Equipment Matching
Ensure compatibility with the power unit: The first step to successfully using a Mulcher Head is to ensure it is compatible with the power unit. The three most important factors when selecting a Mulcher Head are hydraulic horsepower, weight of the power unit, and width of the Mulcher Head.
Understand The Work Zone
Site environment assessment:
Before use, the work site needs to be assessed. For example, if vegetation management is carried out in a forest area, attention should be paid to the undulations of the terrain, the distribution density of trees, etc. Different site environments may require adjustments to the operation of the Mulcher Heads.
Clear obstacles:
Large rocks, metals and other foreign objects in the work site need to be cleared in advance to avoid damage to the Mulcher Heads.
Specific operation points of Mulcher Heads
Installation and connection
Correct installation on the equipment: If the Mulcher Heads are installed on skid steers or track loaders, they need to be installed accurately according to the instructions of the equipment to ensure that the connection is firm and the hydraulic system and other connections are correct.
Operation Tips
Adjust the cutting height:
Adjust the cutting height of the Mulcher Heads according to the type of vegetation to be processed and the work requirements. For example, when mowing the lawn, the cutting height may be lower; while when clearing brush, a higher cutting height may be required.
Control the travel speed:
During operation, control the travel speed of the equipment according to the density and hardness of the vegetation. If the vegetation is dense and hard, traveling too fast may cause the Mulcher Heads to become blocked or underpowered, affecting work efficiency and results.
Uniform operation:
Maintain uniformity of operation to avoid overworking in one place and underworking in other places. This ensures consistent vegetation treatment throughout the work area.
Cleaning work
·
Cleaning vegetation residues: After use, clean the vegetation residues on the Mulcher Heads in time to prevent the residues from accumulating and corroding the equipment or affecting the performance of the next use.
Inspection and maintenance
·
Check component wear: Check whether the forestry mulcher teeth, chain, belt and other components of the Mulcher Heads are worn. If any severely worn parts are found, they should be replaced in time to ensure the normal operation of the equipment the next time it is used.
·
Check the hydraulic system: Check whether there is leakage in the hydraulic system, and repair it in time if there is any problem.
