Clearing Rake – Woodcracker G1250

Engineering and Design: Extreme Durability in Hardox® Built under the “engineering for the woods” principle, the Woodcracker G1250 is manufactured entirely from high-strength Hardox® steel. To ensure superior durability in humid or harsh environments, the entire structure undergoes a KTL (cathodic dip-priming) treatment and powder coating, offering industrial-grade corrosion protection. The ergonomic finger design enables optimal ground penetration with minimal wear.  

Performance and Handling: Massive Range of Motion The standout feature of the G1250 is its toggle lever system, which generates an exceptionally wide range of motion. Thanks to its optimized shape, this rake can grab and handle massive volumes of material in every cycle, greatly facilitating biomass supply to chippers. The gripper fingers feature a special control system that allows them to adapt individually to the collected material, ensuring a firm hold on irregular harvest residues and slash.

Finish and Versatility: Total Ground Clearing To maximize profitability on every site, the G1250 offers exceptional modularity. It can be optionally equipped with a “fine rake” (fine-mesh rake), ideal for thorough and extensive soil cleaning after timber extraction. Furthermore, the equipment is available with or without gripper fingers, precisely adapting to the material handling needs of every forestry contractor.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What kind of maintenance does the Woodcracker G1250 require? The equipment is designed for low maintenance and low wear. Thanks to the Hardox® steel and high-quality components, technical   downtime is minimal, focusing mainly on checking standard grease points.  

2. How do the fingers behave with different-sized materials? The gripper fingers adapt individually to the material. This allows for a firm hold on everything from fine branches to bulky root stumps in a single operation.

3. Is it possible to clear small debris from the ground with this rake? Yes. For deep and extensive forest floor cleaning, we recommend installing the optional fine rake attachment, which easily couples to the Woodcracker G series.

4. Can I use it for material handling as well as clearing? Absolutely. The G1250 can also be used as a powerful handling grapple, proving highly efficient for organizing biomass piles or feeding downstream processing machinery.

5. Is it compatible with my 18-ton excavator? Yes, the G1250 is specifically optimized for carrier machines in the 15 to 22-ton range, making full use of their hydraulic power.
