Heavy-duty: Tree & Brush Cutters > Carbide Cutter G2

Tree & Brush Cutter for Skid-steers

NEW Generation 2!

Selectively cuts trees and brush without expensive hand labor. The material can be rough-cut or finely processed to fit your job requirements.

Works on a Minimum of 48 Hydraulic Horsepower

Aggressively cuts & mulches up to 6 inch diameter material with as little as 48 hydraulic horsepower (36 kw). Intermittently cuts up to 10 inch (25 cm) or larger diameter material.

Note: Production rate will vary depending on the actual hydraulic horsepower available. A flow and pressure test is strongly recommended on your power unit before selecting a TimberAx model. Hydraulic Horsepower = Flow x Pressure x .90 ÷ 1714

The special body shape and hitch angle provide all the benefits of a moving door, without the hassle.

  • No need to add auxiliary valve and controls on skid-steer
  • No extra cylinder and hoses
  • No extra moving parts

Carbide teeth never need sharpening!


Efficient new spiral pattern assures that only one tooth contacts the work surface at a time.

Standard Carbides are used for long life and for most abusive applications. Easy to change carbide tooth uses twin carbide tips permanently mounted in pockets for added durability compared to surface-mounted carbides.

New Planer Teeth have increased productivity and a finer finished product. Note: Surface mounted carbides and sharper cutting edge are more susceptible to damage and are NOT recommended for rocky conditions.


3-groove banded belts with
spring-loaded idler and
taper-lock sheaves.


Relief valve protected, heavy-duty, hydraulic motor with external bearing block to support side-load from belt tension.

Two-Stage Cutting Chamber

Like the original Carbide Cutter and the successful Timber AX, the New Generation 2 Carbide Cutter continues the tradition of using a shear bar in a contained cutting chamber to help process material. This efficient shearing action produces the finest mulch with the lowest horsepower requirement of any carbide mulching head.

The two-stage cutting action begins with the rotor picking up material and forcing it to pass between the moving carbide teeth and the stationary counter teeth. The staggered pattern and angles of the counter teeth promote an aggressive feeding action, while still minimizing the jamming that plagues competitive cutters. The partially reduced material is then trapped in the cutting chamber behind the front bumper. Here, the material is processed to a fine mulch as it passes between the carbide teeth and the recutter bar before being discharged toward the ground.

For special applications requiring extra fine mulching, an optional 2nd shear bar can be bolted to the row of counter teeth. This dual chipping action will process the material to the finest particle size of any carbide mulching head in the industry.


Advantages

Felling Large
Standing Trees

Special body shape and hitch angle allows the cutter to be rolled back enough to expose knives to cut through the tree.
Shaving of
Large Material

Rear of cutter can be lowered to contact the trunk to control cutting depth and to help prevent logs from being ejected to the rear.
Forward Mulching
Special body shape and hitch angle allows the rear of cutter to be lowered close to ground level, trapping material in the cutting chamber to be processed between the teeth and the shear bar.
Reverse Mulching
By tilting forward as you back up, the downed material is pulled up against the counter teeth or optional shear bar for more efficient cutting and finer particle size. The built-in recutter bar assures that material is further reduced and directed toward the ground.
