Description

MX548R Fixed Tooth Mulcher for Excavator, 8-20 Ton

As with the standard MX548, the MX548R is a brush mulcher for excavators, designed to maintain and clear fence lines and entry level contractor work. The difference is aggressive root rake ripper teeth build into the frame to rip out rocks and move logs and has a heavier duty body built with AR400 steel that is the same weight but much stronger than mild steel. All 500 series Baumalight brush mulchers are offered with two different type of cutting teeth. The Planer style teeth take small bites and provide the most efficient mulching and cutting. The Ripper style teeth have more of a shredding mulching action. Their v-shaped design makes them less susceptible to impacts with hard objects like stones, making them the better choice when mulching below grade and in fence lines. See our brush cutting size chart to see what brush size this excavator mounted forestry mulcher can handle.

FEATURES

Integrated skid shoes

These durable skid shoes help the Brush Mulcher to better float over the ground for optimal mulching action.

V-Notch

The force and impact of mulching often bends the teeth. Our V-Notch teeth and hardened holders hold the tooth firmly in place to absorb impacts from multiple directions.

Hardened Teeth Holders

Heavy-duty teeth holders resist bending and keep you working longer.

OPTION TO CHANGE OUT FOR 500 SERIES Ripper TEETH

The 500 Series teeth come in two carbide tipped styles; Planer and Ripper. The Planer style teeth take small bites and provide the most efficient mulching and cutting. The Ripper style teeth have more of a shredding mulching action. Their v-shaped design makes them less susceptible to impacts with hard objects like stones, making them the better choice when mulching below grade and in fence lines. Both styles are Bolt-on replaceable for quick and easy servicing and replacement even in the field. 500 series teeth are V-Notched to work with the carbon hardened tooth holders.

Spiral Tooth Pattern

For smoother mulching, the spiral tool pattern allows one tooth to engage at a time.

Overtorque Protection - Relief Valve

The relief valve protects the motor and the hydraulic system from pressure spikes. When an obstacle is hit the relief valves open and relieves the pressure.

REINFORCED BELT

A heavy duty reinforced belt delivers the force from the gear box to the rotor. This offers protection from the shocks inherent in mulching.

Wire Protection Kit

Protective steel cover that prevents damage from wire fencing.

Chain Curtain

The rear of the unit is guarded by a chain curtain so standing brush enters and mulched debris exits.

Heavy duty frame

Heavy duty frame with T1 alloy tool steel sheet metal for all the main areas. Powder coated frame with multiple anti-slip pads to give you secure footing for ease of entry and exit from your cab.

Powder Coated

Our powder coat finish is much tougher than conventional paint to stand up to the rigors of mulching and helps prevent rusting

BENT AXIS PISTON MOTOR

Our industry leading bent axis piston motors make the most use of your hydraulic flow and pressure for your brush clearing needs.

Hydraulic Flow & Pressure Database

For your convenience Baumalight has Developed a PSI Flow and Pressure database with over 1000 different carrier models to help you decide the best Baumalight model for your machine.

overHung Load Adapter (bearing support)

Baumalight mulchers use an overhung load adapter which is designed with tapered roller bearings to stand up to the rigors of heavy mulching.

Root Rake

The MX530R, MX548R and iMX748R are equipped with a root rake for pushing fallen logs or other debris out of the way. The MX548R and iMX748R utilize replaceable bucket-style scrapper teeth.
