DESCRIPTION

The Brown 684 and 684-1 Brush Cutters are designed for high-performance clearing, specifically engineered to handle heavy-duty brush and vegetation with ease.

With two models available—the Brown 684 operating at 540 RPM and the Brown 684-1 at 1000 RPM—this cutter offers flexibility to match different tractor RPMs, making it versatile for varied agricultural needs.

Constructed for extreme-duty applications, both models have a working width of 7', making them suitable for clearing large areas quickly. With a minimum power requirement of 75 HP, the Brown 684 and 684-1 deliver consistent, powerful performance. These cutters are ideal for farmers, ranchers, and land management professionals who need a reliable tool for tough cutting jobs.

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.

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.
