Features
Battle Ax Rotor
Maximum Efficiency for Vegetation Management Professionals: The new 13.5-inch-diameter Battle Ax rotor features built-in depth gauges, which function similarly to raker teeth on chain saws to prevent the attachment from engaging too much material at one time. This unique design is more ideal for managing the amount of material being fed into the attachment than competitive ring-style rotors, which many operators find to be overly limiting
Two-Stage Cutting Chamber
A One-Two Punch:
The Loftness exclusive two-stage cutting chamber provides some of the smallest particle sizes in the industry by cutting material twice. The primary shear bar is adjustable, so the clearance can be narrowed or widened depending upon the desired material size and production rate. From here, the partially reduced material passes smoothly to the secondary cutting chamber behind the front bumper, where it’s processed further before being discharged toward the ground.

DIRECT DRIVE
The hydraulic motor is directly mounted to the rotor to eliminate the hassle of drive belts and reduce overall maintenance concerns. It features a unique flexible isolation coupler to minimize stress on the motor.
HIGH-PRESSURE GEAR MOTOR
The L Series Battle Ax is available with three reliable high-pressure gear motor options for excavators with hydraulic systems ranging from 12 to 26 gallons per minute and up to 4,350 PSI (20 to 50 hydraulic horsepower). It turns the rotor from 1,800 to 2,600 RPM.
STAGGERED/SPIRAL TOOTH DESIGN
This exclusive tooth arrangement ensures single-tooth contact with the work surface at all times while maintaining optimal rotor balance.
TOOTH MOUNTING
The Quadco blades are mounted to the rotor with a single bolt. They can be easily reversed, replaced or removed on the jobsite using a common hex socket.
QUADCO PLANER BLADES
Reversible with ultra-sharp, heat-treated steel knife edges, the Quadco blades effortlessly slice through trees and vegetation, as opposed to shredding and tearing. They can be reversed on site for a fresh cutting edge, effectively doubling their service life between sharpening. The depth gauges on the Battle Ax maximize performance of these blades by preventing them from biting into too much material at one time.
ANTI-WRAP BEARING PROTECTION
The rotor ends are machined to mate with close tolerance machined anti-wrap rings, resulting in minimal debris in the bearing chamber.
SPADE HOOK
The standard heavy-duty spade hook is a useful tool for positioning material to be mulched.
