The new SFM/PT can shred trees and vegetation up to a diameter of 14 in., crush stones up to a diameter of 8 in., and cut buried stumps up to a diameter of 18 in. It can work down to a maximum depth of 12 in.

FAE is broadening the fields of application for the PT300 tracked carrier with the introduction of the new SFM/PT multitask attachment, which can shred wood, crush stones and cut stumps or roots, all in one head.

The new SFM/PT can shred trees and vegetation up to a diameter of 14 in., crush stones up to a diameter of 8 in., and cut buried stumps up to a diameter of 18 in. It can work down to a maximum depth of 12 in.

This model is recommended for managing woodlands and forests, for creating firebreaks and for working near electrical lines or oil and gas pipelines. Due to its ability to work below the topsoil, it also is ideal for clearing or converting wooded or stony land.

The key features of this head include the interchangeable wear-resistant Hardox inner plates, the hydraulic hood for effective control of the dimensions of the final product, the transmission with side gearbox which maximizes power to the rotor and the adjustable Hardox counter blade.

The SFM/PT joins the other heads available for the PT300 carrier: forestry mulchers, forestry tillers, stump cutters and dozer blades.
