Skid Steer Disc Mulcher Attachment | Bradco By Paladin

Overview

This Bradco skid steer disc mulcher — the FD60 Disc Mulcher — is a disc mulcher for skid steer loaders, cutting at 75.74" overall width and requiring 30–45 GPM at 3,300 psi minimum. It mounts on a quick attach coupler. Bradco builds mulchers on two axes — the carrier they hang from, and whether the cutting head is a drum or a disc — and those two choices decide almost everything else.

Key Features of the Bradco Skid Steer Disc Mulcher

• Three published capacities: fells trees up to 14", processes up to 8", and stump grinds — no other mulcher in the Bradco range states all three.
• Heavy-machined steel QUADCO disc for smooth, robust operation.
• The bearing housing never needs to be greased — a genuine service-interval saving on a machine that runs all day.
• Debris shovel keeps the teeth clear, which is what sustains cutting rate rather than peak power.
• High efficiency piston motor.
• A high flow disc mulcher at 2,217 lbs — check your loader carries it before ordering.
• The QUADCO disc mulcher head is the component that defines this machine: heavy-machined steel, built for aggressive use.
• A skid steer forestry mulcher for felling rather than processing — the distinction that decides which head suits your work.

Why Choose This Skid Steer Disc Mulcher

• Felling and mulching are different jobs. A disc mulcher severs standing timber quickly; a drum mulcher produces finer material more slowly. Choose by what the site needs.
• Service intervals are a running cost. A sealed bearing housing and a self-clearing debris shovel are what keep a machine working rather than parked.
• A tree felling attachment that also stump grinds saves a second pass with a second tool.

Which Bradco Mulcher Do You Need?

Bradco builds three mulchers. The first question is what carries it; the second is whether the cutting head is a drum or a disc.

For processing brush into finer material rather than felling, the Series II MM72 drum mulcher cuts at 60" and 72". For excavator carriers, the Series II Excavator Mulcher is sized by machine weight class.

Which Machines Fit This Skid Steer Disc Mulcher?

This mulcher mounts on a skid steer quick attach and is a high-flow machine: it requires 30–45 GPM at a minimum of 3,300 psi. At 2,217 lbs it is also among the heaviest attachments in the Bradco range, so check what your loader carries at reach as well as what it supplies hydraulically.

Confirm your machine's auxiliary flow and pressure before ordering — on a mulcher these are the specifications that decide whether the head reaches working speed. If you are unsure, contact eskidsteer.com at (866) 757-8337. The FD60 stump grinds as part of its felling work, but for stump removal as the main job the dedicated stump grinder reaches 12" below grade, which a disc head does not.
