Bucket MenSe NK 7

Product overview
The MenSe NK 7 weed cutting bucket is an end‑of‑boom attachment for sensitive removal and collection of aquatic and riparian vegetation without extracting soil or disrupting the substrate. Hardened Hardox cutting blades are driven by an automatically redirecting hydraulic current cylinder, delivering steady cutting force and an impact rate up to 300 beats per minute. The blade cuts brush, thickets and rhizomes up to 70 mm in diameter.

Applications

• Clearance and collection of thickets, brushwood and aquatic plants
• Sensitive cleaning, digging or dredging of ditches and water channels
• Operation along fields, roadsides, ditches, beaches, dams and settling basins
• Removal of vegetation from lakes, rivers and similar water bodies while preserving the bottom ecosystem

Design and performance
The unit has a working width of 2.5 m and mounts onto excavators or tractor mowing booms without specialised tools. Hardox blades provide wear resistance. The hydraulic design ensures consistent cutting force, high impact frequency and reliable operation while allowing water to drain from the bucket for efficient material collection.

Benefits

• Selective vegetation removal that preserves the waterway bed and ditch edges
• Faster and often less invasive than traditional dredging, reducing time and operational costs
• Supports effective water flow with positive effects on soil structure and nutrient dynamics
• Robust construction suitable for use in demanding or constrained locations
