Future Mulcher

[CHASBOamo]

Hello, I have a T750 and I wanted to use a Future 72" mulcher on it but it seems to buck real bad!! is the drum out of balance?

Wrong Hydraulics? switches in the wrong position?

What do you mean with "buck" ?? Could take a little video?

It just seems like the drum is out of balance.

Anybody else have a 72" Future mulcher?

Did the manufacturer have any input? Maybe they have run across this issue before.

Unfortunately, these are cheap, lightweight, import quality products.

You can check that all the teeth are approximately equal, but expecting to get good results from an $8000 mulcher compared to the major brands which sell for over $25K is probably asking a lot.

Ditto on checking with mfgr. regarding belt breakage. Speed of drum vs. obstacle bulk will affect belt life. Check that the pulley shafts haven't been bent in handling. Possibly search for a kevlar belt. Specs say it will handle an 8" tree. That might be a pine or fir tree and not a hardwood. Good luck.
