The Side Trimmer is a rear-hinged attachment designed for high-performance string mulching around tree trunks, root zones, and vine-covered trunks. Compared to conventional side trimmers, which rely on passive systems, the Slopehelper Side Trimmer offers much gentler suspension with minimal force, only a couple of kilos, making it incredibly careful with mature tree trunks and significantly minimizing the risk of damage. The system features a rotating drum with strings, mounted on a suspended head with an innovative touch bumper, ensuring optimal precision and safety during mulching operations. Fully Electric Operation – No Hydraulic Actuation for Precision Mulching icon The Slopehelper Side Trimmer is a fully electric attachment, delivering consistent performance, precision, and efficiency without relying on hydraulic actuation. Unlike conventional systems, all functions are powered by electromechanical and mechatronic solutions with brushless motors, completely eliminating the need for hydraulic oil and actuators. This cutting-edge electric-driven design offers several key advantages: •No hydraulic leaks – Reduces environmental risks and maintenance costs. •Lower maintenance requirements – Fewer mechanical components prone to wear and tear. •Gentle and precise operation – The actuated head smoothly adapts to tree trunks, ensuring damage-free mulching around root areas. •Efficient movement in plantation passages – Seamless operation, even in dense tree rows.
