FAQ’S

The HPX8 is built for 5–6 ton compact hydraulic excavators.

Up to 8 inches (20 cm).

Yes. Each HPX shear uses grapples to maintain control of the tree so the operator can place it safely. The HPX8 has a single grapple configuration.

It depends on the model and whether you have rotation. Generally, the range for HPX8 is 10–20 GPM, max 3,000 PSI (single circuit).

HPX8 rotation systems are an option, depending on your machine type and configuration. Contact the Dymax Inc sales team for more information.
