MU-O Vario mulchers

MU-Vario® system

Allows you to tailor the mulcher's performance to the specific conditions - thanks to optimised material pickup and body geometry, and stepless adjustment of cutting and shredding settings.

Stone throwing certificate issued by TÜV Nord

Müthing, in cooperation with TÜV NORD, has successfully tested all mulchers with a working width of up to 3.2 m for objects thrown during operation. As a result, safety distances are reduced to 2 m on the sides and 8 m in front and behind the machine.

Starinth® Support Roller Bearing

Heavy-duty Müthing support roller bearing system. The bearing is permanently lubricated, protected by a labyrinth seal and mounted in a star-shaped contour that prevents the bearing from distorting. The star-shaped design reduces impacts on the bearing, thus optimizing the bearing life.

Shark fin shredding strips with shark fins

The system ensures even shredding of all plant residues: longer materials are returned for additional processing, and once properly shredded, they immediately move on.

Functionalities

Can be used all year round - for branches, vegetation and leaf pruning.
Compact design and low centre of gravity for safe working on slopes and manoeuvring short sections at the back of the field
The optimised shape of the inlet and body ensures a smooth flow of material, even for difficult jobs such as large amounts of greenery or pruning debris.
Customisable equipment options allow fitting to a wide range of tractors.
"The Vario system (standard equipment) allows individual adjustment of the cutting length.
DuraX M-shaped hammers ensure durability and the highest mulching quality.
The short Shark fin shredding bar ensures optimal material flow and excellent mulching results.
The optional raking belt collects the clippings and pruning residues, even in tractor passages.
The optional guide plate ensures a smooth flow of material without blockages.

Why do Müthing mulchers exceed expectations?

Every detail is designed to work together to create the perfect mulcher for your fields.

1. Safe working environment with Müthing: special hardened steel spring valves protects you, your employees and your equipment. They effectively contain foreign objects and reduce potential damage.

2. Stone throwing certificate from the Technical Inspection Association (TÜV Nord). Tests have been carried out to ensure that your safety and that of others in the mulcher's working area are guaranteed. The safety distances have been reduced to 2 m on the sides of the machine and to 8 m in front and behind.

3. Müthing mulchers are made of high-quality fine-grained steel – a guarantee of strength and durability. The lighter design reduces the load on the tractor and protects the soil from compaction.

4. Shark fin shredding tape with shark fin design – self-cleaning and easy to replace. The system ensures uniform shredding of all crop residues: longer materials are returned for additional processing, and those that are already properly shredded are immediately transported further. The result is a uniform quality result across the entire field.

5. Mechanical side push – easy adjustment of the mulcher to the tractor tracks or working position. Adjustment is done manually, without additional requirements for the tractor equipment.

6. Hydraulic side shift – convenient work around obstacles, trees and ditch edges. The tractor remains on safe ground, while the mulcher works nearby – where it needs to be reached.

Freewheeling in the gearbox or hydraulic motor protects the PTO system from damage during sudden braking

7. Free play in the gearbox or hydraulic motor Protects the PTO system from damage during sudden braking. This eliminates the possibility of incorrect operation of the drive system.

8. Front-rear mounting bracket – a flexible choice that allows you to mount the mulcher where it is most convenient: at the front or at the back. No complicated additional adjustments – everything is according to your working needs and tractor type.

Muthing advantages for special crops (10-16)

9. Synthetic lubricant supply ensures that machinery is always properly lubricated and has excellent resistance to temperature fluctuations as standard.

10. Starinth® support shaft bearing - is the heavy-duty Müthing support shaft bearing system. The bearing is permanently lubricated, protected by a labyrinth seal and mounted in a star-shaped contour that prevents the bearing from distortion. The star-shaped design minimises impacts on the bearing, optimising bearing life.

11. Vertically adjustable support roller allows the mulcher to be adapted to different working depth settings. Both minimally shredded plant residues and lush green lawns are easily achieved.

12. Tangential tool holders – better impact protection and longer service life. They allow the rotor to smoothly overcome obstacles, and the longer weld seam ensures a stronger connection of the brackets and reduces the risk of them breaking.

13. Double helix rotor – lower costs and longer service life. Smooth operation reduces fuel consumption and protects the drive system, extending the service life of the gearbox and PTO shafts. Internal bearings and wide covers not only protect against foreign objects, but also prevent crop mass from wrapping around the rotor.

14. "M" hammers high wear resistance and powerful performance. Whether you're looking to cut grass cleanly or shred shrubs, the M-shaped hammers give you plenty of work options.

15. "M" shaped hanging hammers used where frequent contact with foreign objects is likely. Hinges give the hammers the necessary clearance to avoid foreign objects. This prevents damage and ensures smooth operation.

16. Triple Y-type knives - lower power consumption and less dust. These blades are easily interchangeable with M hammers and allow you to work cleaner and more economically, reducing air and dust movement.

MU-Vario® system allows you to tailor the mulcher's performance to the specific conditions - thanks to optimised material pickup and body geometry, and stepless adjustment of cutting and shredding settings.

Starinth® Support Roller Bearing

A premium, ultra-durable, heavy-duty rear roller bearing system with multi-layer sealing technology and a high-capacity double tapered roller bearing that meets even the most demanding requirements.

External anti-twist protection between the roller and the side shield of the chopper. Prevents the ingress of coarse dirt.
Lubricated mechanical labyrinth for protection against dirt, sludge, plant debris and moisture.
A multi-layer labyrinth of small spring steel rings is lubricated, protecting against fine dust and moisture residues.
Sealed heavy-duty double tapered roller bearing.

Pre-mounted bearing system in a sturdy cast metal housing designed to bolt with a free-running star shaft to the side wall. This provides better resistance to shocks and side loads when working in harsh conditions on hard and uneven surfaces, during intensive work or mowing at high speeds.

Robust – Durable – Long-lasting – Easy-to-maintain system

Müthing mulchers – certified by TÜV Nord for the distance of thrown objects

European agricultural machinery manufacturers are required to manufacture their equipment in compliance with the CE Machinery Directives.
The CE marking represents a self-declaration that the equipment complies with all applicable CE directives.
One of these CE directives: "Test and acceptance criteria for ejected objects for mulchers according to ISO/WD 17101-2".
The independent and accredited body TÜV Nord assessed and awarded this certificate to Müthing products.
Maximum safety and worry-free work - by maintaining safety distances: 8 meters in front and behind, 2 meters on the right and left sides.
