Designed for Backhoe Loaders to Improve Multi-Task Capability

Backhoe loaders are some of the most versatile machines in construction and land management. Adding a backhoe brush cutter attachment expands that versatility even further, allowing operators to manage excavation, trenching, and brush clearing using a single carrier. This helps reduce the need for additional machine mobilization and minimizes downtime associated with switching attachments. 

The Forax attachment mounts securely to the backhoe’s boom or bucket-replacement bracket, depending on the configuration chosen. This mounting design keeps the attachment stable and easy to control, even when cutting dense or uneven vegetation. The attachment’s compatibility with standard hydraulic circuits also means operators don’t need aftermarket hydraulic kits or costly retrofit packages, making it easier to deploy across various machines in a fleet.

Because many backhoe loaders already have the hydraulic flow range required for brush cutting, operators can use the Forax cutter immediately after installation. This allows teams to manage brush buildup using existing equipment onsite, helping streamline vegetation work without relying on specialized machines.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

  • 72″ cutting width for vegetation management
    Built with a wide cutting deck suitable for brush clearing, small-tree trimming, and right-of-way maintenance using a backhoe loader.
  • Three-blade system with 24 total cutting edges
    Includes eight cutters per blade to support consistent cutting performance across dense brush and mixed vegetation.
  • Compatible with standard backhoe hydraulic flow
    Designed to operate with typical backhoe loader hydraulic ranges, supporting stable cutter operation without additional retrofit.
  • Multiple mounting configurations available
    Can be installed using a side-mount post or a bucket-replacement bracket to match various backhoe loader setups.
  • Reinforced steel deck and cutter housing
    Constructed for durability in land-clearing and forestry-edge environments where vegetation and debris contact is frequent.
  • Modular, serviceable cutter assemblies
    The blade and cutter components can be individually inspected or replaced, allowing routine maintenance on the jobsite.
  • Suitable for brush clearing and site-prep work
    Designed for applications such as roadside vegetation cleanup, ditch-bank maintenance, utility corridor clearing, and light land-clearing tasks.

With all these features, the Forax Backhoe Brush Cutter isn’t just a backhoe attachment—it provides a practical, efficient way to manage brush, small trees, and overgrown vegetation using equipment already on site.

FAQs

What size excavator to run mulcher?

Generally, mulching heads are categorized according to different weight classes of excavators. For instance, one series may be designed for excavators weighing from10,000 to 20,000 pounds, while the next series will work for excavators ranging from 18,000 to 36,000 pounds.

Can you put a mulcher on a mini excavator?


Yes, you can put a mulcher on a mini excavator—as long as the mulcher is matched to the machine’s size, hydraulic flow, and lifting capacity. Many compact drum mulchers are specifically designed for 3–6 ton mini excavators, offering enough power for brush clearing, small-tree mulching, and vegetation control without overloading the carrier.


Attachments like the Forax XD36 Extreme Duty Mulcher are built for mini excavators and provide professional mulching performance in tight or hard-to-reach areas where larger machines cannot operate.



What excavator attachment is best for forestry?


The best excavator attachment for forestry work depends on the type of vegetation you need to clear. For most land-clearing, trail building, and vegetation management projects, a drum mulcher is considered the top choice because it can shred brush, saplings, and small trees quickly while leaving finely processed mulch behind. Drum mulchers offer the perfect balance of cutting power, precision, and efficiency—especially in dense or wooded terrain.
