OVERVIEW
The Haugen Tree Puller for Skid Steer Loaders is a high-strength vegetation-removal attachment engineered for pulling trees, brush, roots, posts, and woody vegetation directly from the ground with clean, controlled force. Designed for land-clearing professionals, contractors, farmers, ranchers, municipality crews, and property managers, this powerful tool gives your skid steer the ability to take on tree removal and root extraction tasks that would normally require chainsaws, hand tools, ropes, or dedicated forestry machinery.
Built with heavy-duty steel construction, serrated gripping jaws, and a reinforced frame, the Haugen Tree Puller delivers exceptional clamping strength and breakout force. The jaws are specifically engineered to grab trees firmly at the base, ensuring a secure hold that allows the operator to uproot trees cleanly—roots and all. This prevents unwanted regrowth, eliminates the need for stump grinding, and leaves the area clean and ready for grading, brush control, or planting.
One of the primary advantages of the Haugen Tree Puller is its ability to remove small to medium-size trees without disturbing the surrounding ground excessively. Unlike a bucket or grapple, which may dig wide holes or leave deep ruts, this attachment grips trees precisely at the stem, minimizing soil disruption and reducing cleanup time. This precision makes it valuable for clearing:
The serrated, high-strength jaws are designed to grip tightly around trees, saplings, posts, and brush without slipping. This ensures controlled pulling force, even on hardwood species or trees with fibrous, spreading root systems. The jaw spacing allows operators to pull vegetation of various sizes—from small saplings a few inches in diameter to larger, more stubborn trees depending on the skid steer’s lifting capacity and hydraulic power.
With its skid steer compatibility and universal quick-attach design, the Haugen Tree Puller is easy to mount and operate. Whether using a mid-size skid steer or a large-frame compact track loader (CTL), the attachment provides powerful pulling performance. CTLs, with their enhanced stability and traction, are especially effective when removing deeper-rooted vegetation or pulling multiple trees in rapid succession.
Beyond tree and shrub removal, the Haugen Tree Puller is extremely versatile. It can extract:
This makes it a multi-purpose tool for farm, ranch, and rural property management where invasive species and volunteer trees often take over fields and pastures.
The reinforced design of the tree puller ensures durability in demanding environments. Built with thick, welded steel plating, heavy support bars, and industrial-grade pivot points, the attachment withstands repeated clamping, twisting, and prying forces. This rugged construction is a trademark of Haugen’s USA-made equipment, trusted by professionals who rely on their attachments to perform flawlessly day after day.
Another key advantage is precision. The tree puller allows operators to pull vegetation in tight areas—around barns, fence lines, trails, and buildings—without causing excessive ground damage or needing to maneuver large machinery. This level of control is ideal for clearing around utility boxes, pipelines, property lines, and other sensitive areas where accuracy matters.
The tree puller also improves jobsite safety. Instead of workers handling chainsaws, ropes, or chains near unstable trees, the skid steer does all the gripping and pulling work from a safe distance. This reduces risk and increases productivity by letting one operator perform tasks that would normally require multiple people.
For land-clearing contractors, the Haugen Tree Puller provides an efficient method for clearing lots during construction prep. Roots are removed at the same time as the tree, preventing regrowth and reducing the need for additional equipment like stump grinders or excavators. For farmers, it helps maintain fence lines, remove volunteer growth in fields, and clear access paths. For municipalities and utility companies, it helps clear right-of-ways and overgrown ditches quickly and efficiently.
The attachment also pairs perfectly with other skid steer attachments such as grapples, stump buckets, and brush cutters. After trees are pulled, the operator can switch tools to load debris, grind stumps, or clean the site. This modular workflow is one of the major benefits of using skid steers in land-clearing operations.
In summary, the Haugen Tree Puller for Skid Steer Loaders is a powerful, versatile, and professional-grade attachment built to remove trees, shrubs, posts, and roots with precision and speed. Its serrated jaws, reinforced steel design, and reliable clamping system make it an essential tool for land-clearing tasks across agricultural, commercial, residential, and municipal applications. With its ability to remove vegetation cleanly from the ground—roots and all—the Haugen Tree Puller ensures long-term results, reduced regrowth, and a cleaner, more manageable landscape. Contractors and land owners rely on Haugen’s USA-made quality to deliver consistent, long-lasting performance in demanding environments.
