Overview

Bauma Light MS972 MS972 Heavy Duty Fixed Tooth Mulcher for Skidsteer

The MS972 Baumalight brush mulcher is much like our MS960 only wider featuring a 72” rotor and 84” path width.
It has the same teeth and like the MS960 also has replaceable wear plates and a very short frame which brings the weight closer to the skidsteer allowing very productive mulching with a smaller track machine or wheeled skidsteer.
Operating a Brush Mulcher from a skid steer is probably the most comfortable way for vegetation management as your work is directly in front of you and new skidsteers are very operator comfort focused.
See our brush cutting size chart to see what limb size this heavy duty skidsteer mounted forestry mulcher can handle.

Bauma Light MS972 SOLD BY EQUIPMENT DEALERS

All Baumalight products are sold through our network of equipment dealers. For you, this means better product support, after-sales service, maintenance and product warranty from your local, trusted dealership

Bauma Light MS972 REPLACEABLE BOLT-IN LINER

Save time by easily replacing the AR400 steel wear plates on the MS972 without needing to remove the rotor.

Bauma Light MS972 Integrated brush bar

When push comes to shove, the integrated push bar helps control

Bauma Light MS972 Directional felling hook

Built into the pusher bar, the directional felling hook will directionally control wayward trees, sprawling clumps and low hanging limbs.

Bauma Light MS972 ROLL BACK TO FELL STANDING TREES

The MS972’s frame is angled so that you can roll back the Brushy Mulcher, pulling back the pusher bar so that you can fully engage the mulching head. This allows the operator to use the mulching head to fell standing trees.

Bauma Light MS972 SPRING LOADED HOSE SUPPORT

Take full advantage of the forward curl and roll back of the MS972 without risking expensive damage to the hoses. Unique to the Baumalight Brush Mulcher, the spring loaded hose support prevents the hoses from falling into harm’s way during forward curl.

Bauma Light MS972 CENTERED ADJUSTABLE HOSE SUPPORT

To accomodate for different skidsteers that have the couplers on different sides, the MS972's hose support is positioned close to the centre of the mulching head and has an adjustable hose.

Bauma Light MS972 ADJUSTABLE BELT TENSIONER

The adjustable belt tensioner ensures the proper tension of your belts, with no extra idler wheel that could wear out. Simply loosen the bolts and raise the motor mount to tighten the belt.

Bauma Light MS972 BENT AXIS PISTON MOTORS ARE A STANDARD OPTION

Our industry leading bent axis piston motors make the most use of your hydraulic flow and pressure for your brush clearing needs.

Bauma Light MS972 CASE DRAIN – VENT TO ATMOSPHERE

To prevent pressure relief activation on the motor seal, the MS972 comes with a case drain line and a vent to atmosphere relief valve. In the event there is a spike in pressure in your hydraulic lines, the case drain will relieve the pressure and drain it back into the return line and back to the tank. If the connection of the case drain (third line) is missed or if the line is blocked, then the case drain will vent to notify you. A properly installed case drain protected by a vent to atmosphere relief valve will save the work of replacing your shaft seal and save you from down time of unexpected maintenance.

Bauma Light MS972 Wire Protection Kit

If you are mulching and you catch some old fence wire, it can really cause damage to the unit if the wire slips over the edge of the rotor and gets wrapped around the shaft. The wire can get bunched against the bearings, causing major damage. Our wire protection kit contains a welded raised area on the end of the rotor that protects the shaft and prevents wire from getting in.

Bauma Light MS972 heavy duty frame

Now completely redesigned for the 900 series Brush Mulcher, the heavy duty steel frame is constructed with T1 alloy tool steel sheet metal.

Bauma Light MS972 ENHANCED operator VISIBILITY

The improved design of the MS972 mulcher head now allows the operator better visibility to the area you are mulching.

Bauma Light MS972 IMPROVED WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

To improve the weight management of the Brush Mulcher, the MS972 is now designed with the rotor closer to the carrier. This unique design feature allows for smaller carriers to be able to manage a larger mulcher.

Bauma Light MS972 Powdered Coated

Our powder coat finish is much tougher than conventional paint to stand up to the rigors of mulching and helps prevent rusting.
