FLAILING MACHINE FOR FELLED TREES Abstract of the Disclosure This invention relates to a flailing machine for stripping branches and/or bark from felled trees. The machine is adapted for operation from the end of an extendible and rotatable boom of a logging vehicle so that the trees can be stripped actually on the felling site. The machine has a multiple flail element with attached flails and which rotates in a generally horizontal plane. The flail element is supported above a felled tree to be stripped and the flails remove branches and bark. The support for the flail element is attached to the end of the boom arm by a rotatable coupling enabling the machine to be rotated around a vertical axis. A drive mechanism enables the operator of the vehicle to orient the flailing machine with respect to the felled trees to achieve the most efficient stripping effect. In a preferred form, the machine also has a topping device for cutting off the unwanted top portions of the tree. This can also be operated easily by the operator of the vehicle and is arranged so that no reorientation of the machine with respect to the felled trees is required.
