Forax Equipment Skid Steer Attachments

The right model depends on your skid steer's hydraulic flow, horsepower, and the type of vegetation you plan to clear. For lighter brush and standard-flow machines, an ultralight mulcher may be suitable, while heavy-duty mulchers are better for dense brush, saplings, and demanding commercial land-clearing jobs.

Compatibility depends on your machine's mounting plate, auxiliary hydraulic flow (GPM), operating pressure, and lifting capacity. Always compare your skid steer's specifications with the attachment requirements before purchasing.

Forax skid steer mulchers are designed to process grass, weeds, brush, vines, thick vegetation, and small trees. The maximum cutting capability varies by model, so select a mulcher that matches the size and density of the material you intend to clear.

Hydraulic requirements vary by model. For example, some Forax mulchers operate with approximately 12 GPM, while larger heavy-duty models require 19–30 GPM or more. Using a machine with the correct hydraulic flow ensures efficient performance and helps protect the hydraulic system.

The HP40 is an ultralight mulcher designed for lower-flow skid steers and lighter vegetation. The HD36 is a compact heavy-duty mulcher suitable for tougher brush and can also be used on compatible excavators and tractors. The HD72 provides a wider cutting width and is intended for higher-capacity machines handling larger land-clearing projects.

For dependable performance:

• 
  Inspect cutting teeth or blades before each use.
  
• 
  Check hydraulic hoses, fittings, and couplers for leaks or damage.
  
• 
  Keep the rotor and housing free of debris.
  
• 
  Lubricate grease points according to the maintenance schedule.
  
• 
  Replace worn cutting components promptly and store the attachment in a clean, dry location when not in use.
