MX548R Fixed Tooth Mulcher for Excavator, 8-20 Ton

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.
