Product & applications
About the brush cutter
An excavator-mounted cutting deck with a hydraulic rotary blade assembly for brush, saplings and suitable woody vegetation. Standard-flow and high-flow versions are selected for the carrier’s auxiliary circuit.
Features & benefits
Reinforced cutting deck
The deck protects the drive and blade assembly during brush-clearing work.
Standard and high-flow variants
S and H variants have distinct flow requirements within each cutting-width group.
Typical applications
- Land clearingCut eligible brush and saplings during property and site preparation.
- Right-of-way maintenanceManage growth along roads, utilities and access corridors.
- Woodland and storm cleanupProcess suitable underbrush and fallen branches.

Installation requirements
Confirm the attachment fits your excavator
Before ordering, send the machine identification and the connection, power and working information relevant to this product.
- D1 / D2
- Both pin diameters
- C
- Pin centre distance
- W
- Clear mounting width
Excavator and working reach
Match the machine class, selected deck weight and lifting capacity at the working radius.
Bracket and coupler
Confirm pins, centres, clear mounting width and any quick-coupler connection.
S or H hydraulic version
Compare the exact model flow range; confirm pressure, return and motor drain with the selected motor.
Cutting area and guarding
Identify obstacles and services, route hoses clear of the deck, and maintain the specified debris exclusion area.
Product questions
Brush cutter questions
What do S and H mean?
They distinguish standard-flow and high-flow configurations in the reference model table.
Does every model cut the same vegetation diameter?
No. The table gives different maximum brush diameters for the three size groups.
Is this the same as a forestry drum mulcher?
No. This attachment uses a rotary blade deck, rather than cutters around a horizontal drum.
Why check hydraulic flow?
The same deck width can have different drive requirements. Match the complete model, not just its width.

Forestry & Site Maintenance
Forestry mulcher
A hydraulic drum attachment for reducing brush, woody debris and fallen vegetation into smaller material. Fixed cutters work around a horizontal rotor; model selection depends on the excavator and its continuous hydraulic supply.
Forestry & Site Maintenance
Excavator rake
An open-tine excavator attachment for gathering roots, brush, rocks and site debris. Soil and smaller loose material can pass between the tines while larger material is gathered.
