Baumalight MS572 Skid Steer Mulcher | 72" Fixed Tooth Brush Mulcher

The Baumalight MS572 Skid Steer Mulcher is a 72-inch fixed-tooth brush mulcher built for skid steers and compact track loaders that need serious clearing width, strong rotor momentum, and a hydraulic motor matched to the machine’s flow rate. With an 87-inch path width, 72-inch rotor width, 112 carbide-tipped P5000 bolt-in cutters, and a universal skid steer quick-attach mount, the MS572 is designed for clearing brush, saplings, fence lines, trails, farm lanes, hunting property, right-of-way edges, and overgrown acreage.

The Baumalight MS572 is a strong fit for operators who want a wider mulching head than the MS560 while staying in Baumalight’s 500 Series fixed-tooth mulcher lineup. It gives contractors, farmers, landowners, and property managers a wide, productive drum mulcher that can be configured for a wide range of skid steer hydraulic systems using Baumalight’s bent-axis piston motor options.

Important hydraulic note: For best performance, choose the motor that places your skid steer’s GPM near the upper end of that motor’s operating range. Running near the high end of the correct motor range helps increase rotor speed, which can improve cutting efficiency, recovery speed, and overall mulching productivity.

Hydraulic Motor Options for the Baumalight MS572

The Baumalight MS572 should be paired with the correct bent-axis piston motor based on your skid steer’s auxiliary hydraulic flow. Do not automatically choose the largest motor. The best choice is usually the motor where your machine’s GPM lands near the top of the motor’s flow range. That gives the mulcher the best opportunity to maintain fast rotor speed and recover quickly after engaging brush.

Example: A 24–25 GPM skid steer should usually be paired with the C510 motor rather than moving up to a larger motor, because 25 GPM is at the top of the C510 range. A 30 GPM machine is better matched with the C530. A 39–40 GPM machine is better matched with the C550.

Motor Option	Best Flow Match	Top Charted Flow Point	Case Drain	Best Fit
C508 Bent-Axis Piston	8–15 GPM	15 GPM	Critical	Lower-flow skid steers that cannot support larger motor options
C510 Bent-Axis Piston	12–25 GPM	25 GPM	Critical	Standard-flow skid steers in the 20–25 GPM range

C550 Bent-Axis Piston	30–40 GPM	40 GPM	Critical	High-flow machines around 37–40 GPM
C570 Bent-Axis Piston	35–50 GPM	50 GPM	Critical	Very high-flow loaders around 45–50 GPM
C590 Bent-Axis Piston	45–60 GPM	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 MS572 Motor	Why This Pairing Makes Sense
8–15 GPM	C508	Best match for lower-flow machines where the skid steer cannot support a larger motor.
16–25 GPM	C510	Strong choice for standard-flow machines, especially when flow is near 22–25 GPM.
26–30 GPM	C530	Good pairing once the machine exceeds the C510 range and can run near the top of the C530 range.
31–35 GPM	C540	Best fit for high-flow machines running in the low-to-mid 30 GPM range.
36–40 GPM	C550	Ideal for high-flow compact track loaders that can stay close to the top of the C550 range.
41–50 GPM	C570	Better fit for very high-flow machines that exceed the C550 range.
51–60 GPM	C590	Best option for extreme high-flow carriers with enough oil flow and pressure to support the largest motor.

Who Should Buy the Baumalight MS572?

The Baumalight MS572 is a strong choice for operators who want a wide skid steer drum mulcher for clearing brush, small trees, trails, fence rows, overgrown fields, farm lanes, hunting property, and right-of-way edges. Its 72-inch rotor width makes it especially attractive for full-size compact track loaders that need to cover ground faster than a narrower mulcher.

This skid steer mulcher is ideal for:

• Farm and ranch property maintenance
• Fence line and field edge clearing
• Trail and hunting property maintenance
• Landscape and land management contractors
• Tree service companies
• Right-of-way cleanup
• Brush and sapling removal
• Entry-level land clearing contractors

Planer Teeth vs. Ripper Teeth

The Baumalight MS572 uses P5000 carbide-tipped bolt-in cutters. Baumalight’s 500 Series mulchers are commonly offered with Planer and optional Ripper tooth styles. Planer-style teeth are designed to take smaller bites and create efficient cutting and mulching. Ripper-style teeth have more of a shredding action and are often preferred when working around fence lines, rocky areas, or applications with more ground contact.

Why Buy the Baumalight MS572 from Skid Steer Store?

At Skid Steer Store, we help match the mulcher to your machine before you buy. The Baumalight MS572 has multiple hydraulic motor options, and choosing the wrong motor can reduce rotor speed, cutting efficiency, and overall performance. Our team can help confirm your machine’s hydraulic flow, pressure, case drain setup, coupler requirements, and carrier weight so you can order the right MS572 configuration the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size skid steer do I need for the Baumalight MS572?

The Baumalight MS572 requires a minimum carrier weight of 6,000 lbs. You should also confirm hydraulic flow, pressure, case drain availability, coupler requirements, and lift capacity before ordering.

What hydraulic motor should I choose for the Baumalight MS572?

Choose the bent-axis piston motor that puts your skid steer’s GPM near the upper end of the motor’s flow range. For example, 24–25 GPM is usually best paired with the C510, 30 GPM with the C530, 35 GPM with the C540, and 39–40 GPM with the C550.

Does the Baumalight MS572 require a case drain?

Yes. The MS572 requires a case drain. The case drain helps protect the piston motor by allowing internal leakage oil to return safely to the tank without excessive back pressure.

Can the Baumalight MS572 run on a standard-flow skid steer?

Yes, depending on the machine’s flow and weight. Standard-flow machines in the 16–25 GPM range are commonly paired with the C510 motor. However, because the MS572 is a wide 72-inch mulcher, performance will be better on machines with stronger hydraulic flow and adequate carrier weight.

Is the Baumalight MS572 good for high-flow skid steers?

Yes. The MS572 can be configured with larger bent-axis piston motors for high-flow machines. Common high-flow pairings include the C530 for 26–30 GPM, C540 for 31–35 GPM, C550 for 36–40 GPM, C570 for 41–50 GPM, and C590 for 51–60 GPM.

What is the cutting width of the Baumalight MS572?

The Baumalight MS572 has a 72-inch rotor width and an 87-inch path width.

How many teeth are on the Baumalight MS572?

The MS572 uses 112 P5000 carbide-tipped bolt-in cutters.

Can the MS572 fit a Bobcat skid steer or compact track loader?

Yes, the MS572 uses a universal skid steer quick-attach mount and may fit many Bobcat machines, including models such as the T650, T740, T770, T870, S650, S740, S770, and S850. Always confirm hydraulic flow, pressure, carrier weight, lift capacity, couplers, and case drain compatibility.

Are hydraulic couplers included with the Baumalight MS572?

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.

What is the difference between the Baumalight MS560 and MS572?

The MS572 is the wider model. The MS560 has a 60-inch rotor width and 75-inch path width, while the MS572 has a 72-inch rotor width and 87-inch path width. The MS572 also has more cutters and a higher minimum carrier weight requirement.
