Experience the ultimate in high-speed land clearing efficiency with the FA FADM Series Disc Mulcher a professional-grade skid steer attachment engineered to transform overgrown land into cleared, ready-to-use terrain faster than any conventional brush cutter or forestry mulcher. Designed for contractors, land developers, and forestry professionals who demand maximum productivity and pristine clearing results, this advanced disc mulcher processes trees, brush, and woody vegetation up to 14 inches in diameter while leaving behind only fine mulch debris that enhances soil quality and eliminates costly cleanup operations.
The FADM Series represents a quantum leap in land clearing technology, utilizing a revolutionary high-speed disc cutting system equipped with dozens of four-point hardened steel teeth that pulverize material into uniform, fine mulch in a single pass. Unlike traditional drum-style mulchers or blade-based brush cutters, the disc mulcher configuration delivers unmatched cutting efficiency, superior mulch quality, and dramatically faster clearing speeds that can reduce project completion times by 30-50% compared to conventional equipment.

The FADM 4800 features 26 four-point hardened steel teeth and weighs 2,100 pounds, providing exceptional maneuverability for selective clearing and tight-access projects with flexible hydraulic flow options of 17-27, 28-38, or 39-45 GPM. The FADM 6000 escalates productivity with 39 four-point hardened steel teeth, weighs 2,700 pounds, and operates at 30-45 GPM flow rates, making it the ultimate choice for large-scale land clearing operations where maximum throughput is essential.
What makes the FADM Series one of the most efficient land clearing tools available is its ability to process material into exceptionally fine mulch that naturally decomposes, enriches the soil, and eliminates the need for post-clearing debris removal or burning. The heavy-duty 3/8-inch steel deck construction 50% thicker than standard brush cutters provides unparalleled protection against impact damage and ensures decades of reliable service in the harshest professional clearing environments.
This disc mulcher is purpose-built for commercial land clearing contractors, site development companies, right-of-way maintenance crews, utility contractors, forestry management professionals, municipal land management departments, pipeline corridor clearing operations, and agricultural land reclamation specialists who need to clear land quickly, efficiently, and completely. Whether you're preparing building sites, clearing shooting ranges, maintaining power line corridors, removing invasive vegetation, creating firebreaks, or reclaiming overgrown farmland, the FADM Series delivers the speed, quality, and reliability that professional operations demand.
The innovative four-point tooth design ensures consistent cutting performance from every angle, self-sharpening action that extends tooth life, and the ability to process even the toughest hardwood species without stalling or bogging down. Combined with precision-balanced disc rotation and optimized tooth spacing, this mulcher maintains aggressive cutting power while producing uniform, fine mulch that distributes evenly across the cleared area.
Transform your land clearing operation from time-consuming and labor-intensive to fast, efficient, and profitable with the FA FADM Series Disc Mulcher the professional's choice for delivering pristine clearing results, eliminating debris management headaches, and completing projects in record time. This is land clearing reimagined for the modern contractor who refuses to settle for outdated technology.

I've started using the mulcher I on several parcels of land 10 acres . I have grind down a couple of 14 inch stumps. Caution the mount bracket behind the mulcher motor exhaust gets extremely hot even with gloves on . But the unit so far seems to works very good it's well put together.
The Firminator G3 is s heavy duty quality machine. The discs worked extremely well and planting and culti-packing is very smooth and easy. Working with Dillon at Ripping It Outdoors was a very good experience and seamless transaction.
After spending way to much money for forest mulching services I discovered this wonderful machine. It's not a giant powerhouse forest mulcher, but it does everything a property owner needs to maintain a forested property. I wish I would have found it sooner.
The Firminator is well built and functions well. I am having some trouble while planting mixed size seeds. Next time out I’ll try setting it so only the smaller seeds drop out the open it up for the larger seeds.
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.
Great piece of equipment. Performs far better than I expected. One piece of advice - if property is significantly overgrown, consider the tractor attachment first to bring down the over growth and then switch to the UTV attachment to maintain property. No complaints worked perfectly.
Put this on Kubota 900 with winch hookup. This thing is a beast (within reason). I named it ‘Homie”, cause Homie don’t play. It will take care of stuff up to about 2” in diameter. You still have to remember that this is NOT like the ones on a bobcat or larger machinery. It does have its limits. But all in all I am very satisfied with it. Now on to the good part! The staff at Ripping It are outstanding! Especially Kayla in the office. She has gone above and beyond on making sure everything went right, from ordering to questions about installation. This young lady would be of great value at ANY company ! Her knowledge and personality are like over the top. This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors and I can only say positive things about them. With all that being said, I do fill out reviews on things I buy, AND I give a honest review. If it’s bad then you will know it. But if it’s good, well I tell the truth ! Again Kayla, from the bottom of my heart, a great big THANK YOU for all your help and just talking to you. I feel like we’ve know each other for years!
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.
This is my first experience with Ripping It Outdoors. Fortunately I got Dillion as a representative and everything from sales to shipping was spot on..
Thanks Dillion for your help!!
The only thing is when hooking up the actuator on my ATV. The wire is long going to the plug in. What has happened in the past about this. Is their video showing the usage of the control?
