Brush shredder attaches to small excavator or backhoe
RockHound Attachments has added the BrushHound 30 Brush Shredder to its line of attachments. This machine has numerous advantages, including armour plate construction, T1 skid shoes, 18 two-pound blades with a blade cost of only $75 per hour. It features a direct-drive gear-type hydraulic motor that only requires eight gpm at 3,000 psi, and weighs only 550 pounds. This shredder can mount to a mini excavator or compact backhoe.

The BrushHound 30 allows more mounting options. It comes pressure tested and ready for work with hydraulic hoses and quick couplers. You can safely shred and mulch four-inch material quickly, while sitting in the cab, with no hand clean-up. Like all BrushHound excavator backhoes, the brush shredder is powered solely by the machine’s thumb or hammer circuit with no case drain requirement.
