where shears would come in handy, we have a 7.5t and 3.5 t machine and labour to run them over the winter.
we had a 13t in with shears recently who did a great job but cost a fair bit. But a 13t has more reach and greater cutting capacity.
is. 7.5t going to be too small for much tree work? What would a new one cost, are there many used ones about worth a look? What hydraulics are needed? I’ve only got one service pair so could only open / close, not pivot, would that matter?
