Loftness Tilt Hitch for excavator mulching heads
The Loftness Tilt Hitch is available for 20 and 30 series Battle Ax excavator mulching heads, allowing operators to hydraulically tilt the mulching head on the boom.
The 20 and 30 Series Battle Ax attachments are compatible with excavators ranging from 10,000 to 36,000 pounds. When equipped with the Tilt Hitch, a mulching head can be tilted up to 45 degrees to the left or right.
Tilting the mulching head allows an operator to fully expose the knives when cutting into trees. Additionally, trees can be held in place for fast mulching by tilting and positioning the head so that the shear bar rests against the tree to prevent wobbling.
When ground mulching, the head can also be tilted to keep material from ejecting from the back or to help pick material off the ground for further processing.
