The right tools can be a Landscaper’s best friend and are often an extension of the user’s hand. Due to increased demand for fuel modification for the communities we serve, Mission Landscape has been looking for the right tool to speed up a very tedious task.
Fuel modification is the removal of vegetation that is more likely to increase wildfire risk and in efforts to reduce that risk and endangerment to surrounding homes, guidelines have been put in place by local fire authorities. By removing potential fire risks, we can create defensible spaces to be replaced by more suitable vegetation. This can be a time-consuming, yet necessary process. However, with the correct tools, there are ways to speed up the process.
Typically brush is cut back from homes using chainsaws and hand cutters. While effective, this process costs time and manpower to complete large work areas that can cover acres of land. Also, this process puts some workers at risk depending on the location of the vegetation removal.
Technology has come a long way in the Landscaping industry, allowing the process of fuel modification to run quicker and more efficiently. The Remote Control Land Clearing machine is one tool in our arsenal to meet the needs of a growing service. The machine is capable of removing as much brush as a complete crew in a fraction of the time. Now, one crew member can safely guide the machine up slopes up to angles of 45 degrees with the push of a button, allowing Mission to save in time and money all while keeping our staff safer.
The right tools like the Land Clearing machine can help keep Mission Landscape’s job sites and clients stay safe from various problems. Contact Mission Landscape to discover if Fuel Modification can benefit your community.
