How is The Extractigator different from competitor devices?
The answer is in the design. Competitor models are designed in an "L" shape. The pivot (or fulcrum) is a fixed distance from the plant to be removed, and requires a large amount of operator effort at the start of the removal – at an uncomfortable vertical level requiring much physical strength.
The design of the Extractigator is one which has a variable pivot distance, allowing the operator maximum force applied to the plant at the beginning of the pull (when it is needed the most) with the lowest amount of operator effort. The handle is in a position which allows the operator to use body weight as the advantage – not physical strength. As the plant is removed, the pulling distance is increased.
