Description
Tyrant Series II Mini Excavator Brush Cutter
The Construction Attachments Tyrant Series II Mini Excavator Brush Cutter is engineered for aggressive brush clearing, vegetation management and land-clearing applications. Designed for excavators from 5,000 to 20,000 lbs., this hydraulic rotary brush cutter combines heavy-duty construction with the ability to cut material up to 6 inches in diameter.
Unlike attachments that limit the versatility of the host machine, the Tyrant Series II maintains full grappling and grubbing capability when used with an excavator thumb. As a result, operators can cut vegetation, move debris and handle material without constantly changing attachments.
Built for Serious Brush Clearing
The Tyrant Series II features a heavy 1-inch blade carrier and a 3/16-inch deck reinforced with 1/4-inch material for demanding cutting applications.
In addition, the recessed carrier design helps protect bolt heads from impact and debris. A fully welded bolt protector further shields critical blade-carrier hardware during operation.

Cut Brush, Saplings & Heavy Vegetation
The Tyrant Series II is designed to turn a mini excavator into a versatile land-clearing machine.
With a cutting capacity of up to 6 inches in diameter, operators can tackle brush, saplings, overgrowth and woody vegetation in areas that may be difficult to reach with conventional mowing equipment.
Because the cutter is excavator-mounted, the operator can also reach slopes, ditch banks, pond edges, fence lines and other difficult terrain where a conventional tractor or skid steer cutter may be less practical.
Full Grappling & Grubbing Capability
One of the Tyrant Series II’s most useful features is its ability to work in combination with an excavator thumb.
After cutting brush or vegetation, the operator can use the thumb and cutter to grapple, grub and reposition material. Therefore, one attachment can perform more of the clearing process before another attachment is needed.
This capability is especially useful for:
- Land clearing
- Brush removal
- Property maintenance
- Right-of-way maintenance
- Trail clearing
- Fence-line cleanup
- Ditch and bank maintenance
- Storm cleanup
- Vegetation management
Hydraulic Performance
The Tyrant Series II uses a 48cc gear-style hydraulic motor and operates across a broad 10–32 GPM hydraulic flow range.
Most importantly, a case drain is not required, simplifying hydraulic connection compared with attachments that require an additional case-drain circuit.
