2021年8月21日 · There is a lot of mulching going on here for fire protection. Those big stand alone tracked mulching machines look like expensive money pits. Those full width skid steer mounted ones look like they would be hard on the machine. The mulchers on excavators seem like the way to go as long as the head is sized for the flow and cooling capacity ...

2021年10月2日 · I'm looking for a little excavator to do mulching and light forestry work with. I've been looking at both of these machines. Spec-ed them out as close to apples to apples and I can. Both with segmented rubber, guarding, similar mulching heads, etc. The Tak is 20k cheaper. The Cat does have a 5yr...

2023年3月27日 · here’s specific one… iowa farmer. Lots of forest. I do a ton with forestry (mulching, sheers, spade, tree puller). I also do a lot with minor dirt work, augers, fencing, etc. I’d call my skid steer needs: >50% forestry. Do too many other things to need a dedicated machine. Will run Vail mulcher which is amazing.

2015年5月6日 · As far as mulching heads go, I really like the Fecon heads. Running any mulching head, pretty much overloads any brand or model of CTL. Even the ones with upgraded hydraulics and a forestry package. In hot weather, the hydraulics WILL overheat when running a …

2018年8月26日 · Hi guys, some of you might've seen my other post about how much business to expect for a forestry mulching business in PA with one man and a T770/mulching head. The two key assumptions to my financial plan are 1) that I can consistently work for 30-40 hours weel run time and 2) that people are actually willing to pay $1400/day for work.

2016年8月11日 · The dealership I work for does a lot of forestry mulching packages on track loaders and excavators. I recommend either a Fecon or Denis Cimaf mulching head. Both are great products and priced about the same. Support is great as well. Also, I would look at some other machines besides a Terex.

2018年8月26日 · Good point. I ballparked 12.8k running 34hrs a week, 8 months of the year. That was mostly a wag although about 6k of that is likely teeth alone. The remaining 6k would be for all other PM, repairs, and tracks fund. Seems a little light?

2018年8月26日 · I have been in the mulching game for over 12 years and it's one of the hardest jobs I have ever done and at times the most rewarding. But Boy Oh Boy some days you wonder why you got outa bed. Ive smashed bearings and bearing housings, bent rotors (2), had hydraulic pump fail at less than 1900 hours.

2019年10月2日 · Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum but I came here to try and find some advice and input. Recently I just started a Forestry Mulching Business. I have a 2015 Ram 3500 Crew Cab, a 24ft Kaufman tilt wood deck dual 8k axle gooseneck, Kubota Svl95-2, and fecon Mulching head. The truck has a 62-gallon transfer tank tool box combination.

2017年8月3日 · Yea that's what i was going for was a skid steer with a mulching head. I did go ahead and put an ad on Craigslist just to test the waters. I got the idea from a guy at work. Said that's what he did, and made good money but got tired of doing it. Renting was really what I wanted to do for a while just wasn't sure if that was a viable option.
