Silviculture is an important part of sustainable forest management and reliable equipment is needed for its success. Cutting Edge, the supplier of Husqvarna products in Zimbabwe, knows the value of using high-quality forestry equipment and machinery. We have the right tools for silviculture – which will make the process more efficient and ergonomic.

Silviculture is the cultivation and management of forests to ensure their long-term health and productivity. It entails strategic planning, execution and oversight of numerous tasks, such as tree planting, trimming, thinning and harvesting. Silviculture encourages sustainable forest development, biodiversity and the production of both timber and non-timber forest products.

Husqvarna is commitment to improving silviculture

Husqvarna has established a great name in the forestry industry, both in Zimbabwe and abroad. With over three centuries of history, the company has become a global leader in the development of chainsaws and new silviculture products. Husqvarna’s commitment to quality and dependability has made it a popular choice among industry professionals.

Cutting Edge supplies a diverse range of Husqvarna products that are appropriate for a variety of silviculture applications. Some these key products are:

  • Husqvarna chainsaws – These are known for their power, durability and performance. They are equipped with innovative features such as X-Torq® engine technology and the LowVib® anti-vibration system, which allow efficient cutting while decreasing operator fatigue.
  • Clearing saws – Husqvarna clearing saws are designed for heavy-duty applications like land clearing, brush cutting and vegetation management. Their powerful engines and ergonomic design allow them to effectively manage dense foliage in silviculture activities.
  • Pole saws – These extendable tools allow workers to reach and cut high branches without using a ladder. They are lightweight and adaptable instruments that provide precise cutting while increasing efficiency in silviculture activities.

Maintenance and safety tips

Regular maintenance ensures the long-term longevity and optimal performance of Husqvarna silviculture tools. Regularly clean and inspect the equipment for damage or wear. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for oiling, fuelling and lubricating. 

Sharpen chainsaw chains and replace worn-out components as needed. When not in use, keep all equipment clean and dry. This will help to extend the lifespan of the tools. These maintenance steps will keep your fleet operating at its maximum potential.

Always remember that when operating any type of forestry equipment, safety comes first. Ensure that workers wear proper personal protective equipment, such as helmets, goggles, ear protection and chainsaw chaps. Ensure that operators receive proper training and certification – Cutting Edge runs training sessions and can certify operators.
