Forestry Equipment Guide
The Terex ASV PT-100 forestry compact track loader with a HD7460B mulcher combines all the key ingredients for high-production and high-quality brush mulching. The 99.9 hp (74.5 kW) loader offers low ground pressure with added traction for working in dense undergrowth or difficult terrain.
The purpose-built HD7460B drum-style mulcher has a cutting width of 60 in. (152 cm), a spiral configuration to the cutting drum, and 45 cutting teeth to quickly process trees and brush to any texture. The more compact cutter housing keeps the cutter close to the machine for better weight distribution and balance, according to the manufacturer.
The unit features a new 110 cc 2-speed drive system that uses a poly-chain cog belt for transfer of power to the drum.
The entire system is protected by a premium forestry guarding and complies with the applicable operator protection standards for forestry applications of this type of machine.
