Bobcat rolls out two new land clearing attachments for small loaders

Bobcat has rolled out two new Brushcat rotary cutter attachments and a new line of redesigned loader drum mulchers for cutting, pulverising and clearing debris on rough land clearing jobs. The 44-inch and 54-inch Brushcat rotary cutter attachments are the smallest two models in the lineup, augmenting the attachment options for compact utility loaders, additionally known as mini skid steers or mini track loaders, and for small articulated loaders. Their small size enables greater access to hard-to-reach areas of heavy overgrowth. Bobcat told the media that the models feature a high-efficiency, direct-drive motor that maximises hydraulic horsepower for cutting and mulching tall, thick vegetation in one pass. The high cutting speeds and heavy-duty blades can cut and mulch vegetation up to 2 in diameter. The open front-deck design permits clear operator visibility of the cutting path. Additionally, the lightweight, short oscillating deck allows the brush cutter to follow ground contours to maintain a clean cut, even on slopes and uneven terrain, as per Bobcat. Skid shoes control the deck from digging into inclines and are replaceable. Additionally, the rear roller blocks debris from flying out the back, improving manoeuvrability and controlling the attachment from gouging into the ground. These new attachments are compatible with Bobcat’s small articulated loaders (L23, L28), compact utility loaders (MT85, MT100) and Bobcat’s 450 skid-steer loaders and compact track loaders. The 44 in and 54 in Brushcat rotary cutter attachments are the smallest two models in the line-up. Image Source Also read: Bobcat launches TL619 telehandler: multipurpose machine
