Here's a picture of my latest toy acquisition, oops...Tool, I mean ;), for my LS 4041H. I received the Hy-Reach Tree Trimmer attachment last Tuesday and was able to work with it a few hours on Saturday. I'm really impressed with this attachment and how easy it was learn to cut with it. But I found out real quick that I really needed to have a counterweight on the tractor's rear to offset the heavy cutting head sitting 6 ft in front of the loader arms. The rear end got VERY light a few times...:eek: So I hooked up my box blade and strapped on some extra weight (30 gallons of water in blue barrel) to take care of the problem.

This clipper turned my LS into a real cedar chopping machine:dance1:!

Pretty cool! Does it rotate so that you can trim/limb standing trees?
I have a 1800# ballast box on the back of my 4041 and it works real good.

Yes, it can rotate 90 degrees for branch trimming. It came with a electrically operated hydraulic switch that allows me to rotate the blade from the cab of the tractor.
