Wood Chipper

  • Fuel Type: Diesel
  • Power: 74 hp (55.2 kW)
  • Capacity: 12″ x 17″ infeed

Features

The heavy duty Vermeer BC1000XL wood chipper with its all steel engine enclosure is designed to hold up for the long haul.

Key Features

  • Keep up the pace because the BC1000XL comes with a 25-gallon/94.6 L fuel tank that lets you put in more hours before refuelling.
  • Minimize maintenance because once the shield is opened, belts can be changed without tools, and the clutchless PTO system eliminates the need to slide the engine.
  • Provides operator safety with the patented bottom feed stop bar. The four-position upper feed control bar with dual stop positions and forward/reverse feed positions mounts over the feed table, enabling the operator to stop the feed rollers and select forward or reverse operations.
