Features may include:

The Baumalight line of auger drives feature heavy duty planetary drives

Spring Bushings made from high grade chrome-vanadium AISI 6150 spring steel on all main pivot points.

Our grease pins are zinc plated to prevent corrosion which will allow for smoother operation of the units joints over their lifetime

Extra traction from anti slip strips provides improved safety as well as ease of entry and exit from the cab

Heavy duty knuckles with 1.5" to 2" pivot pins with brass bushings

All hydraulic hoses come standard with a sleeve covering and hose Armour. Hose Armour is a tough wrap which coils around the hoses and helps protect them from punctures

Hinged safety shield for easy access to change auger attachments

Baumalight’s log splitter tool can split pieces of wood and logs up to 12 feet or even 20 ft long. The bit’s bite comes from machining two helical spirals machined into two pieces of steel. The two spirals join at the hardened tip for easy boring into the log.

Baumalight’s stump planer attachment operates at a low RPM so that chips are contained during the operation with very little mess to clean up. The planer’s entry tip is hardened for extra-long wear and replaceable for a longer life. The smaller leading blade is made from AR500 steel and the larger clean up blade is made with AR400 steel. Both blades can be sharpened, lowering operating costs.
