Excavator Rotating Shears

Built for Efficiency in the Forest

Intermercato’s harvesting shears were originally launched in Europe and have since proven to boost productivity overnight in small-scale forestry operations.

Perfect for:

  • Thinning & timber harvesting
  • Tree pruning & orchard limb removal
  • Trimming & de-limbing
  • Forestry, farm, and council applications
  • Avocado & macadamia tree maintenance

Key Design Features

Fixed Knife Design

  • Simple, robust system with minimal moving parts
  • Designed for long life with low maintenance
  • Perfect for operators who value reliability in the field

Head Bracket - Aussie Made

  • Bolt-on, flat for tilt hitch or angled for upright tree/pole handling

Massive Biting Force

  • Reinforced grapple body with oversized hydraulic rams
  • Delivers exceptional shearing power with every cut
  • Ideal for removing limbs, and dense vegetation

Upgraded for Australian Conditions

  • Equipped with double bevel Swedish HARDOX® 450 blades
  • Precision engineered for clean, effective cutting
  • Removable blade allows full use as an accumulating grapple — doubling its jobsite value

Dual Functionality: Shear + Accumulating Grapple
On the R Model, the blade can be quickly unbolted, converting the shear into a powerful hydraulic grapple. Perfect for:

  • Gathering multiple limbs or trunks
  • Stacking material for chippers
  • Reducing time on site by combining two tools in one

Smart, Simple, Forestry-Proven

  • Minimal wear parts = reduced downtime
  • Designed for 3-30 tonne excavators
  • Ideal for precision work in tight access areas
  • Durable enough for daily use in forestry and farm settings
  • Compatible with Intermercato worm-drive rotators for added precision and 360° positioning

360° Worm Drive Rotator

  • Endless rotation – feed chippers or rotate loads without moving the excavator
  • NSL (Non-Self-Locking) protects worm gear in high-stress applications
  • Brake holds load at any angle
  • Low-profile design keeps the center of gravity tight
  • Balanced torque and speed ensure long operating life

The Power of the Worm Drive

Ideal for:

  • Vertical pole placement
  • Chainsaw or shear work
  • Holding limbs upright before controlled release
  • Forestry tasks where load security and accuracy are critical
  • Every rotator in the WD series uses high-strength steel gears, offering reliable operation under shifting forces — with low speed for pinpoint precision and maximum torque.
