Land clearing and construction attachment manufacturer 8067 FAE, has added to its UML range of excavator-mounted forestry mulchers and introduced eight rock cutters to its construction line-up at this year’s CONEXPO-CON/AGG show in Las Vegas.

FAE’s RC range of rock cutters is a new departure for the attachment firm’s construction division. There are eight models on offer, from the RC25 - which is suitable for excavators of 2.5 tonnes operating weight - to the RC320 which is suitable for excavators from 45-70 tonnes. Working widths range from 558mm to 1,245mm and the cutters use direct drive piston motors with automatic lubrication systems that require no daily maintenance.
