The BL0/EX is one of the smallest fixed-tooth mulchers on the market, capable of shredding light vegetation, shrubs, and trees up to 8 cm in diameter. It can be used for maintenance along roadsides and railroad tracks, on the banks of canals, rivers and lakes, to manage and protect wildlife habitats, and for the upkeep of commercial parks and sports grounds.

Bite Limiter technology makes this head ideal for high productivity vegetation management, with reliably efficient shredding. The Bite Limiter rotor comes with wear-resistant steel profiles that limit the reach (bite) of the teeth. This cuts down on power demand and encourages a consistent working speed, for excellent performance when shredding any kind of wood. The Bite Limiter technology also minimizes rotor stalling and helps optimize fuel consumption.

The BL0/EX’s Direct Drive motor minimizes maintenance and facilitates an extremely compact design for better maneuverability. The head’s clean profile and compact build are further enabled by the hydraulic block with flow regulator valve built into the motor, as well as the thumb bracket in the frame.
