2022 Caterpillar Mulchers HM2615 Forestry Mulcher

Cat® forestry mulchers have industry-leading features to ensure you are getting the best productivity from a mulcher for tracked and wheeled excavators, all while keeping your work environment and equipment safe.

Features may include:

• Cut trees up to 152 mm (6 in) in diameter with the HM2615 and up to 305 mm (12 in) with the HM4015.

• Two rotor types:

• Standard – rotor with teeth only

• Bite limiter – rotor with teeth separated by ribs to help prevent rotor stalling and creates finer shredded materials

• Variable torque hydraulic piston motor shifts between high speed, low torque and low speed, high torque to give you speed when you need it and power when it counts.

• Brackets allow the mulchers to be mounted on different excavators.

• HM2615 – 11-16 ton tracked excavators, 13-17 ton wheeled excavators

• HM4015 – 16-26 ton tracked excavators, 18-22 ton wheeled excavators

• The staggered tooth design reduces stalling and jamming

• Mulcher teeth options vary by application and preference on final material size:

• Standard: Most commonly used option. Fairly fine final product used where there is minimal rock present and durability is needed.

• Rock Crushing: Larger final product, but can work in applications where rocks are present.

• Bite Limiter: Very fine final product due to aggressive edge of the blade with the limiters and counter knives. Use where rocks are minimal and there are large amounts of standing timber.

• Hardened Counter Blades reduce finished material size and increase the rate of composting.

• Access internal components quickly and easily with bolt-on service panels.

• Poly Chain Belt driven transmission eliminates slippage on startup, reducing maintenance costs.

• The motor is integrated into the frame to protect it from dust, damage, and impact from falling debris.

• Ensure service panel security with access bolts recessed into the panel, protecting them from debris.

• Get back to work faster with field-replaceable wear parts

• Hydraulic Mulching door keeps the work environment and equipment safe by dispersing materials according to your application and surroundings.

• The mulching door operation is controlled by electric diverter valve or medium pressure hydraulic kits from the cab.

• Door closed – right of way clearing, near powerlines and pipelines, and roadside maintenance.

• Door open – vegetation management, jobsite clearing, forest wood fuel removal, and firebreaks.

• Flow control valve protects the motor from excessive flow

• Ground level primary grease points keep you safe while performing daily maintenance

• Bolt-on, replaceable skids keep the mulcher from going into the ground or into materials expediting wear or causing damage.

• Never waste time looking for your attachments again. Cat PL161 Attachment Locator is available on most attachments.

• Track your entire fleet of attachments and machines from one source. Attachments with asset tracking can be viewed within VisionLink® alongside Product Link™ subscribed equipment.

• Keep your assets secure. Attachments with an asset tracker send an alert if they leave an easy-to-setup site boundary.
