Brush Mulcher Belt Installation (300-500 series)
Our 500 series fixed tooth masticating head brush mulchers for 3-point hitch tractors are designed to maintain and clear fence lines on farms and entry level contractor work. The 500 series Baumalight brush mulchers will efficiently mulch heavy brush and small trees and are offered with two different types of 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.
Tractor mounted brush mulchers are not limited to reverse only, drive forward over your mulch and turn it into a finer mulch. Also unique on the MP560 and bigger sizes of tractor mount mulchers is the opening cutting shield. This allows you to adjust for a better, higher angle of attack on bigger brush or keep it closed and control the mulch for even finer results.
With direct drive from the engine, all the way through the heavy duty gear box to the teeth a brush mulcher on the PTO of a tractor is the most efficient way to use a brush mulcher for land clearing.
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.
6 FREE TEETH
All MP560 Brush Mulchers come with a free set of 6 replacement teeth. These replacement teeth are conveniently shipped in a robust enclosed compartment on top of the frame.
OPTIONAL 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.
All units shipped with Standard P5000 Series Planer Teeth only and ripper teeth can be installed as the planer teeth need replacing. Units can be operated with a mix of Planer and Ripper teeth.
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.
