2025 Loftness Timber Ax™ 83AX

Because of its unique reverse rotor rotation, the Timber Ax mulching head delivers results with more efficiency. Keeping the cutting action of the hardened steel alloy blades off the ground enables the Timber Ax to take on dense brush and trees in one pass with less horsepower…even trees as large as 10 inches in diameter. This design also reduces the amount of blade contact with the ground to increase blade life.

A unique combination of features allows the Timber Ax to slice through vegetation faster than many other mulching heads available.

The Timber Ax comes standard with a 2-year warranty. Simply purchase a Timber Ax, and you’ll be automatically enrolled in a warranty that’s twice as long as most others are willing to offer.

The 17-inch-diameter Timber Ax rotor turns upward, unlike most mulching heads, to keep the cutting action away from the ground. This helps maintain rotor energy and reduce knife wear, while processing brush, branches and trees into a consistent particle size.

The Timber Ax rotor has two rows of ultra-sharp hardened steel knives. The rigid, pocket-style knife mounts help make it easy to sharpen the blades on the machine. They can also be easily replaced if damaged.

An adjustable shear bar allows operators to adjust the particle sizes created.

Features may include:

• The 17-inch-diameter Timber Ax rotor spins at 1,700 RPM in an upward rotation.

• The Timber Ax rotor has two rows of ultra-sharp hardened steel knives. The rigid, pocket-style knife mounts help make it easy to sharpen the blades on the machine. They can also be easily replaced if damaged.

• The high-pressure gear motor is a reliable, cost-effective workhorse for use with hydraulic systems ranging from 22-40 GPM and 40-85 hydraulic horsepower.

• A four-groove banded belt system with spring-loaded idler efficiently transfers power to the rotor.

• Rotor ends are machine turned to mate with close tolerance, machined anti-wrap rings, which minimize debris in the bearing chamber.

• The skid shoes are adjustable from 1 to 3 inches.

• Constructed with integrated, welded claw hooks, the bar helps push falling trees and brush away from the power unit, while also allowing them to be properly positioned for efficient feeding into the head.

• An integrated PSI gauge that monitors the hydraulic load is positioned for easy viewing from the skid steer cab. It helps keep the Timber Ax at the optimum hydraulic load for peak performance throughout an application.

• All body components are laser cut from premium strength steel. Also, abrasion resistant steel is used in high-wear areas

• Running the entire length of the mulching attachment, steel deflector chains improve safety by reducing flying debris.

• The universal mount allows the Battle Ax to be easily used with any brand or model of skid steer or compact track loader.
