The Baumalight brush mulcher models on this page have been handpicked by our team of experts so you can rest assured you’re getting a durable machine that will pay for itself fast.

The Baumalight MS560, for instance, works with standard-flow skid steers to make quick work of dense brush and small saplings using its 56″ rotor, rugged frame, and replaceable carbide teeth.

Or, consider the Baumalight MS972 for high-flow skid steers, with an unmatched capacity thanks to its 72″ rotor and heavy-duty design, built for clearing larger tracts and heavier material.

Both have bolt-on skid shoes, sealed bearings, and universal skid steer quick-attach compatibility. Every unit ships directly from US warehouses and is backed by our one-year structural warranty.

You don’t have to play the guessing game choosing the right equipment, either. We help you pick the right model, verify compatibility with your equipment’s hydraulic flow and weight class, and provide guidance on maintenance and wear parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a mulcher and a brush cutter?

A brush cutter uses blades or flails to cut and scatter tall grass, weeds, and light brush. It leaves debris largely intact and struggles with saplings or thicker material. A mulcher uses a heavy rotor with carbide teeth to shred brush and saplings into mulch, handling much denser material with ease and leaving land totally clear. 

Are forestry mulchers worth it?

Brush mulchers save time, reduce manual labor, and eliminate the need to haul away debris - making them a no-brainer investment if you regularly clear overgrown areas. A mulcher grinds vegetation back into the soil as mulch, improving ground cover and cutting disposal costs. They’re a must for land managers, farmers, and contractors.

How long do forestry mulcher teeth last? 

Carbide teeth on a brush mulcher can last anywhere from 150 to 400 operating hours, but it depends mostly on the type of brush you’re attempting to mulch. You’ll get longer life if you’re clearing softer wood and dealing with clean soil than rocky, sandy terrain with larger brush.

But, part of what makes Baumalight mulchers so great is how easy it is to replace teeth out in the field. They have a unique bolt on design to minimize downtime.

How much do forestry mulchers charge an hour?

Contractor rates vary, but you can expect to pay somewhere between $150-$300 per hour, depending on machine size and terrain difficulty. Think about how often you do land clearing and you may find it makes more sense to own your own mulching equipment. 

How many acres can a forestry mulcher clear in a day?

A standard-flow skid steer with a 56″ brush mulcher (like the MS560) can typically clear 1-2 acres in an 8-hour day, depending on brush density and terrain. A high-flow machine with a 72″ heavy-duty mulcher (like the MS972) can cover 2-3 acres under similar conditions.

Will a forestry mulcher grind stumps?

A brush mulcher can reduce the tops of stumps and exposed roots to ground level, but it is not designed to grind stumps below grade. Fortunately, we also carry stump grinders if you need both pieces of equipment!
