Thanks Tim!! You showed the viewers the MP348 Mulcher on your 2038 JD. and my grandsons put BIG bugs in my ear to get one too. So I got the MP 360 for my 3046r JD. I have land boundaries to clean up and Deere lanes to clear as well. Just harvested some pines off the property two weeks ago. I have a 2 year old grandson who loves watching your shows.

Tim they need to come up with a system that is like a backup camera. That way you don’t have to turn around all the time! Whatcha think 🤔?!

[@sambarnard717]

Hi Tim. I’m fairly new to your channel, and really enjoy your content. I wanted to mention that when you adjust a slip clutch, you need to return it to the factory setting after it cools down. The coefficient of friction of the lining material decreases when it gets hot necessitating the adjustment in spring force to compensate. Once the friction linings cool off they return to their natural coefficient of friction so you need to adjust the spring force back to avoid disabling the slip clutch.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

We cooled it down (with water) before we adjusted it. Not sure if that is acceptable or not.

[@brucealvarez9263]

"I wonder if that's what we're supposed to shut the gate for". RTFM Tim!!! ;) With the speed that big stuff is shooting forward I'd worry about mechanical things under the tractor getting hit and broken. That elm will look really nice standing out on its own.

Tim I must say again I am very sorry for your loss. It seenms you had a close relationship with your father. My family was very combative, one reason did not marry. Thankfully your father passed on an ability to have family. I do not discount Christi's part in this either. My mother's cat just died Sunday. She was the last living tie to my mother. You and Christi together warm my heart and heal my soul. Christi is strikingly brave behind the camera, or when she tackles new equipment. Her camera work precludes seeing much of a stellar member of your team. God bless you all.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Thanks for the kind and thoughtful words!

[@khtractors]

I’m thinking that if the top link had been shortened just a little that maybe it wouldn’t have let the brush jerk under the tractor hardly as much. If you notice it’s tilted more towards the rear which is making a bigger gap between the ground and mulcher to allow brush to come forward under the machine. Not sure it would make a difference but would be worth trying. Great Demonstration!

[@jeffschaefer4579]

I would use your approach Tim as well. Speaking from experience while backing over brush and small trees with a Woodmaxx 72H flail mower with hammer ( duck foot shaped) knives it does a wonderful job. But only go so far then pull forwards and take down to ground level. I had a small tree about 1 inch go thru the slotted holes on the skid plate ripped it down and broke a fuel line.

[@claychristian05]

Great video! I want a mulcher so bad for my 5075E I think you guys should try a hydraulic top link and shorten the top when you back into brush and extend it when you go forward I think that would help a lot of the brush from swinging under the tractor😀 awesome machine!!!!!

[@johnthomson9558]

Time for the tractor time with Tim field day,

[@brandonmcalister1205]

8 year mulcher here operating dedicated carriers. Try a hydraulic third link and pitch the mulcher down a few degrees when going forward with the door closed. I think you will get more bite and it will lift the chains out of the way to grab the debris vs dragging it.

[@RCPSU4]

When I saw some of those "javelins" as they were being called, I thought firewood. Still that mulcher is a mean one. The 5410 did amazing with it and your 5075 should handle it just as well.

[@AP-xq3jm]

How much did the mulcher cost?

[@darrenburch3326]

Love this tool

[@wmnapier]

The best way to cut the bigger stuff would be to lift the mulcher up in the air 2 feet then back over the big tree until it cuts it off. Then you will be over top of the stump, then drop the mulcher down onto the stump grinding it away. The reason for doing it this way is when you got the mulcher all the way down at the start it grabs the biggest part of the stump to soon.

[@dougthegrouch]

Tim, you've probably talked more people into buying tractors than any given number the salemen at the dealerships. You mentioned a few videos back about a shortage of compact and subcompact tractors. The local dealership (Monticello) had 20+ tractors 2 years ago when i bought mine. Drove there to get a part 2 days ago and there 7. (1) 102xR, (1) 3039R w/cab, (3) 40xxR 2 w/cab and 1 w/o, (2) 50xxR w/cabs. Few implements and NO USED TRACTORS ON THE LOT!

These Baumalight units have me really interested. Thanks for demonstrating them. Maybe they could put some type of recirculation plate on the back to minimize throw back. I'm afraid of hydraulic lines and filters getting knocked off. I know Denis Cimaf heads have disks which reduce bite per revolution to reduce grabbing this, kind of like rakers on a chainsaw blade. Denis doesn't make tractor heads though. Even with these features, the skidsteers running them still have demo doors installed. I have a bunch of huge mount of autumn olives taking over an upper pasture, and spreading to the lower pasture, and some hickory saplings. My brush hog has a heart attack going through them, and most it won't even touch. Sounds like I'm grinding up a Volkswagen. I'd like to get an MP348 to clear them out. I have an NH TC30 which should work.

