Altec – Supplying All Your Tree Care Needs
Altec is traditionally known as a manufacturer of equipment that supports the electric utility industry, but over the past several years, we have expanded our offerings to support the tree care industry in various ways. From companies that maintain and manage our nation’s right of way to small lawn care businesses providing landscape maintenance, Altec is a one stop shop for a wide range of tree care and spray work applications.
In introducing the Heartland product line, Altec is poised once again to become the industry leader, offering a solution that allows tree takedowns to take place with increased safety and efficiency. This product line consists of an Effer knuckle boom (articulating) crane, a 360-degree continuous-rotation grapple saw (33-inch jaw opening, 14-inch cutting depth, 3,300-pound maximum lift capacity) and radio remote controls. These units were designed to allow operators to cut limbs and branches without ever having to leave the ground or touch a piece of the tree. The EC225-6S-FG model provides an additional seven feet of cutting height and has a rear-mounted configuration, allowing operators to set-up 10 to 12 feet closer to the tree.
If you aren’t familiar with this game-changing product, don’t just take our word for it — take a minute and watch this testimonial from Lance Wallace at Wallace Tree and Landscape and decide for yourself.
