MS548 Fixed Tooth Mulcher for Skid Steer
Our 500 series fixed tooth brush mulchers for skidsteers are designed to maintain and clear fence lines on farms and entry level contractor work. The 500 series Baumalight brush mulchers will efficiently mulch heavy brush and small trees and are offered with two different types of 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. The 500 & 700 series skidsteer mulchers come with pressure gauges which is very handy to watch and see how close you are to maximum pressure; once you start blowing over relief the mulcher becomes very unproductive.

SERVICE AND INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS & RIGHT TO REPAIR
Baumalight offers customers a series of helpful service & instructional videos and supports the right to repair. These videos show you how to perform your own trouble shooting and repairs which can save you a lot of down time because many things can be fixed on the spot by end users. Also, after the warranty period is over, a lot of money can be saved if you can do things yourself following simple instructions on trouble shooting, maintenance and repairs.

INTEGRATED PUSH BAR
The integrated brush bar helps control the brush and bend taller brush for easier mulching.
Adjustable skid shoes
These two position skid shoes allow you to adjust the cutting height for optimal clearing performance.
ARMOURED AND SLEEVED
Baumalight hoses are sleeved for the operator and hose protection. A pivoting arm is also standard with a greaseable pin keeping the slack out of the way which protects the hoses from dangerous pinching and strain.
V-NOTCH
The force and impact of mulching often bends the teeth. Our V-Notch teeth and hardened holders hold the tooth firmly in place to absorb impacts from multiple directions.
Hardened Tooth Holders
These heavy-duty tooth holders resist bending and keep you working longer.
6 FREE TEETH
All MS548 Brush Mulchers come with a free set of 6 replacement teeth. These replacement teeth are conveniently shipped in a robust enclosed compartment on top of the frame.
Optional 500 Series Ripper Teeth
The 500 Series teeth come in two carbide tipped styles; Planer and Ripper. 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. Both styles are Bolt-on replaceable for quick and easy servicing and replacement even in the field.
All units shipped with Standard P5000 Series Planer Teeth only and ripper teeth can be installed as the planer teeth need replacing. Units can be operated with a mix of Planer and Ripper teeth.
Sprial Tooth Pattern
For smoother mulching, the spiral tool pattern allows one tooth to engage at a time.
Overtorque Protection - Relief Valve
The relief valve protects the motor and the hydraulic system from pressure spikes. When an obstacle is hit the relief valves open and relieves the pressure.
Pressure Gauge
Large PSI pressure gauge for maintaining the optimal flow that gives you a clear indication of the most efficient brush mulching performance.
REINFORCED BELT
A heavy duty reinforced belt delivers the force from the gear box to the rotor. This offers protection from the shocks inherent in mulching.
Wire Protection Kit
Protective steel cover that prevents damage from wire fencing.
Chain Curtain
The rear of the unit is guarded by a chain curtain so standing brush enters and mulched debris exits.
heavy duty frame
Heavy duty frame with T1 alloy tool steel sheet metal for all the main areas. Powder coated frame with multiple anti-slip pads to give you secure footing for ease of entry and exit from your cab.
Powder Coated
Our powder coat finish is much tougher than conventional paint to stand up to the rigors of mulching and helps prevent rusting.
BENT AXIS PISTON MOTOR
Our industry leading bent axis piston motors make the most use of your hydraulic flow and pressure for your brush clearing needs.

Couplers must be ordered separately as we do not supply hydraulic couplers with product due to the variety carrier specifications. Click the link below.
Hydraulic Flow & Pressure Database
For your convenience Baumalight has Developed a PSI Flow and Pressure database with over 1000 different carrier models to help you decide the best Baumalight model for your machine.
Anti SLip Strip
For ease of entry and exit from the cab an anti-slip strip gives sure footing.
OVERHung Load Adapter (bearing Support)
Baumalight mulchers use an overhung load adapter which is designed with tapered roller bearings to stand up to the rigors of heavy mulching.