A Fecon mulcher on a track loader does a much better job. That just looks like the tractor cannot handle the mulcher. I would hate to be backing up all of the time.

[@b.ohlenschlager8985]

When you go over standing trees, you have to open the back flap, if you are mulching laying trees forward, you have to close it, the Woodchips are getting smaller and you prevent that pieces of wood and stones are flying all around.

Hi Tim thanks for your reviews, great. I am wondering about the bigger Baumalight mulcher. If I open up a field with brush on it what about getting roots totally out of the ground or mulching and going over it again and a again do think the roots will die. Thanks Dave in Canada

[@jammin60psd]

I think some of the issues with it being so violent in grabbing brush is two issues. On most other muchers you might only have two rows of knives or carbides in a spiral pattern around the drum and for lower HP machines they use depth limiting rings to reduce the "bite" of the cutters. Also I think backing in to a stand with the cutter all the way down on the first pass allows for there to be enough pressure of the ground to keep it engaged to the cutter and pull it rapidly through. (Think feed rollers on a wood planer) and that starting with the cutter higher then working it down as the pieces get smaller to produced better results. Most CTL mulchers work their machines this way.

[@jwbeaton]

I agree, watching forestry mulching businesses, they usually do a first pass higher up, then go back in at ground level, I think it was sucking in too much at once.

[@billfenner7084]

It sure does work fast. Also it doesn't leave much for the clean up.

How do you think the MP560 would work on grinding pine stumps in the 10"-12" range to 1" below grade with a 75 HP John Deere 5075E? I am having 3 acres of pine forest timbered. I was wondering if I cut the pine stumps with my chain saw to ground level, would the MP560 be able to grind the remaining stump to 1" below ground level?

[@TractorTimewithTim]

It works. However, the gear drive aspect of the 5075e is not good. A hydrostatic tractor is much more effective.

We bought an old farm last year. 35 acres of fence line to clear and 10 acres of pasture to reclaim. So far, my wife has done about 4 acres by hand. She got injured and is wanting machinery to finish the job and showed me this video. Since we're still in the gut & add onto phase of fixing the 100+ year old house and the barn needs a new roof, it will be awhile before we can afford equipment to clear the fence lines and reclaim the pasture edgess.

[@jessewalters7046]

Tim, does it bug you that those 3pt pto mulching heads all have gearboxes on one side that are exposed to standing brush/trees beyond the cutter head. Too bad there isn't a way to tuck that behind the head so that isn't getting beat up on standing brush. I suppose after your initial push into the brush, you could work away from the gearbox, but that seems like one advantage of skid-steer hydraulic units. Keep up the great videos!

Tim, I was watching one of your older videos "stick a fork in it" and i think you should take a look at getting a walk behind or straddle stacker.

That piece of equipment is a hazard!

[@5critters]

Yep, even after they said they closed the gate it was throwing stuff under the tractor and out the front at a pretty high velocity. I like what a local guy has -- a skid steer with a forestry disk mulcher mounted on the *front*. I hired him a little over a year ago to do a few hours' work out here. A lot easier to use, not having to go in reverse, and while it throws stuff off to the side, it's not hazardous to the skid steer itself. Yeah, getting a skid steer + the disk mulcher means spending right much more money than simply buying a tractor implement, but it does a lot better job without the danger to your equipment. He stays pretty busy hiring himself out with that thing I believe, so it's paying for itself over time. I'm going to get him out here again before too long, to cut some paths through the woods across the road.

[@don_sharon]

I have a t4.75 New Holland and I would never use that machine to clear. I bet I would replacing pierced power steering hoses, prying wood from my 4WD assembly, replacing pierced hydraulic filters, etc. For the cost of that unit, I'll rent a skid steer with a brush clearing unit and be done with it with lots of cash left over.

That mulcher does a good job of clearing the trees, but I would be worried about some of the wood hitting and flatting a tire or two while working in that area and that larger tractor does help in that type of work. One guy in my area had a tractor about that size and had a brush hog behind it which did a great job of clearing brush and small trees growing along the power lines. He was working for the area electric company and must have made plenty of money clearing the area along the route and made more than enough money to keep his equipment working just fine. The tractor and mulcher cleaned up that small area quite nicely and the material was ripped up perfectly and turned into mulch where your tractor and brush hog could take care of the rest and I would like rent such a machine to clear some land we have which has been growing up for a long time and too much for my tractor to do alone.

The Bauma-Light seems to be a compromise attachment, meaning there are much better attachments available, but they are for either a purpose built machine or a skidsteer. An articulating forestry mulcher would do more work in short order, but doesn't do anything but mulching and is a $1M machine.
