Virnig V70 Drum Mulcher for Skid Steer

The Virnig V70 Drum Mulcher for Skid Steer is a rugged, high-efficiency attachment designed to transform dense vegetation and 14-inch trees into fine mulch while safely grinding stumps below grade. Built for professional land-clearing crews and landscapers who demand reliability and productivity.

Cut Width Options: Choose between 60" (DRM60) or 72" (DRM72) drum widths to match site size, maneuverability needs, and production goals.
Drum Construction: 18" drum with a 1.0" wall thickness, fully enclosed greaseable bearings, and anti-wrap plates to reduce wire and debris entanglement.
Teeth System: Interchangeable QuadCo bolt-on steel and carbide teeth for long wear life and precise cutting performance.
Wear-Resistant Components: AR400 bolt-on skid shoes, adjustable push bar, and replaceable AR400 wear liner for extended service life in tough terrain.
Bottom Bite Plate: Adjustable bite plate controls material discharge size, helping you tailor mulch consistency and cleanup.
Drive Options: Fixed and variable speed bent-axis piston motor options; the variable motor delivers more torque for productive stump grinding and below-grade mulching.
Factory Loader Tuning: Factory-tuned to the loader for optimal drum RPM—no motor adjustments or service tech visits required.
Safety & Diagnostics: Low-pressure oil vent safeguards, case drain connection indicator, and a rear chain curtain reduce debris thrown toward the loader and operator.
Debris Management: Rear chain curtain and anti-wrap plates help contain debris and protect your equipment and crew in demanding work zones.
Performance Specs: Max drum speed up to 2500 +/- 150 RPM; cutting capacity 14" diameter; maximum cutting depth 2"; works with 30–50 GPM high-flow hydraulics and up to 4200 PSI.
Weight & Compatibility: Approx. 2735 lb for the 60" model and 3010 lb for the 72" model; requires a high-flow loader (30–50 GPM) and a loader capable of handling the unit’s mass. Optional bite-control drums add 130 lb (60") or 155 lb (72").
Use-Case Flexibility: Whether you’re clearing tight residential lots or tackling larger commercial sites, the V70 adapts to your workflow—60" for tight spaces and quicker spin-up, or 72" for higher throughput on dense ground vegetation.

With the Virnig V70, you gain efficient, reliable mulch production and stump grinding in a single pass. The design emphasizes durability and straightforward field maintenance—interchangeable teeth, replaceable wear parts, and factory loader tuning keep you productive with minimal downtime. Ideal for landscapers, property developers, and vegetation-clearing teams who need a capable, scalable solution for sites of varying size and density. The drum mulch approach helps produce a consistent mulch product and reduces the need for secondary passes, making large clearings faster and cleaner while protecting the operator and equipment from flying debris.
