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.

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.
