Product Description

McLaren Industries Rotary Mulcher | Width 72" | 15 To 45 GPM | For Skid Steer

DESCRIPTION

Built for contractors who demand relentless performance, the McLaren Industries Skid Steer Rotary Mulcher is engineered to dominate the toughest land-clearing jobs. Designed with a 72-inch frame and 60-inch cutting drum, this heavy-duty skid steer mulcher transforms trees, brush, and overgrowth into finely processed mulch in seconds.

Constructed with Hardox 450 steel liners and depth limiters, it delivers unmatched durability while staying lighter for faster drum recovery. The advanced torque-balancing shaft protects your hydraulic system, while premium SKF spherical bearings ensure smooth, long-lasting operation. Available in Low Flow (15–25 GPM) and High Flow (26–45 GPM) configurations, each unit is factory-tuned to your machine for peak hydraulic efficiency and 2–3 second recovery time.

If you’re clearing land, managing right-of-way, or tackling forestry applications, this skid steer drum mulcher delivers power, precision, and professional-grade results.

Key Features

  • Hardox 450 Steel Construction Inner liner and depth limiters built with extreme wear-resistant steel for longer life in harsh mulching environments.
  • Factory-Tuned Hydraulic Performance Precisely calibrated to your skid steer’s flow rate for maximum drum speed and rapid 2–3 second recovery.
  • 72" Frame With 60" Drum Wide cutting coverage improves productivity while maintaining maneuverability in tight jobsite conditions.
  • Low & High Flow Options Compatible with 15–25 GPM standard flow or 26–45 GPM high-flow skid steer hydraulic systems.
  • Premium SKF Spherical Bearings Heavy-duty roller bearings outperform standard straight bearings for smoother rotation and longer service life.
  • Torque Balancing Shaft Design Reduces angular torque stress on the hydraulic pump shaft, protecting your machine investment.
  • Replaceable Carbide Teeth System Durable carbide teeth with optional mulching knives or combination setup for versatile brush and tree processing.
  • Special Secure Tooth Holder Rear single-bolt locking system ensures teeth stay seated while allowing quick and easy field replacement.
  • Adjustable Hydraulic Hood Cover Controls chip size and recycles material into finer mulch while maintaining clear operator visibility.
  • Five-Position Push Bar Provides leverage against trees and heavy brush for controlled, efficient felling and mulching.
  • Replaceable Skid Plates Easily swapped wear components extend attachment life and reduce long-term maintenance costs.

Customer photo review of Ferntree Mini Excavator Forestry Mulcher | Model FF-L Series | 22"-30" Cutting Width | Machine Size 2.5- 6 Ton | For Mini Excavator

easy buying process and great communication. Mulcher works great, easily clears overgrown brush and even mulched a 5" thick mulberry tree fairly easily. running it off of my old 331 bobcat with no problem powering the drum at all. Only small issue which isn't a big deal is that the supplied hoses are about 16" too short to operate a full range of motion.

Over all built well. I like it is all cast iron and metal and not plastic. Had to modify fertilizer disc mount to fit correctly, nothing major, a little grinding. I modified the center link hitch point to accommodate my John Deere quick hitch. Have yet to plant with it but I’m sure it will work perfect. Love the grease fittings everywhere. Reminds me of the old farm equipment I grew up on, and still use periodically.

My firminator RT was delivered in good condition in ND. I will be using it next week. I have a 45 HP John Deere tractor that is supposed to lift 2000 lb but really struggles to lift this 6 foot firminator RT. I will just have to use in as a two pass operation for now. I do wish there was a better operating manual for this unit. Maybe that is something you can work on. I will give you an update once I start using it in a few days.

TENT is easy to put up , material is tuff as told....only complaint is that i wish the bottom had about 3 to 4 inches overlap towards the inside so i could install a 2 x4 or something to help hold the tent down in high winds we have here in virginia thanks

Hi, my name is Ken. I’ve had a great experience with Ripping It Outdoors. I purchased a Forax Hp40 Mulcher for my mini excavator. Kayla Patterson is who I dealt with from the beginning until I received it at my house. She has been wonderful to work with and looking forward to working with her with any other orders I purchase. Kayla answered any questions I had and kept me updated throughout the whole process, can’t say it enough just a wonderful person to work with!!

These are great feeders if you don’t have any feral hogs but if the hogs tear off the wiring harness from the timer to the feeder motor, you’re disabled. Then, if you ask for help from Outback, they refer you to the dealer but really you’re on your own for parts and repairs. I have three Outback feeders that work as designed. They’re 13 years old and have always served well but this feeder misses the mark by a very high margin. I’d NEVER buy this product again. Feeders need to be dependable and this unit is not.
