Baumalight MS560 Skid Steer Mulcher | 60" Fixed Tooth Brush Mulcher

The Baumalight MS560 Skid Steer Mulcher is a 60-inch fixed-tooth brush mulcher built for skid steer and compact track loader owners who need to clear brush, fence lines, overgrowth, saplings, trails, farm lanes, hunting property, right-of-way edges, and light land-clearing jobs without moving up to a full-size forestry package.

With a 75-inch overall path width, 60-inch rotor width, 92 carbide-tipped P5000 bolt-in cutters, and a universal skid steer quick-attach mount, the Baumalight MS560 is a strong fit for landowners, farmers, landscapers, tree service contractors, property managers, and entry-level land clearing contractors who want a durable drum mulcher that can be matched to their skid steer’s hydraulic flow.

The MS560 is available with multiple bent-axis piston motor options, allowing the mulcher to be paired to standard-flow, mid-flow, and high-flow skid steers. For best performance, choose the motor that puts your machine’s hydraulic flow near the upper end of that motor’s operating range. This helps maximize rotor speed and cutting efficiency.

Hydraulic Motor Options for the Baumalight MS560

The Baumalight MS560 should be ordered with the correct bent-axis piston motor for your skid steer’s hydraulic flow. Do not choose a motor only because it has a wider range. The best motor is usually the one where your machine’s GPM is close to the top of the motor’s recommended range, because that gives the rotor the fastest head speed for that motor.

Example: If your skid steer produces 24–25 GPM, the C510 motor is usually the better pairing than moving up to a larger motor, because 25 GPM is at the top of the C510 range. If your machine produces 30 GPM, the C530 motor is the better match. If your machine produces 39–40 GPM, choose the C550 motor.

Motor Option	Best Hydraulic Flow Match	Max Rotor RPM Shown on Chart	Case Drain	Best Use Case
C508 Bent-Axis Piston	8–15 GPM	2,050 RPM at 15 GPM	Critical	Lower-flow skid steers where the machine is limited to roughly 8–15 GPM
C510 Bent-Axis Piston	12–25 GPM	2,490 RPM at 25 GPM	Critical	Standard-flow skid steers in the 20–25 GPM range

C550 Bent-Axis Piston	30–40 GPM	2,140 RPM at 40 GPM	Critical	High-flow machines around 38–40 GPM
C570 Bent-Axis Piston	35–50 GPM	2,030 RPM at 50 GPM	Critical	Very high-flow loaders around 45–50 GPM
C590 Bent-Axis Piston	45–60 GPM	1,900 RPM at 60 GPM	Critical	Extreme high-flow carriers with 50–60 GPM auxiliary hydraulics

Quick Motor Selection Guide by Skid Steer Flow

Your Skid Steer Hydraulic Flow	Recommended MS560 Motor	Why
8–15 GPM	C508	Keeps low-flow machines in the proper piston motor range.
16–25 GPM	C510	Best choice for many standard-flow skid steers, especially when flow is near 22–25 GPM.
26–30 GPM	C530	Good pairing when the machine exceeds the C510 range and can stay near the top of the C530 range.
31–35 GPM	C540	Strong choice for high-flow loaders that run in the low-to-mid 30 GPM range.
36–40 GPM	C550	Ideal for machines close to 40 GPM where rotor speed can stay high.
41–50 GPM	C570	Designed for very high-flow machines that exceed the C550 range.
51–60 GPM	C590	Best fit for extreme high-flow carriers with enough oil flow and pressure to support the larger motor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size skid steer do I need for the Baumalight MS560?

The Baumalight MS560 requires a minimum carrier weight of 5,500 lbs. You should also verify hydraulic flow, hydraulic pressure, case drain availability, lift capacity, and coupler requirements before ordering.

What hydraulic motor should I choose for the Baumalight MS560?

Choose the bent-axis piston motor that places your skid steer’s GPM near the upper end of the motor’s flow range. For example, a 24–25 GPM machine is usually best paired with the C510 motor, while a 39–40 GPM machine is usually best paired with the C550 motor.

Does the Baumalight MS560 need a case drain?

Yes. The MS560 piston motor configurations require a case drain. A case drain helps protect the motor by allowing internal leakage oil to return safely to the tank without excessive back pressure.

Can the Baumalight MS560 fit a Bobcat skid steer?

Yes, the MS560 uses a universal skid steer mount and may fit many Bobcat skid steers and compact track loaders, including machines such as the T650, T740, T770, S650, S740, and S770. Always confirm hydraulic flow, pressure, weight, and case drain compatibility.

Can the MS560 run on a standard-flow skid steer?

Yes, depending on the machine. Standard-flow machines in the 16–25 GPM range are commonly paired with the C510 bent-axis piston motor. Lower-flow machines may require the C508 motor.

Is the Baumalight MS560 good for high-flow skid steers?

Yes. The MS560 can be configured with larger bent-axis piston motors for high-flow machines. Common high-flow pairings include the C530 for 20–30 GPM, C540 for 25–35 GPM, C550 for 30–40 GPM, C570 for 35–50 GPM, and C590 for 45–60 GPM.

What is the cutting width of the Baumalight MS560?

The MS560 has a 60-inch rotor width and a 75-inch path width.

What teeth does the Baumalight MS560 use?

The MS560 uses P5000 carbide-tipped bolt-in teeth. The standard setup uses Planer-style teeth, with optional Ripper-style teeth available for certain applications.

Is the MS560 good for fence line clearing?

Yes. The MS560 is well suited for fence lines, farm cleanup, brush clearing, and small-tree mulching. The wire protection kit, fixed teeth, push bar, and heavy-duty frame make it useful for overgrown property maintenance.

Are hydraulic couplers included with the Baumalight MS560?

No. Hydraulic couplers are not included because coupler requirements vary by skid steer brand and model. Couplers should be matched to your machine before delivery.
