What size trees can a forestry mulcher handle?

On compact track loader heads, 4-6 inch diameter trees are steady production and 6-8 inches is workable but slow. Bigger than that is chainsaw or excavator work, or a job for a dedicated high-horsepower carrier. A good quote states its tree-size cap in inches — that number is the difference between a one-day job and a three-day job.
