Need to move a tree? Opt for maximum control with a tree grabber from Zijtveld.

Moving trees and tree trunks safely and efficiently requires specialized equipment. In forestry, landscaping, and urban green space management, control over the load is essential. With a Zijtveld tree grab, you are choosing grip, reliability, and maximum control during every lifting and moving operation.

Zijtveld's tree grapples have been developed for professionals who work with heavy timber, trees, and logs on a daily basis and who need to be able to rely on their equipment—under all circumstances.

Tree grabber with 360° rotation for maximum flexibility

Our tree grapples with slewing rings offer maximum freedom of movement during work. Thanks to full 360° hydraulic rotation, you can position trees and logs accurately, even in confined spaces or complex working situations.

The grapples are constructed from wear-resistant Hardox steel, making them resistant to intensive use in forestry, nature conservation, and landscaping projects. The robust slewing ring system helps keep the grease clean and reduces wear during prolonged use.

Starting with model S804-B, dual cylinders and hydraulic motors ensure optimal power distribution. This keeps the power evenly distributed across the grab, ensuring stable and controlled operation.

The result: a powerful tree grabber that does what it's supposed to do—without unnecessary complexity.

Additional safety with optional load-holding function

For added safety, the tree grabber can be equipped with an optional load-holding function.

This feature ensures that the load remains securely held without the need to continuously apply force to the lever. This increases safety for the operator and the surrounding area and ensures more accurate work.

In the event of pressure loss in the hydraulic system—for example, due to a hose rupture or malfunction—the load-holding function prevents the grab from opening grab . The valve retains the oil in the system, keeping the grab until the operator deliberately opens it.

Developed for practical use

Zijtveld's tree grapples have been developed in collaboration with professionals in the field, including landscapers, forestry specialists, and crane operators.

· That's why you can count on a tree grabber that:

· Easy and logical to operate

· Performs reliably under varying conditions

· Withstands heavy and prolonged loads

· Suitable for intensive daily use
