HM4015 Standard Forestry Mulcher

Features

• 

  Reliable Performance

  • Cut trees from 152 mm (6 in) up to 407 mm (16 in) in diameter.
  • Two rotor types:
    • Standard – rotor with teeth only
    • Bite limiter – rotor with teeth separated by ribs to help prevent rotor stalling and creates finer shredded materials
  • Variable torque hydraulic piston motor shifts between high speed, low torque and low speed, high torque to give you speed when you need it and power when it counts.
  • Brackets allow the mulchers to be mounted to a variety of excavators within each size class.
  • The staggered tooth design reduces stalling and jamming.
  • Mulcher teeth options vary by application and preference on final material size:
    • Standard: Most commonly used option. Fairly fine final product used where there is minimal rock present and durability is needed.
    • Rock Crushing: Larger final product, but can work in applications where rocks are present.
    • Bite Limiter: Very fine final product due to aggressive edge of the blade with the limiters and counter knives. Use where rocks are minimal and there are large amounts of standing timber.
  • Hardened counter blades reduce finished material size and increase the rate of composting.
• 

  Easy Maintenance

  • Access internal components quickly and easily with bolt-on service panels.
  • Poly chain belt driven transmission eliminates slippage on startup, reducing maintenance costs.
  • The motor is integrated into the frame to protect it from dust, damage, and impact from falling debris.
  • Ensure service panel security with access bolts recessed into the panel, protecting them from debris.
  • Get back to work faster with field-replaceable wear parts.
• 

  Prioritized Safety

  • Hydraulic mulching door keeps the work environment and equipment safe by dispersing materials according to your application and surroundings.
  • The mulching door operation is controlled by electric diverter valve or medium pressure hydraulic kits from the cab.
    • Door closed – right-of-way clearing, near powerlines and pipelines, and roadside maintenance.
    • Door open – vegetation management, jobsite clearing, forest wood fuel removal, and firebreaks.
  • Flow control valve protects the motor from excessive flow.
  • Ground-level primary grease points keep you safe while performing daily maintenance.
  • Bolt-on, replaceable skids keep the mulcher from going into the ground or into materials expediting wear or causing damage.
