I am just getting into this line of work starting a new outfit over here in B.C. and was on the fence about the size of the 040 as well as type of mulcher but man your videos are so helpful and shed a lot of light. Going to go with this exact setup most likely now LOL. Really appreciate it man.

Im in the process of getting 040, thanks for the video, great video

So much for seeing the machine in operation!,,

This is my ideal set up. Just gotta find the funds to purchase it. My wife has already given me the go ahead on it. My local store has one set up with a fecon muncher on it sitting on their lot. I keep going by and looking at it.

Like the prelude 😁👍

A video on how you clean the machine up would be cool. Have the same machine and loving it.

My '057-4 operates fairly well with a RockHound 30EX, but I've wondered how a fixed-tooth machine would operate. Thanks for another good video.

If you had removed one bolt and the pin for the cylinder, you could have lowered the gate to get to the side you needed to. Sounds like it would have been a lot easier than taking all the other hoses off. Removing that pin and putting back in is not hard at all. Just a thought,

That's what my Platinum looks like!

Nice!!

Next time if your hose breaks with the flap fully open,just disconnect the piston from the door and let it down,you get full acces without opening the back door and disconnecting 3 hoses

It would be a huge help if you can take a video of where your case drain line on your KX040 is routed into your tank!

Could you have faced the tracks down the hill to reach that part that was farther away from the road?

Thanks for the info on the KX040-4 , for the light stuff would you consider using a lighter unit for reach on this machine ,Fred

If I was you I would send my guys back with the 8 ton with mulcher and a bucket so they could move the bolders to the edges of what you mulch. It would just make it faster next time and leave it cleaner looking.

What you guys think of Diamond Mowers? I mainly see FAE or Fecon.

To get the most life out of your driver's, always dig on the idlers. They flex, the drivers don't.

Here is a dumb question, but maybe you can help since Kubota/Napa/carquest can’t. I have a 2016 KXO 57 and I’m trying to hookup a blue diamond Extreme duty mower. I’m almost there. But I am having trouble with the flat face hydraulic couplers.. what is the size male needed for the bypass.. we have tried Oring 10 and the factor plug is misleading them all.. lol Great videos and I appreciate any help

How do you get those jobs I live in the states and just bought a kx57-5 with a multcher head.

Mind to share the cost of the FAe I. The video+?

Hey there. I'm thinking of adding the new BL1/EX/VT to my Takeuchi 257FR. Will the unit you have deal with brush/trees that have been piled up? We have been pulling trees and bush with the excavator and piling it. Was going to rent a 12" chipper, but I think the mulcher would be way quicker and easier if it can handle that situation. Thoughts??

@workplaytv

No actually the Mulcher does very poorly when the trees are already cut. It pulls the whole tree through the head because it’s not being held back by the roots.

Would you mind giving me your thoughts on the FAE head vs the Torrent, I am considering both and just curious as to why you made the decision. Thanks!

Isaiah Burch is go FAE all the way! On big reason is the VT motor

damn I thought you was at least gonna use it some.

I know this is a matter of opinion but would you recommend the mulching head for a home owner who has 80 acres of woods to clear out the underbrush or would a more frugal (half the cost) mulching head work. I have no desire to go into business...I just need to clear out the underbrush in my (currently) unmanaged forest. 1) would the 4 ton excavator be a good tool and be able to maneuver in and around dense trees and work on slopes...over a skid steer and 2) is the FAE a "must-have" or would a more frugal option be sufficient?

Does this have the variable transmission pump on the fae?

Can you just hose out does excavator cans to clean them out.

So your running this on a stock 40 with no mods. How does the case drain work. What operates the doors. Do you need the extra hydroelectric line. I want to copy your setup on a 2022 model. All help is appreciated thx
