WARNING

Pressurized  fluids  can  penetrate  the 

skin�

Disconnect and lock out power source 

before disconnecting and/or connecting 

hydraulic hoses�

The mulcher is equipped with short hoses that 

are connected to the hydraulic motor. You must 

connect your skidsteer hoses to these hoses. 

Hydraulic couplers are not provided with the 

mulcher. You must install couplers and connect 

your skidsteer pressure, return and case drain 

hoses to the mulcher hoses.  Install your couplers 

to the hoses listed in the table below.

4�1 Hydraulics

4�4 Optional Two Speed Motor Setup

The optional two speed motor requires fine tuning 

to the flow provided by the carrier machine. 

The  fine  tuning  will  need  to  be  performed  in  the 

field  while  operating  in  conditions  where  normal 

work will be performed. 

Baumalight recommends this be done by the 

Dealer or Territory Sales Rep.

An RPM meter is required. Open cover and 

place  reflective  tape  (A)  on  bearing  end  of 

shaft. Measuring shaft speed on the bearing 

end will provide the most accurate results.
