2024 BaumaLight Brush Mulchers Excavator MX1160R

The Baumalight MX1160R Brush Mulcher has a 60” rotor and is designed for excavators up to 33 tons. The MX1160R comes with unique performance boosting mulcher rings (licensed by Denis Cimaf). These rings improve the speed and efficiency of your mulching while reducing the risk of breakage on the tooth holders by limiting the size of the bites.

The MX1160R uses a fixed tooth holder and comes with 31 sharpenable planer teeth (P11000), as you will see in the brush cutting size charts this allow mulching of much larger material with an average carrier. The MX1160R comes with aggressive root rake ripper teeth build into the frame to rip out rocks and move logs. The unit also has a heavier duty body, built with a low-weight, high-strength AR400 steel.

Features may include:

• Save time by easily replacing the AR400 steel wear plates on the MX1160R without needing to remove the rotor.

• The adjustable belt tensioner ensures the proper tension of your belts, with no extra idler wheel that could wear out. Simply loosen the bolts and raise the motor mount to tighten the belt.

• Belt tension adjustment can be made by fine-tuning the two puller bolts that move a sliding plate on which the motor is mounted.

• If you are mulching and you catch some old fence wire, it can really cause damage to the unit if the wire slips over the edge of the rotor and gets wrapped around the shaft. The wire can get bunched against the bearings, causing major damage. Our wire protection kit contains a welded raised area on the end of the rotor that protects the shaft and prevents wire from getting in.

• The rear of the unit is guarded by a 3/8” thick chain curtain so standing brush enters and mulched debris exits.
