BATTLE AX® – 10 SERIES
7,000-10,000 lb Excavators
Even compact excavators can take advantage of the awesome power of the Battle Ax. Despite being the smallest model in the line, the 10 Series still packs a punch, thanks to its depth gauge design and Loftness® exclusive two-stage cutting chamber. It’s tough enough to carry the Loftness name, and we’re confident enough in its performance to back it with an industry-leading warranty.
The Battle Ax rotor design uses built-in depth gauges to control cutting depth, like raker teeth on a chainsaw.
Two shear bars allow the Battle Ax to produce a finer mulch with fewer passes. The primary shear bar is adjustable for controlling particle sizes.
The cutting teeth are mounted to the rotor with a single bolt. They can be easily reversed, replaced or removed on the jobsite using a common hex socket.
Choose from 4-point beaver teeth, Quadco reversible planer teeth or Double Carbide Teeth.
The 10 Series Battle Ax features a 45cc high-pressure gear motor for excavators with hydraulic systems ranging from 15 to 35.9 gallons per minute and up to 4,100 PSI (20 to 70 hydraulic horsepower). This reliable motor turns the rotor from 1,750 to 2,300 RPM.
A two-groove banded belt system efficiently transfers power to the rotor.
Rotor ends are machine turned to mate with close tolerance, machined anti-wrap rings, which minimize debris in the bearing chamber.
The Battle Ax is constructed of high-strength steel to withstand some of the toughest operating conditions.
Running the entire length of the mulching attachment, steel deflector chains improve safety by reducing flying debris.
The spade hook is a useful tool for positioning material to be mulched.
A variety of mounts are available for attaching the Battle Ax to any make of excavator. Pin-on and pin grabber styles are available.
The Battle Ax comes standard with an industry-leading 2-year warranty.
Reversible with ultra-sharp, heat-treated steel knife edges, the Quadco planer blades effortlessly slice through trees and vegetation, as opposed to shredding and tearing. They can be rotated on site for a fresh cutting edge, or sharpened to maintain efficiency.
Constructed of heat-treated steel, the reversible beaver teeth have four points, which help them pick up material from the ground. They are more cost effective than planer blades, but offer less slicing performance.
Carbide cutting teeth are highly durable for withstanding tough operating conditions, such as rocky terrain. The Battle Ax rotor is designed to work well with these teeth, whereas ring-style rotors tend to have difficulty picking up material when using carbides.
