Garden Shredder Mulcher and Chipper for Wood, Plants and Garden Waste (FM6DD-MUL)
Mulching and composting just got a whole lot easier and more effective with our patented (GB2100107.8) 6HP Petrol Garden Shredder Mulcher.
We’re always striving to improve our machines to make them the best they can possibly be and to meet our customer’s high expectations which we’ve built over decades of forestry experience. Our newest update features a newly designed exit chute which combats and prevents blockages when mulching and chipping by allowing you to essentially have the length of the chute.
Compact, Lightweight, Powerful and Robust are the best words to describe our brand-new and innovative machine. The first of its kind, the garden shredder is capable of receiving any waste you can throw at it and processing it into precious mulch, crucial in creating effective black gold (compost) for your garden. Plants, leaves or any other garden waste can be fed into the machine and the garden mulcher will provide you with invaluable material for your compost bin in an instant. Our mulcher has been stress tested with anything you can think of and it’s yet to meet garden waste it can’t handle. Wood older than three days may produce sawdust.
What gave us the inspiration for the machine? For years we have received customer enquiries asking if we had a suitable machine for such tasks as well-known competitor brands have tried and failed at this attempt, often falling at the first hurdle of being able to process wet green waste such as grass and ivy. Our machine is a tried and tested one-stop shop for all your mulching needs.
Not sure if you require a garden mulcher or a wood chipper? This is a question of the past as the FM6DD-MUL is perfectly capable of also chipping wood into wood chips that are 10mm and below. If you’re mulching material that is particularly wet or likes to stick to the chute, the machine is designed in such a way that you can simply hose down the chutes to clear out any excess material.
A ground-breaking design implemented within this unique and innovative machine is the ability to completely rotate/adjust the chipper drum to suit the material you’re processing. The full adjustable angle means that you have complete control over the speed at which the machine will mulch. Mulching a hard material? Simply rotate the hopper and chute to be vertical which allows the machine to process the material into the drum and produce a fine mulch result. The easier the material is to cut, the less steep you can rotate the machine to increase mulching speed. This innovative design works to prevent the engine from stalling as you can easily dictate how much material is processed and mulched at once.
How is the FM6DD-MUL Garden Shredder, Mulcher and Chipper better than competitors? Well, our machine is designed and produced using a steel design. You’ll find that the majority of garden shredders available on the market feature a plastic design. Why is steel better than plastic in this instance? The steel design is what allows our machine to be robust and powerful. Plastic designs can damage easily and cause issues down the road. Buy a machine – buy it once, is our motto. 95% of our machine is recyclable metals.
Prefer an electric motor? not a problem! We also have a 4HP Electric Counterpart (FM4DDE-MUL) to this mulcher which is capable of mulching all the same material.

I was very excited to start playing with my new chipper/mulcher. It needed assembling, which at first I was daunted by (the handbook instructions were no help) but the informative YouTube video made by Forest Master, made it a piece of cake. Easy assembly and with some research, I made some adjustments to the exit chute so that it was angled higher off the ground, otherwise the ‘safe’ factory settings it was shipped with (thanks to the boys at the EU) was a ridiculous 3cm from the ground, which meant it clogged within half a second. I also removed the guard so I can put branches with leaves down the chute, otherwise it was too restrictive. I understand it’s a safety feature but I’m NOT putting my hand inside and I’m always very careful with machinery (I’m GenX, born with common sense!).
Overall I’m very pleased. It starts well – I’ve had some blockages which are easily sorted once you understand how the beast runs (first of all it’s a head scratcher). You will always need a socket set close-by when using it, ready for the blockages but other than that, happy days.
I assembled it and started using it in 40 mins, well impressed !!
Assembly was straightforward then it chewed its way through 6 months worth of brash effortlessly. Great machine.
Makes short work of garden waste, and the branches from the trees I cut down passed through quicker than a dodgy curry on a boys night out 😁
