Product Description

DESCRIPTION
MP348 Fixed Tooth Mulcher for Power Take Off on a Tractor
The 300 series is our most light weight fixed tooth masticating head brush mulcher for 3-point hitch tractors. With low ground speed the MP348 brush mulcher will efficiently cut heavy vegetation and light brush using high speed teeth. The concave shaped carbide tip provides aggressive brush mulching action by chipping the brush bit by bit. Part of the secret of their performance is the ease of rotating the teeth so there is always a sharp edge to make mulching easier. The spiral tooth pattern helps in one tooth at a time for smooth mulching.
The direct drive of a brush mulcher on the PTO of a tractor is the most efficient way to run a brush mulcher and if you check our brush cutting size charts you will see that the slower you can travel the bigger material you can handle. A heavy duty reinforced belt delivers the force from the gear box to the rotor. Heavy duty gearbox for high performance and better mulching power and long life. To protect the gearbox and drive system, Baumalight PTO Mulchers come with a slip clutch, which automatically disengages the clutch at a predetermined torque. If a fence wire is caught during the mulching process , it can damage the unit by slipping over to the edge of the rotor and get wrapped on the shaft, so wire protection kit is provided to safeguard the rotor and the shaft.
The MS348 small tractor mounted brush mulcher as a rotor diameter of 15 inches(tool tips), rotor width of 48 inches and a path width of 60 inches. The A450 motor option has a cutting capacity of up to 4 inches in brush diameter, see the brush cutting chart to see what your tractor would do.
Key Features
INTEGRATED PUSH BAR
The integrated brush bar helps control the brush and bend taller brush for easier mulching.
ADJUSTABLE SKID SHOES
These two position skid shoes allow you to adjust the cutting height for optimal clearing performance.
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 TOOTH HOLDERS
These heavy-duty tooth holders resist bending and keep you working longer.
SPIRAL TOOTH PATTERN
For smoother mulching, the spiral tool pattern allows one tooth to engage at a time.
SLIP CLUTCH
To protect the gearbox and drive sytem, Baumalight PTO mulchers come with a slip clutch. Automatically disengaging the clutch at a predetermined torque.
HEAVY DUTY GEARBOX
Heavy duty gearbox for high performance and better mulching power and long life.
HYDRAULIC DOORS
The single debris door is controlled hydraulically from the cab to give the operator more control of the mulching action. When closed the mulch debris is more controlled and a finer mulch is produced.
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.
GREASEABLE PINS
Baumalight mulchers feature grease pins on all pivot points, reducing the risk of equipment damage and providing long life and easy servicing.
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.
DOUBLE SHIELDED HOSES
All hoses are sleeved for operator and hose protection. The Connecting hoses are sleeved and wrapped in hose armour for double protection.
