OPTIMAL 3000

When we say big we mean it. The OPTIMAL 3000 amazes by the sheer size of trees it moves. With a rootball of 118" diameter and 53" depth, this spade marks a new era in tree transplanting. The design is unusual. The lift arms are mounted on a turntable which can rotate 360o, thus being capable of digging trees on either side of the truck as well as at the rear. The turntable slides fore and aft. With these extra movements you can reach those trees which have to be moved from the most inconvenient locations. Digging is done by two scoop-shaped spades, forming a hemisphere. The complete unit, mounted on a truck with 5 axles, is a masterpiece of compactness: 35' overall length, 12'10" total height, and 9' width. With this spade you are way, way ahead of the pack.

The operator has this awesome power on the tips of his fingers. The OPTIMAL 3000 is radio controlled! The operator wears the controls on a belt around his waist, so there are no hoses or cables to prevent his free movement anywhere around the tree to ensure an excellent move.
