This 2015 Barko 920 is a mulcher — a land-clearing machine designed to grind, shred, and masticate trees, brush, stumps, and other woody vegetation directly in the field. Mulchers are also commonly referred to as forestry mulchers or brush mulchers by contractors working in forestry, right-of-way clearing, site preparation, and vegetation management. Barko is a well-established American manufacturer with a long history of building heavy forestry and land-clearing equipment for professional operators in demanding environments.
The machine is fitted with a Denis Cimaf mulching attachment, a recognized name in the forestry mulching space known for its robust drum-style cutting heads. The unit shows 13,493 hours on the frame, but a significant portion of its mechanical life has been refreshed. In September 2021, at 10,868 hours, the original powerplant was replaced with a new Cummins QSB6.7 engine by ROWMEC. The hour meter now reads 2,656 hours, reflecting time accumulated on that replacement engine since installation.
More recently, in November 2024, the cooling package was rebuilt, with both a new radiator core and a new oil cooler fitted. This work addresses two of the higher-wear components in a mulching machine's thermal management system, which operates under sustained heavy load in dusty, debris-heavy conditions.
The machine is located in Texas, USA, and is listed at $120,000.
