Is This Right For You?
Buy if
- You need to chip brush, limbs, and slash into transportable material rather than mulching in place
- Urban tree service, brush disposal contracts, or sites where leaving mulched material is unacceptable
- You want to produce usable wood chip material for landscaping or disposal
Skip if
- In-place mulching is acceptable — a drum mulcher processes faster without relocating the machine
- You're clearing large acreage where chip transport logistics don't make sense
Also consider
- Drum mulcher for in-place land clearing and brush processing
- Forestry mulcher for high-volume stand clearing where material stays on site
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid to large-frame machines (S450–S750 class) are the best fit for this width.

Care & Maintenance
- Inspect carbide hammers or teeth before every use — missing or broken hammers unbalance the rotor and can cause catastrophic motor damage at high RPM
- Replace worn teeth in matched sets across the rotor — even one missing hammer creates vibration destructive enough to damage drive motor bearings
- Grease rotor shaft bearing housings every 4–8 hours of operation, or more frequently in dusty or abrasive conditions
- Clean packed fibrous material from the housing interior and rotor after every session — buildup adds asymmetric weight and creates rotor imbalance
- Check the hydraulic motor case drain line monthly for leakage — a restricted or failed case drain causes motor shaft seal failure and internal leakage
How to Connect
- Attach mulcher head using Bob-Tach
- Connect high-flow hydraulic couplers
- Verify rotor direction — debris should eject downward, not toward operator
- Run at idle for 30 seconds before engaging rotor at working speed
