Description:

If you've got the reach, we've got the attachment!

Add versatility to your business with Bull Hog forestry mulcher attachments and mulching heads for excavators. The incredible performance and durability of the Bull Hog excavator mulcher range will lead you to excellent productivity, even in hard-to-reach places.

Attached to any model or size excavator, the Bull Hog forestry mulchers are perfect for clearing trees and brush along roadsides, ravines, creeks, riverbanks, and places that could otherwise be difficult to reach.

ROTOR SYSTEMS

Fecon Bull Hog mulchers for excavators are available with 2 different rotor systems, offering versatility and customisability to best suit your needs:

FGT Rotor System

The FGT rotor system is a fixed tooth drum-style configuration featuring a smooth rotor surface, spiral tool pattern, and innovative tool shape for smooth, efficient cutting.

In addition to outstanding performance, the FGT rotor system is built to last in the most difficult of mulching applications.

Forged tools and tool holders, a V-Back tool fastening system, heavy-wall drum material, and an efficient structural design have been proven in tough applications for thousands of hours with power in excess of 600 HP. The Fecon drum is built to last.

- Single-bolt recessed tool fastening that is secure, and easily serviced from the rear of the tool holder
- Severe Duty rotor bearing seal design protects from debris for longer bearing life.
- Forged bolt-on rotor stub shafts
- Lower profile tool height with smooth rotor surface reduces damage risk, improving mulcher longevity.

Fecon's FGT rotor system can be equipped with multiple tool options that allow contractors to quickly configure their mulcher to suit diverse conditions:

- Standard dual-carbide toolsgreatest all-around reliability and performance for most contractors
- Severe Duty carbideswear plates added to the body of the Standard Double Carbide
- Stone toolsthe greatest durability and wear characteristics against rock and abrasion
- The Samurai knifeincreased productivity and finer, more consistent chip size
- The Viking Sword knifeincreased productivity with improved durability and a more consistent chip size

DCR Rotor System

Introducing the Depth Control Rotor (DCR) system.

The Fecon DCR brings a superior level of performance and value to mulching, controlling the depth of bite and directing material flow so that energy is reserved for production.

The innovative DCR cuts quickly, delivering better fuel economy and more uniform particle size. The DCR system leverages the new and improved reversible Viking Axe knife style cutting tool. The rotor and the tool are paired for optimal performance and long-lasting productivity.

Depth control rings of the DCR system work with the Viking Axe to enable more cutting with less horsepower. The shape of the Viking Axe edge slices as it chips, providing greater forgiveness on rock than straight-edged tools or saw teeth. The improved thicker blade creates a more durable edge, increasing the overall life of the knife; the angle is also easier to sharpen

Depth control rings lend further impact protection to the tool body, and reduce shock loading to the mechanical or hydraulic driveline.

- Severe Duty rotor bearing seal design protects from debris for longer bearing life.
- Forged bolt-on rotor stub shafts.

HYDRAULIC MOTORS

All Fecon Bull Hog forestry mulchers in Australia are equipped with large high performance variable displacement hydraulic motors, built by Rexroththe benchmark for hydraulic quality.

Unlike fixed displacement motors that are used in competitor mulcher heads, variable displacement motors are load sensing, which means they automatically adjust speed and torque ratios in order to minimise drum stall. They are sometimes referred to as 2-speed drive motors.

This significantly increases productivity whilst also reducing hydraulic temperature and fuel burn, creating maximum efficiency for your Bull Hog mulcher attachment.
