TMK 300

COLLECTOR

The collector increases the productivity of the shear significantly. Collector works automatically with open-close motion all the way to the point where the bunch is dropped. When the shear is closed, the collector opens up to the other side of the trees, and when the shear is opened again, the collector first grabs the trees firmly in its grip. This way the trees stay all the time firmly in hand. Only when the bunch is dropped, one electric line is needed to let the bunch go from the grip. Collectors simple operation enables fast and comfortable working. Thanks to its high productivity, the collector is TMKs most popular attachment worldwide. NEW! Collector is now available also without electricity! Ask more from your local dealer, or directly from TMK.

DELIMBER

Delimbing gives the last touch to the tree clearing as well as the TMK 300 attachment package. TMK has the first easily controllable delimber on the market without expensive feeding systems. Delimbing is smooth thanks to the diamond shaped delimber hole. This shape gives the shear a little room to tilt before snapping the tree with the blade. This way ensures a fast and smooth motion, when the delimbing is fast and more importantly easy. In the nordic countries the delimber is really common attachment because of the demand of stripped trees. Delimber is also possible to use without electricity, and delimber is also easy to retrofit.

HYDRAULIC EXTENSION BEAM

Hydraulic extension beam is the professionals choice. Attached to the quick hitch, the hydraulic extension produces the much needed extra reach to the professionals, without sacrificing the agility. Extension beam is about 2 meters (6,6 ft) long and extends another 1,6 meters (5,2 ft). With hydraulic extension beam it’s possible to get 3,6 meters (11,8 ft) of extra reach depending on the place of the bracket. Using the extension is simple and going back to excavation jobs is fast and easy. In the designing process of the beam we’ve kept in mind the needed features at forest thinnings and clearences, and the machine fits to turn even in the tightest of places with the extension on. The heel of the extension is strengthened and can be used to help the excavator to move in challenging places.

SOLID EXTENSION BEAM

TMK 300 can be equipped with solid extension beam. Bolt attached plates enables the beam to be taken off easily, if it doesn’t suit the job at hand. Extension is a good fit especially with delimber, as it makes the motion faster and smoother thanks to longer reach.

LINKAGE

TMKs Linkage brings more speed and versatility to TMK Tree Shears use. Linkage was originally designed to speed up the working with hydraulic extension beam, but now it enables the shear to be used in machines that doesn’t have a feature to tilt the shear up and down. Now we can offer a solution to use the shear with tractor cranes and harvesters. Linkage tilts 165 degrees, which ensures wide movements and small enough cylinder keep the motion fast. Linkage is attached to the shear with bolts, so it can be taken off quickly and used again on a different machine when needed. NEW! In cooperation with Palfinger we made a linkage that is fits directly to all EPSOLUTION series cranes! Ask more from your local dealer, or directly from TMK.

EXTRA PLATES

Brackets are on bolt-on extra plates, this makes it possible to use the shear with multiple machines.

SPLITTING BLADE

With the splitting blade you can finalize the trees cut with the shear, without unnecessary hassle. The splitting blade attaches to the side of the shear with three bolts. Splitting blade works best with the bolt-on-blade models, when you can also load or move the trees with the same shear.

HEEL

With the heel you get more support and reliability to the shear when moving in any terrain. You can safely take support with it, no matter the size of the machine. The heel attaches to the backside of the shear with bolts offering good support point when moving with the machine.

CYLINDER OPTIONS

TMK 200 can be equipped with different cylinder options.

1. Normal main cylinder, recommended pressure 280 Bars.
2. Bigger main cylinder, recommended pressure 220 Bars.
3. TMK Turbo is patented telescopic cylinder, where the smaller cylinder works always first, keeping the motion fast. When the smaller cylinder runs out of power, the bigger cylinder starts working automatically. This way we get really fast motion without sacrificing the strength at all.
4. HD Cylinder, recommended pressure 200-220 bars.

TMK Turbos’ recommended pressure is 220 Bars. TMK Turbo and bigger main cylinder are excellent choices when working with tilt rotators, when the reduced pressure doesn’t affect the maximum cutting capability. TMK Turbo grows your work efficiency up to 15%!

TILT

Do you want to cut over hanging branches? Or just operate in unlevel terrain and want to leave the stump as low as possible? Or need a little bit more agility to stack the trees neatly? The tilting unit is just the feature for you. The tilt fits both TMK 300 and TMK 400 and is robust enough to withstand the challenges of hard work in the forest. Tilting unit tilts 90° both ways, so it’s a great tool to cut down over hanging branches, but it also gives more agility to operating the shear and moving the cut down timber. Tilt can be controlled with a separate hydraulic line, or with the same line as the shear with the help of a 6/2 electric valve.
