WOOD CHIPPER FEATURES

200 mm Drum-Style Hydraulic-Feed Chippers

The Model 4200 AFE has undergone some serious transformation from its predecessor. Some of the most significant changes include the changes to the chipping drum. Fans are added on both sides of the chipping drum to enhance its discharge velocity and ability to chip effortlessly into the back of trailers and trucks. A lock-pin is located at the side of the drum to make blade changing safer and quicker. The larger diameter in-feed rollers climb more easily onto larger branches and the improvements on the hydraulic system allow for increased daily production. The in-feed opening of 260 x 230mm allows operators to chip material with side branches - reducing prep time and saving costs. The chipper and engine are protected by an electronic reversing auto-feed, which ensures that the machine cannot be over-fed, increases chipping blade life and reduces fuel consumption. The hydraulic lift cylinder gives the operator the ultimate control - improving efficiency by crushing side branches and allowing the top feed roller to climb onto large logs with ease. Components that require maintenance are easily accessible, which limits downtime. This engine-driven wood chipper is fitted with a spare wheel and steel toolbox to protect the battery and tools from theft. The Model 4200 AFE wood chipper is built standard on a roadworthy trailer with a brake axle. This wood chipper is also available as PTO to hook behind a tractor or with an electric motor.
