FAE SSL/MT Skid Steer Forestry Mulcher
Overview
FAE Group's SSL/MT is a fixed-tooth forestry mulcher for standard-flow skid steers, designed for land clearing in lighter vegetation conditions. Unlike their high-flow UML/SSL series, the SSL/MT works on machines with standard hydraulics, making it accessible to a broader range of skid steers. FAE is Italian-manufactured and distributed through Canadian dealers for land clearing, pipeline corridor, and right-of-way maintenance.

Is This Right For You?
✅ Buy if…
- You're processing brush, saplings, and slash in place — drum mulchers handle mixed material up to 6 inches
- Land clearing, pipeline corridor prep, or right-of-way maintenance where material stays on site
- Your machine has the high-flow hydraulics required — drum mulchers typically need 25-35+ GPM
⛔ Skip if…
- Your skid steer is standard-flow — most drum mulchers require high-flow to run efficiently
- Tree diameter exceeds 8 inches regularly — a dedicated forestry mulcher or felling head handles larger material
🔍 Also consider…
- Forestry mulcher for heavier timber and larger diameter material
- Rotary cutter or brush cutter if material size is consistently under 3 inches
Compatible with all skid steer brands and compact track loaders via universal SSQA quick attach. Mid-frame machines (S450–S650 class) are the most common fit.
