OVERVIEW
The Forax HP40 Ultra-Light Mulcher is engineered for operators who need a powerful brush-clearing solution without the added weight of a traditional mulching head. Designed for compact tractors, small excavators, and machines with limited hydraulic capacity, the HP40 offers a perfect balance of performance, efficiency, and maneuverability. Its lightweight 350-lb frame makes it one of the easiest mulchers to operate on smaller carriers, reducing stress on the machine while maintaining exceptional cutting power.
This 40-inch hydraulic mulcher is ideal for clearing brush, saplings, tall grass, invasive vegetation, and overgrown areas along fence lines, roadsides, and trails. With minimal flow requirements starting at just 12 GPM, the HP40 is compatible with a wide range of compact equipment, making it an excellent choice for acreage maintenance, municipal work, rental fleets, and contractors who need a versatile attachment for multiple job types.
Built with commercial-grade components, the HP40 uses 40 rotatable cutters arranged to deliver continuous slicing power. These cutters self-sharpen through normal operation, reducing downtime and maintenance costs over the life of the machine. Operators benefit from smoother performance, lower vibration, and better mulching efficiency across different vegetation types.
Lightweight Design for Smaller Equipment
A key advantage of the HP40 Ultra-Light Mulcher is its exceptionally low weight. At approximately 350 lbs, it enables small machines to run a professional-grade mulching attachment without sacrificing stability or lift capacity. The lighter build minimizes rear-weight requirements on tractors and reduces track wear on compact excavators.
This makes the HP40 a strong match for property owners, landscaping crews, utility departments, and contractors who need commercial cutting performance on limited-capacity equipment.
Hydraulic Efficiency and Smooth Operation
The HP40 is powered entirely by the carrier’s hydraulic flow. Because it only requires 12 GPM, operators with compact tractors or 2–4 ton excavators can achieve professional-level cutting without adding secondary hydraulic systems or aftermarket kits.
The optimized hydraulic motor works efficiently at lower flow rates, providing reliable torque for clearing brush and light trees. Combined with the 40-inch cutting width, the HP40 covers more area per pass, increasing productivity on small and mid-sized land-clearing projects.
Durable Cutter System with Low Maintenance
The mulching head features a 40-cutter rotor system built for long-lasting performance. Each cutter is reversible, extending its life and helping maintain cutting efficiency over time. Whether the job involves dense brush, saplings, or thick overgrowth, the HP40’s cutter system reduces material quickly and consistently.
The rotor design also improves debris management and requires minimal maintenance aside from periodic inspection and greasing.
