Forestry work is where skid steers earn their keep. Show up packing a few carefully selected attachments, and your rig will chop, rip, mow, and haul through terrain that chews up lesser equipment.
If you’re deep in the woods or reclaiming overgrown acres, you need tools that aren’t going to quit when they hit a root or stump. These seven forestry skid steer attachments from Prime are built for operators who go big (and don’t go home).
1. Direct Drive Brush Cutter
 |
Tough brush? Meet tougher steel. The Direct Drive Brush Cutter slices through thick grass, saplings, bushes, and scrub like a saw blade through butter. Its high-torque motor and heavy flywheel keep blades spinning hard even when tangled in undergrowth. Perfect for pasture cleanup or taming overgrown trails. Just don’t get sentimental about those bushes…they won’t be around long.

2. Forestry Grapple
 |
Logs, limbs, or full trunks — the Forestry Grapple grabs and hauls them all. Dual independent clamshell jaws clamp uneven loads tightly, so you can move debris or feed the chipper with no fear of losing grip. The reinforced tines and cylinder guards take on abuse from dense wood and rocky ground. They don’t bend out of shape while stacking heavy timber. When your day involves hauling chaos, this is your control system.

3. Stump Bucket Grapple
 |
Oh, you wanted a stump bucket? Let me raise you one stump bucket grapple. Every seasoned operator has faced the monster rootball that refuses to come out. The Stump Bucket Grapple was made for that fight. Its serrated teeth bite deep into the soil to pry out stubborn stumps and rocks. The grapple arm locks on to keep them secure. It’s the definition of overbuilt, and that’s exactly why you’ll love it.

4. Rock & Stump Ripper
 |
When roots, concrete, or frost lines get in your way, the Rock & Stump Ripper drives straight through. Its single heavy shank focuses your skid steer’s full hydraulic force on one brutal point. You’ll have no trouble breaking up compacted soil or splitting root systems before extraction. It’s the perfect pre-treatment before bringing in your stump bucket or grapple for cleanup!
|
5. Tree & Post Puller
 |
Fence lines and saplings don’t stand a chance against the Tree & Post Puller. The serrated jaw design grips tight and yanks out trees, fence posts, poles, and brush. Do it in less time with more power and you’ll see less soil disturbance. It’s your go-to for pasture restoration or removing invasive growth. Just line up, clamp down, and pull.
|
6. Log Splitter
 |
The cutting and hauling are done. It’s time to turn that wood into usable stock. The Log Splitter connects directly to your skid steer’s hydraulics for high-torque splitting with minimal effort. You can split right on site and not worry about extra hauling or handwork. It’s fast, safe, and brutally efficient — everything you’d expect from a Prime log splitter!
|
7. Land Leveler
 |
Forestry work doesn’t end when the debris is gone. The Land Leveler smooths and grades your terrain so it’s ready for new growth, fencing, or replanting. Adjustable cutting edges make short work of rough ground and leftover ruts. Once you’ve cleared the forest, this is the tool that makes it look like you meant to.
