Gravel road bases are about to get a new smoothing-out treatment with the MTL, a multi-purpose light-stone crusher from Italian firm FAE. The MTL fits between the small RSL for tractors with 60-142kW of power and the medium MTM for tractors with power between 179-268kW. The MTL was developed for customers with 104kW to 179kw tractors who need soil stabilisation, rock slab grinding, stone crushing and asphalt shredding at a maximum depth of 280mm.

Base leveller: FAE’s MTL stone crusher
Gravel road bases are about to get a new smoothing-out treatment with the MTL, a multi-purpose light-stone crusher from Italian firm 8067 FAE.


The MTL fits between the small RSL for tractors with 60-142kW of power and the medium MTM for tractors with power between 179-268kW.

The MTL was developed for customers with 104kW to 179kw tractors who need soil stabilisation, rock slab grinding, stone crushing and asphalt shredding at a maximum depth of 280mm.

Internal frame guards are secured with screws both centrally and on the sides to ensure the MTL is robust and reliable. Flexibility of use is ensured by a variable geometry crushing chamber, an adjustable grid on rear door and an adjustable Hardox counter-blade.

The depth gauge has been redesigned to help operators efficiently monitor depth. A height-adjustable gearbox allows adjustments regardless of the size of the tractor and the operating angle.

There are also interchangeable internal anti-wear plates made of Hardox.

Options include a hydraulic top link, a water spray system and a rotor that can be equipped with different teeth.
