2026 John Deere Ag MH60D Mulching Head 

2026 John Deere AG MH60D Mulching Head

Compact Equipment Attachment

Mulching Heads are built to:

• remove up to 8-inch trees and 12-inch stumps
• shred underbrush and woody materials into beneficial mulch in minutes
• 60-inch high-capacity, smooth rotor design reduces material drag and horsepower requirements

Features May Include: 

Designed for durability and flexibility

Overview

• The MH60D and MH72D Mulching Heads have multiple design features that help make it durable and versatile.

• Heavy-duty mulching door traps material in mulching chamber for finer processing. Door cylinder is inside frame body for better protection.
• Strong steel frame construction and bolt-on skid shoes provide less debris build-up, increased wear resistance, and extended durability.
• Mulching chamber provides more efficient material flow and reduces wear points for optimized shredding performance. Internal counter-combs help shatter incoming material, creating a finer mulch.
• A 1524-mm (60-in.) or 1830-mm (70-in.) high-capacity, smooth rotor design reduces material drag and horsepower requirements. Rotor is balanced for smooth operation, and oversized, 64-mm (2.5-in.) sealed rotor bearings deliver long-term durability.
• Heavy-duty push bar topples trees or brush and helps protect the carrier. Three-position adjustable push bar increases versatility and visibility.
• The MH60D and MH72D Mulching Heads are optimized to work with John Deere skid steer loaders (SSLs) and compact track loaders (CTLs). They are also compatible with most competitive models.

Efficient mulching capabilities

Overview

• Take less time to mulch trees and stumps with the MH60D and MH72D Mulching Heads’ efficient hydraulic system and double-carbide-tipped teeth.

• Remove up to 203-mm (8-in.) trees and 305-mm (12-in.) stumps. Shred underbrush and woody materials into beneficial mulch in minutes.
• Two-speed hydraulic system efficiently uses available horsepower. When preset pressure level is attained, the motor automatically shifts to a higher displacement, increasing torque for reduced stalling and faster rotor-speed recovery time.
• Redesigned mulching chamber provides more efficient material flow and reduces wear points for optimized shredding performance. Internal counter-combs help shatter incoming material, creating a finer mulch.
• 30 double-carbide-tipped teeth on the MH60D, and 36 of the same teeth on the MH72D, take big bites out of trees and stumps to deliver superior large-material knockdown. Also works well below soil level for chewing out stumps.
• Optional knife tools (available through parts) allow smoother cutting and finer chip size.

Prominently positioned pressure gauge

Overview

• Prominently positioned pressure gauge that is visible from the cab lets operators easily monitor hydraulic operating pressure for optimized performance.

• Standard equipment on every mulching head.
• Visible from the cab and color coded to easily determine operating performance of the mulching head hydraulic system.
