For anyone interested, here are a few photos of a brush cutter on a Tucker Terra Cat. I built this with the help of P. Atkinson for our local snowmobile club two years ago in the December of 2004. It is driven by hydraulics from the Tucker and a twelve volt solenoid valve with two electric switches to change the direction of the hydraulic cylinder and the cutter. It cycles about 75 cuts per minute and will cut hardwood limbs up to 1-1/2" dia. This cutter has saved myself and the rest of the volunteers many hours of trimming on our 90 miles of snowmobile trail. The Tucker will go in wet areas where a farm tractor type mower will not go. There are many improvements that could be made to this cutter, but it is a lot better than a chain saw or brush cutters.
