VL Series
Light Duty Excavator Mulcher
A lightweight mulching head that punches above its class. The VL clears saplings, brush, and invasive growth for roadside upkeep and underbrush work — and because it runs drainless, there’s no case-drain line to plumb.
- No case-drain line required
- Poly-Chain® Carbon drive belt
- Hardox® 500 internal wear plate
- Drainless piston motor rated to 5,800 PSI
- Oversized axles and bearings
- Bolt-in counter blade for quick swaps
