Product Description

Baumalight Fixed Tooth Mulcher | Model MX548R | Rotor Width 48" | Machine Size 7-22 Tons | For Excavators

Description

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.

Key Features

  • Efficient Cutting: Cuts heavy vegetation and light brush using high-speed teeth.
  • Concave Shaped Carbide Tips: Provides aggressive brush mulching action by chipping the brush bit by bit.
  • Rotating Teeth: Ensures there is always a sharp edge, making mulching easier.
  • Brush Cutting Size Chart: Refer to the chart for processing capacity and motor options for maximum brush cutting sizes.
  • Built-In Control and Precision: Allows for mulching around objects, whether in a ditch or overhead.
  • Relief Valve: Protects the motor and hydraulic systems from pressure spikes by relieving pressure when an obstacle is hit.
  • Integrated Skid Shoes: Helps the brush mulcher float over the ground for optimal mulching action.
  • Heavy-Duty Reinforced Belt: Transfers force from the gearbox to the rotor.
  • Factory Lubricated Rotor Bearings: Lubricated with lithium or lithium complex base grease suitable for this application.
  • Powder Coating Finish: Prevents rusting and ensures durability.
