Is the Limb Reaper compatible with my excavator?

Recommended excavator size

The Limb Reaper is best suited for:

  • 8 to 10 ton excavators
  • Approximately 18,000 to 20,000 lb operating weight

Machines in this range provide the required stability, hydraulic flow, and cooling capacity to safely operate a saw-equipped attachment.

Compatible excavator examples

  • John Deere 85
  • Hyundai HX85 or HX90
  • Kubota KX080
  • CAT 308 or CAT 309

Not recommended for smaller machines

For smaller machines, Rotobec recommends the Mini PC018 Grapple, which is designed to match lower machine capacities without saw operation

  • Improving efficiency in tree care, land clearing, and disaster cleanup

When paired with the right excavator, the Rotobec Limb Reaper delivers precise cutting, improved productivity, and the durability Rotobec is known for.
