It combines a rock crusher, a tiller, and a mulcher in a single unit and was designed for trail construction, small-scale road construction, earthwork, forestry work, and maintenance tasks.<\/p><h2>For which excavators is the EC-S suitable?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The EC-S is designed for mini excavators and compact excavators weighing approximately 2 to 5 tons.<\/p><h2>What makes the EC-S unique?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The EC-S is the only rock crusher in this class of excavators. It brings the technology of the large PTH excavator attachments to the mini-excavator and can not only mulch but also process rock and hard materials.<\/p><h2>How deep does the EC-S penetrate the soil?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Thanks to the protruding rotor, the EC-S can work up to 6 cm deep into the soil. This actively cuts, breaks up, and processes the existing material.<\/p><h2>What is the leveling flap used for?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The grading blade can be used much like an excavator bucket. It is used for placing, spreading, and finishing material. This is a clear advantage, especially in trail construction and small-scale path building.<\/p><h2>Is the EC-S suitable for trail building?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Yes. The EC-S was specifically designed for trail construction, trail restoration, and trail maintenance. It is suitable for MTB trails, bike parks, hiking trails, bike paths, footpaths, and hard-to-reach areas.<\/p><h2>What materials can the EC-S process?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The EC-S can process, grind, crush, mulch, and mix stone, soil, roots, wood, shrubs, and hard materials.<\/p><h2>Which customers benefit most from EC-S?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The EC-S is particularly appealing to trail builders, bike parks, earthwork contractors, civil engineering firms, construction equipment rental companies, local governments, landscaping companies, forestry service providers, tourism regions, and all owners of mini excavators.<\/p><h2>Why is the EC-S cost-effective?<\/h2><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The EC-S utilizes existing mini excavators for additional applications. Material can be processed and reused directly on site. This reduces transportation costs, the need to switch machines, and the amount of labor required.<\/p><h2>Is the EC-S a mulcher?<\/h2><p>No. It\u2019s much more than that. The EC-S is a combination machine that serves as a rock crusher, tiller, and mulcher. <br \/>This sets it apart from traditional tillers and mulchers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2beb51c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2beb51c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f4f1b7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"5f4f1b7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/youtu.be\\\/O6jzJ9a-LOQ&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-wrapper elementor-open-inline\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-video\"><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Die Weltneuheit f\u00fcr den Minibagger Der erste &#8222;all-in-one&#8220; Steinbrecher, Fr\u00e4se und Mulcher f\u00fcr den Minibagger.
