Small at the gate.Big in the woods.
For tight gardens and work among standing trees, we choose the Minimog according to access, ground and attachment. It fits through a garden gate, runs on rubber tracks and works with a forestry mulcher, skidding tongs or stump grinder exactly where the big loader has to stay outside.
Sound familiar?
In tree care, the work itself is rarely the problem. It gets difficult on the way to the site and with everything that has to be done by hand afterwards.
A big loader gets stuck or leaves deep ruts, so it stays in the yard. Then everything is moved on foot, and half a working day quickly becomes a whole one.
Trunks and brushwood are dragged, carried and loaded by hand. After a few days, everyone in the team feels it, and the extra hours can hardly be billed to the customer.
The tree has been felled, but the stump is still in the ground. Without your own grinder, that means a second visit with hired equipment, or the customer has to deal with it themselves.
Will the Minimog fit through your access?
The solution
The Minimog is from 915 mm wide and light enough to travel to the site on a car trailer. At the front sits a CII quick-attach mounting where you switch from mulcher to skidding tongs in a few minutes. That gives you the right tool for every job while needing only one machine.
The attachments
With these attachments, the Minimog handles the typical jobs in tree care.

On-site demonstration
If your machines keep hitting their limits, you usually don't need more people, you need the right equipment. The best way to see that is on your own ground: we bring the Minimog to you, within 150 km of Elkenroth. You decide afterwards.
Demonstration slots are limited, because every demonstration takes place on a real job.

The narrowest models are 900 mm (Derette V1000) and 915 mm (VMENG VM1000) wide. Tell us your narrowest point and we'll tell you which one fits.
Yes. You just change the attachment via the CII mounting. Which mulcher suits which machine depends on the hydraulics – we clarify that before the demonstration.
The compact models weigh 1,160 to 1,690 kg and travel on a car trailer with a suitable towing capacity.
