2023 - Barko 930B Mulcher

About this machine

This Barko 930B Mulcher is a used mulcher — sometimes referred to as a forestry mulcher or land clearing machine — configured as a complete carrier-and-head package ready for heavy vegetation management, right-of-way clearing, and site preparation work. Barko is a well-established American manufacturer with a long history of building purpose-built forestry and land-clearing equipment, including feller bunchers, carriers, and mulching systems for the logging, utility, and land management industries. This 2023 machine is located in Florida, USA, and is listed at $425,000.

The carrier is powered by a Cummins QSL 8.9-litre Tier 4 Final engine producing 320 horsepower at 2,200 RPM, paired with a variable displacement pump and motor for efficient hydraulic power delivery. Fuel capacity stands at 127 gallons (481 litres), supported by a 10-gallon (38-litre) DEF tank to meet emissions requirements. The undercarriage runs on hydraulic axles with differential lock and foot-pedal-operated hydraulic wet disc brakes, and the machine is fitted with 67Lx34-26 Primex 20-ply tyres. A remote-mounted cooler with an auto-reversing fan manages system temperatures during sustained operation, and an in-cab hydraulic pressure diagnostics system allows the operator to monitor the hydraulic circuit without leaving the seat.

The certified operator's cab is equipped with air conditioning, a heater, and an AM/FM radio with CD player. Visibility and control are supported by nine external LED cab lights providing 360-degree illumination, an air knife windshield cleaning system, left-hand joystick steering, a rear-view camera with monitor, and an MD4 7-inch touchscreen display. An onboard air compressor with filter and quick connect, a high-pressure filter on the auxiliary circuit, and link arms configured for a 2,000-pound hydraulic winch round out the carrier specification.

The mulching head is a Prinoth M650H-2350, designed for hydraulic carriers in the 250–450 horsepower range. It has a working width of 92.5 inches and an overall width of 110.2 inches, with a machine weight of 8,370 pounds. Hydraulic volume flow starts from 63 GPM. The head is driven by dual Bosch 170cc heavy-duty hydraulic motors and fitted with a UPT-style rotor using UPTs04 teeth for aggressive material processing. A hydraulic flap with counter blades manages discharge, while bolt-in wear liners with counter blades and replaceable lower skids protect the head during ground-contact operation. The head attaches via a Barko 4-point mounting system and is further equipped with a heavy-duty hydraulic push bar and standard skids. Foot travel control is included on the carrier for precise positioning during cutting operations.
