Horticulture · Orchards

Mulch, compost, prunings and trellis posts between rows, without compacting wet ground.

Short answer

In orchards, the STAG Beetle 100 can spread mulch and compost under trees, clear prunings with a grapple and set trellis posts with an auger. Wide tracks lower ground pressure on wet row middles. Check the weight of a full harvest bin against its rated capacity of about 1,090 lb before using it for bin handling.

Jobs it fits

Spread mulch and compost along tree rows. Clear brush and prunings with a grapple. Drill post holes for high-density trellis systems. Clean up around packing sheds.

Tracks and soil

Swap to wide tracks for soft ground. STAG says wide and narrow tracks swap without undercarriage adjustment.

Power in the field

Plan the day around an 8-hour battery and charge overnight at the shop. STAG says a jobsite generator can also charge it.
