Brush Removal

The City of St. Augustine, FL, utilizes Petersen's TL-3 to load brush.

The Petersen Lightning Loader® grapple truck was originally developed for brush and trash collection. Our boom and bucket were specially designed so as to avoid snaggs on branches. An example of this precaution can be seen in our single cylinder bucket. Because the bucket opens, closes, and rotates using only one cylinder, there is no need for hoses below the bucket rotator...making for a much cleaner bucket design. It's these little details that keep your unit on the route working instead of sitting in the shop.

Winston, an operator in Sebring, FL, uses his TL-3 to remove residential brush.
