The positive drive, cog belt and sprocket design maximizes efficiency and requires less maintenance than other drive types.
BATTLE AX® – L SERIES
Skid Steer / Compact Track Loader
If you have a low-flow skid steer or compact track loader with 15-35.9 GPM weighing up to 10,300 pounds, the L Series mulching head is for you. Take advantage of the innovative, high-performance Battle Ax rotor and the Loftness® exclusive two-stage cutting chamber to quickly mulch material with the ability to create some of the smallest, most consistent particle sizes in the industry.
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 blades or double carbide teeth.
The high-pressure gear motor is a reliable, cost-effective workhorse. It is for use with case drain.
Rotor ends are machine turned to mate with close tolerance, machined anti-wrap rings, which minimize debris in the bearing chamber.
Constructed with integrated, welded claw hooks, the bar helps push falling trees and brush away from the power unit, while also allowing them to be properly positioned for efficient feeding into the head.
An integrated PSI gauge that monitors the hydraulic load is positioned for easy viewing from the skid steer cab. It helps keep the Battle Ax at the optimum hydraulic load for peak performance throughout an application.
All body components are laser cut from premium strength steel. Also, abrasion resistant steel is used in high-wear areas
Running the entire length of the mulching attachment, steel deflector chains improve safety by reducing flying debris.
The Battle Ax is designed for maximum visibility from the skid steer cab, which increases safety, productivity and efficiency.
The universal mount allows the Battle Ax to be easily used with any brand or model of skid steer or compact track loader.
Hoses are right sized and routed to reduce the chance of binding, yet are long enough for a full range of motion without damage. Hoses are included, couplers are not.
A right-hand hose kit is optional for use on skid steers with hydraulic couplers on the right-hand side of the machine.
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.
