100DL

Our Largest Loader Mounted Tree Spade

The Model 100DL Loader Mount is the largest and most durable production digger available anywhere. Made to move trees up to 14" in diameter and a rootball of 100" in diameter in rugged conditions!

Meet the 100DL

The 100DL Loader Mounted Tree Spade comes standard with an electric valve bank, wireless remote, and blank attaching plate to mount to your host vehicle.

Wireless or Cabled Remote Controls

Control your skid steer tree spade with ease inside the skid steer with cabled controls or from anywhere with a wireless remote that allows for easy operation.

Internal Leveling Pads

Correct for trees that have a natural tilt with internal leveling pads that allow you to adjust the spade’s digging position before relocating the tree to its final destination

Heavy Duty Gate Hinges

Gate hinges designed for stressful conditions, our skid steer spades feature heavy duty gate hinges that beat the competition for longevity.

Heavy Duty Blade Edges

Our blade edges are the toughest in the business, cutting through not only tough root systems but allowing you to dig in tough soil conditions. Dig in just about any conditions with ease and minimal annual maintenance.

Easy to Use and Maintain

Anyone can learn how to operate a BIG JOHN spade with minimal instruction and successfully dig a tree in a matter of minutes. Maintenance requirements are simple, quick, and affordable with a minimal time commitment to keep your spade at peak performance.

Durable Slide Blocks

Made with top grade plastics for heavy duty use, our slide blocks dig for thousands of tree moves with ease and simplicity. Fewer moving parts, no bolts to rust, and no small plastic parts to keep track of make the simple design of BIG JOHN spades last decades longer.

Climbable Towers

Our towers are designed with steps along the inside of the spade to give canopy access during a dig instead of only after the dig when the tree is lowered to the deck.
